In the microscopic battlefield of plant-microbe interactions, plants are constantly fighting off invading bacteria. New research reveals just how clever these bacterial invaders can be.
A bacteria-inspired robot named ZodiAq that swims using flexible flagella—just like microbes do. It’s slow, smart, and surprisingly delicate for something with twelve spinning limbs.
Phytochromes are light sensitive proteins in plants and bacteria. We study their structure and thereby their detailed function. In the future, our research may contribute to the development of plants ...
"This process of DNA transfer, called bacterial conjugation, has long been studied on solid surfaces," said Prof. Ben-Yehuda. "What we found is that in liquid, it's the rotation of the flagella ...
