  • The number of ribosomal operons in bacterial genomes correlates with both growth rate and carbon use efficiency, likely via proteome allocation trade-offs, providing clues into how microbial communities are structured to make best use of available nutrients.

  • Understanding the interactions between bacteria and their viruses (phages) in natural communities is a major challenge. Here, the authors isolate and study large numbers of marine Vibrio bacteria and their phages, and find that lytic interactions are sparse and many phages are host-strain-specific, but nevertheless recombination between some phages is common.

  • Wild populations of bacteria and archaea show high levels of genotypic diversity. In this Review, Cordero and Polz discuss recent studies that show that this diversity arises owing to social and ecological interactions, which have important consequences for microbial ecology and population dynamics.
