NewsPlankton may reveal ocean history - and even predict trends in chronic human illness
Tapping an almost century-long survey, University of California San Diego School of Medicine researchers say marine plankton may offer way to monitor historical marine pollution trends; and perhaps be used to predict trends in childhood and adult chronic illnesses.

NewsEngineered microbial community could serve as living carbon sink
A Chinese team of researchers has genetically engineered a microbial community which could serve as a living carbon sink.

NewsNew technique reveals marine microbes’ outsized role in carbon cycle
A small fraction of marine microorganisms are responsible for most of the consumption of oxygen and release of carbon dioxide in the ocean, new research suggests.

NewsToxic bacteria find floating homes on microfibres in the Mediterranean Sea
Almost 200 species of bacteria have colonized microfibres in the Mediterranean Sea, including one that causes food poisoning in humans, according to a new study.

NewsResearchers cultivate ‘impossible’ microbe that can grow on nitrogen while producing methane
Researchers have managed to grow a marine heat-loving methanogen that can turn nitrogen and carbon dioxide into ammonia and methane by using hydrogen.

NewsDisease-resistant corals can rescue their more vulnerable neighbours
Disease-resistant corals can be used to help “rescue” corals that are more vulnerable to disease, according to a study from the University of California, Davis, that monitored a disease outbreak at a coral nursery in Little Cayman, Cayman Islands.

NewsHolographic microscopy lifts lid on the life of microplankton
Researchers can follow the lives of microplankton at the individual level for the first time by making use of holograms created in digital microscopes and interpreted using artificial intelligence (AI).

NewsMarine bacteria take in carbon dioxide through photosynthesis
Researchers in China have identified carbon-dioxide-fixing cells from seawater and determined that their sample contains functioning genes for light harvesting, suggesting that the bacteria engage in photosynthesis.

NewsAttack on two fronts leads ocean bacteria to require carbon boost
The types of ocean bacteria known to absorb carbon dioxide from the air require more energy – in the form of carbon – and other resources when they’re simultaneously infected by viruses and face attack from nearby predators, new research has found.
