abstract：:Our perspective on nature has changed throughout history and at the same time has affected directly or indirectly our perception of biological processes. In that sense, the "fluxus" of information in a viral population arises a result of a much more complex process than the encoding of a protein by a gene, but as the ...

A main premise for evaluating microbial communities associated with root-soil compartments is their successful separation into the rhizosphere (soil-root interface), the rhizoplane (root surface), and the endosphere (inside roots). We evaluated...
