Psyllids, It’s What’s on the Inside That Counts: Community Cross Talk Facilitates Prophage Interactions

ABSTRACT Despite the availability of massive microbial community data sets (e.g., metagenomes), there is still a lack of knowledge on what molecular mechanisms facilitate cross talk between microbes and prophage within a community context. A study published in mSphere by Jain and colleagues (M. Jain...
