New online! Predation in microbial communities: gradients of nutritive killing
dlvr.it
Nature Reviews Microbiology, Published online: 08 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41579-026-01299-7In this Review, Vasse and Velicer explore the phylogenetic and functional diversity of predators of microorganisms, conceptualizing the forms of microbial predation along gradients, including gradients of evolutionary adaptedness for predation and privatization of prey-derived nutrients.
