Mushuvirus is the most widespread phage genus in the human gut. 🌍
Together with other family members, these viruses occur in 89% of humans worldwide, including the Iceman Ötzi!
How is it possible that they were hidden in previous metagenomic analyses?

In case you missed it: our review titled "Spatial structure: shaping the ecology and evolution of microbial communities" is out! 🚨
Let me hit you with some highlights on why spatial structure matters. (and why you should care!)
Sharing is appreciated 🙏 🧵👇

A single bacteriophage can dominate microbial communities yet only evolves when migration changes its ecological context.
