Abstract

Spying on microbial communities, cell by cell: Within any community of organisms, gene expression is heterogeneous, which can manifest in genetically identical individuals having a different phenotype. One has to look at individuals in context and analyze patterns in both space and time to see the full picture. Aiming to fill a gap in current methods, Dar et al . developed a transcriptome-imaging method named parallel sequential fluorescence in situ hybridization (par-seqFISH). They applied this technique to the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa , focusing on biofilms where growth conditions can change at microscopic scale. Development of these communities, as revealed by mRNA composition, were followed in space and time. The results revealed a heterogeneous phenotypic landscape, with oxygen availability shaping the metabolism at a spatial scale of microns within a single contiguous biofilm segment. This tool should be applicable to complex microbial communities in the environment and the human microbiome. —MAF

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
