New pre-print out \o/ All about CRISPR, metagenomes, and what you learn when you collect (a lot of) spacers from natural communities, with @apcamargo.bsky.social @urineri.bsky.social @lhug.bsky.social but also Uri Gophna, Nikhil George (not on Bsky I think) & others at JGI doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Early-life development of the gut virome and plasmidome: A longitudinal study in cesarean-born infants This study explores the dynamics of mobile genetic elements in the infant gut after cesarean birth. Fernández-Pato et al. show that early infant gut mobilome is highly individual-specific and shaped by feeding mode. Antibiotic exposure at birth has minimal effect, and early mother–infant strain-sharing is rarely detected.
