Looking forward to our final ATCC Genome Portal data release for the year! We'll be releasing 250 new genome assemblies for ATCC bacteria, viruses, and fungi including 15 genome assemblies for 15 bacterial species with no prior existing genome reference, and at least one new genus. Let's go!

Critically evaluating the relative importance of phage in shaping microbial community composition
The ubiquity of bacteriophages (phages) and the major evolutionary and ecological
impacts they can have on their microbial hosts has resulted in phages often cited
as key drivers shaping microbial com...
