PULLMAN, Wash. - Washington State University researchers have for the first time grown the bacteria in a laboratory that causes Citrus Greening Disease, considered the world's most harmful citrus ...

Scientists at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel have generated strains of the bacterium Escherichia coli that consume just CO 2 as their nutrient source, instead of organic compounds. They ...

As scientists continue their exploration of the thousands of organisms that live inside our body, a new study is showing just how much one “good” bacteria can be exploited to its host’s advantage.

The bacterium Rhodococcus ruber eats and actually digests plastic. This has been shown in laboratory experiments by Ph.D. student Maaike Goudriaan at Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research (NIOZ ...

Researchers at the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences are leveraging a new National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant to advance their mechanistic insights into gut microbes.

Being able to grow the elusive and poorly understood bacterium, Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas), will make it easier for researchers to find treatments for the disease that has destroyed ...
