      description => protected'In natural habitats, nutrient availability limits bacterial growth. We disco
         vered that bacteria can overcome this limitation by acquiring nutrients by l
         ysing neighboring cells through contact-dependent antagonism. Using single-c
         ell live imaging and isotopic markers, we found that during starvation, the 
         type VI secretion system (T6SS) lysed neighboring cells and thus provided nu
         trients from lysing cells for growth. Genomic adaptations in antagonists, ch
         aracterized by a reduced metabolic gene repertoire, and the previously unexp
         lored distribution of the T6SS across bacterial taxa in natural environments
          suggest that bacterial antagonism may contribute to nutrient transfer withi
         n microbial communities in many ecosystems.' (727 chars)

      description => protected'Microbiome metabolism underlies numerous vital ecosystem functions. Individu
         al microbiome members often perform partial catabolism of substrates or do n
         ot express all of the metabolic functions required for growth. Microbiome me
         mbers can complement each other by exchanging metabolic intermediates and ce
         llular building blocks to achieve a collective metabolism. We currently lack
          a mechanistic framework to explain why microbiome members adopt partial met
         abolism and how metabolic functions are distributed among them. Here we argu
         e that natural selection for proteome efficiency—that is, performing essen
         tial metabolic fluxes at a minimal protein investment—explains partial met
         abolism of microbiome members, which underpins the collective metabolism of 
         microbiomes. Using the carbon cycle as an example, we discuss motifs of coll
         ective metabolism, the conditions under which these motifs increase the prot
         eome efficiency of individuals and the metabolic interactions they result in
         . In summary, we propose a mechanistic framework for how collective metaboli
         c functions emerge from selection on individuals.' (1113 chars)

      description => protected'Communities of interacting microorganisms play important roles across all ha
         bitats on Earth. These communities typically consist of a large number of sp
         ecies that perform different metabolic processes. The functions of microbial
          communities ultimately emerge from interactions between these different mic
         roorganisms. To understand the dynamics and functions of microbial communiti
         es, we thus need to know the nature and strength of these interactions. Here
         , we quantified the interaction strength between individual cells in microbi
         al communities. We worked with synthetic communities of <em>Escherichia coli
         </em> bacteria that exchange metabolites to grow. We combined single-cell gr
         owth rate measurements with mathematical modelling to quantify metabolic int
         eractions between individual cells and to map the spatial interaction networ
         k in these communities. We found that cells only interact with other cells i
         n their immediate neighbourhood. This short interaction range limits the cou
         pling between different species and reduces their ability to perform metabol
         ic processes collectively. Our experiments and models demonstrate that the s
         patial scale of biotic interaction plays a fundamental role in shaping the e
         cological dynamics of communities and the functioning of ecosystems.' (1284 chars)
