Pollen has a microbiome. The mode of birth and breastfed status correlates with alterations in the gut microbiome and urine metabolome of children. A catalog of the gut microbiome of the Tyrolean Iceman and ancient bacteria strains. And, the first evidence that phages coordinate their lysis–lysogeny (active-dormant) phases with each other, and even inter-generationally, via small molecule signalling.
