The secret 'sex life' of bacteria: Study challenges old ideas about how species are formed

  • No comments
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have found that bacteria not only create species, but also maintain them in a unique process reminiscent of sexual reproduction.

How can you tell if a green sea turtle will grow up to be male or female?

Researchers analyze the DNA and hormonal profile of the green turtles to understand their physiology, development and reproduction and ensure their survival
Microscope image: The image, taken with a fluorescent microscope, shows a large amount of viruses (the small dots) attacking archaea (the large dots). For the purpose of photography, seawater was taken, filtered to get rid of large cells such as algae and most of the bacterial cells, and the DNA was stained with a fluorescent substance that binds to it.
