The Fuhrman Group uses ‘omics data to better understand microbial growth, interactions, and biogeographies. Recent research has been focused on evaluating a promising new approach to simultaneously determine the growth rates of many different kinds of microbes from the within-genome distributions of DNA extracted from mixed populations. Fuhrman Lab postdoc Jesse McNichol elaborates on a pair of recent papers reporting their progress. Continue reading “In the Mix”

Growth rates are central to understanding microbial interactions and community dynamics. The Fuhrman Lab, which uses ‘omics data to seek a better understanding of microbial growth, interactions, and biogeographies has been evaluating a promising new approach to simultaneously determine the growth rates of many different kinds of microbes from the within-genome distributions of DNA extracted from in-situ (mixed) ocean populations.
