The goal of this study is to check whether the current method of monitoring endangered micro-snail populations by soil sampling, which involves killing the snails and altering their microhabitat, could be replaced by a non-lethal method.

متن کاملClassic Spotlight: a Window on Multicellular Development.
In response to nutrient deprivation, myxobacteria form multicellular fruiting bodies filled with spores. These macroscopic aggregates of soil bacteria have intrigued microbiologists since the late 19th century. In recent decades, Myxococcus xanthus has served as a model organism for cellular and molecular studies aimed at characterizing social interactions, intercellular communication, motility...
