  • Biosignatures based on Earth-like metabolism might miss alien life. The authors’ minimal model shows that self-replication with ecological competition naturally produces spatially ordered energy gradients in chemical resources—providing an agnostic signature of life.

  • Many microbes grow diauxically, utilizing resources one at a time rather than simultaneously. This study developed a minimal model of diauxic microbial communities assembling in a serially diluted culture, providing testable predictions for the assembly of natural as well as synthetic communities of diauxically shifting microorganisms.

  • Understanding a complex microbial ecosystem such as the human gut microbiome requires information about both microbial species and the metabolites they produce and secrete. Here, the authors propose an ecology-based computational method to predict hundreds of new experimentally untested cross-feeding interactions in the human gut microbiome.

  • An unsupervised, annotation-free method is developed that can identify microbial functional groups on the basis of variation in microbiome data and environmental variables. Here, the authors demonstrate its application in several different datasets including the Tara oceans microbiome and animal gut microbiomes.

  • The authors conduct experiments with soil microbes grown in communities with increasing numbers of available carbon sources, each of which can support variable numbers of species. The results show that each additional resource enables only one to two additional species to grow, lower than expectations.

  • Tribocharging, or the buildup of charge on surfaces after they are rubbed together, can play unusual roles in material behavior, yet it is unclear how nanostructuring impacts charge buildup and distribution. Here, authors use replica molding to localize and pattern charges around nanocup rims.

  • Measuring the heath of urban greenery is costly but important. This Review presents the advantages and trade-offs of technology-supported tools to measure the health of urban greenery and highlights the importance of high-resolution urban greenery data to support cities in achieving Sustainable Development Goals.
