  • The efficiency of horizontal gene transfer between different bacterial lineages is often unclear. Here, Figueroa et al. show that lateral transduction is the primary driver of gene exchange between Staphylococcus aureus lineages, and immune-deficient mutants enable the spread of new genetic trait

  • The bacterium Legionella pneumophila can cause severe respiratory infection, but is typically a symbiont of free-living amoeba. Here, the authors analyse the genomes of 902 clinical and environmental isolates, and identify a bacterial gene that is strongly associated with human infection and confers resistance to complement-mediated killing.

  • A global network of researchers was formed to investigate the role of human genetics in SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 severity; this paper reports 13 genome-wide significant loci and potentially actionable mechanisms in response to infection.
