中文簡介

微生物是地球上最豐富的生命體，對地球上生命的方方面面都至關(guān)重要。無論是細菌、病毒、古細菌還是真核生物，微生物都會影響它們所居住的每一個生態(tài)位的動態(tài)和功能，包括宿主相關(guān)的生態(tài)位和環(huán)境生態(tài)位。它們的無所不在，再加上它們多樣的代謝體系，意味著它們的活動對于規(guī)模巨大的變化過程至關(guān)重要:從驅(qū)動全球元素生物地球化學循環(huán)，到調(diào)節(jié)單個細胞的功能。自然微生物學對微生物的各個方面都很感興趣，無論是微生物的進化、生理還是細胞生物學;與宿主或環(huán)境的相互作用;或者他們的社會意義?！蹲匀晃⑸飳W》為所有對微生物感興趣的研究人員和決策者提供了一個場所，他們可以在這里共同了解該領域最成功和最重要的進展，并討論當前的熱點問題。作為一份僅供在線閱讀的月刊，我們廣泛的研究范圍確保了所發(fā)表的研究成果能夠接觸到盡可能多的微生物學家。與所有的自然品牌雜志一樣，《自然微生物學》的特點是擁有一支專業(yè)的編輯團隊、公平嚴謹?shù)耐性u審流程、高標準的編輯和生產(chǎn)、快速出版和編輯獨立性。除了發(fā)表原創(chuàng)研究，《自然微生物學》還將發(fā)表與微生物相關(guān)的各個學科的評論、評論、新聞和觀點、特征以及通信。

英文簡介

As the most abundant living entities on our planet, microorganisms are fundamental to every aspect of life on Earth. Whether bacterial, viral, archaeal or eukaryotic in nature, microorganisms impact the dynamics and function of every niche in which they dwell, both host-associated and environmental. Their ubiquity combined with their diverse metabolic repertoire means that their activities are critical to processes with vast variation in scale: from driving global elemental biogeochemical cycles to modulating the function of a single cell.Nature Microbiology is interested in all aspects of microorganisms, be it their evolution, physiology and cell biology; their interactions with each other, with a host or with an environment; or their societal significance. Nature Microbiology provides a place where all researchers and policymakers interested in microorganisms can come together to learn about the most accomplished and significant advances in the field and to discuss topical issues. An online-only monthly journal, our broad scope ensures that the research published reaches the widest possible audience of microbiologists.Like all Nature-branded journals, Nature Microbiology is characterized by a dedicated team of professional editors, a fair and rigorous peer-review process, high standards of copy-editing and production, swift publication and editorial independence.In addition to publishing original research, Nature Microbiology will publish Commentaries, Reviews, News and Views, Features and Correspondence from across the full range of disciplines concerned with microorganisms.
