TL;DR: Analysis of microbial populations and their genetic potential at different depths in the Mariana Trench reveals that hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms are present in great abundance in the deepest seawater on Earth and sheds new light on potential biological processes in this extreme environment.
Comparison of cultivable bacterial communities associated with Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) larvae at different health statuses and growth stages
TL;DR: It was found that Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes were widely distributed in healthy shrimp at all growth stages, but varied in relative abundance among different stages, and could be applied as probiotic candidates to shrimp hatcheries for controlling diseases caused by quorum sensing dependent pathogens.

Comparative genomic analysis reveals the evolution and environmental adaptation strategies of vibrios.
TL;DR: Vibrios have experienced extremely genome expansion events during their evolutionary history, allowing them to develop various functions to spread globally and provide a better knowledge of how the evolutionary process has forged Vibrio genomes to occupy various niches.
Evaluation of a new high-throughput method for identifying quorum quenching bacteria
TL;DR: This method effectively eliminates false positives caused by inhibition of growth of biosensor A136 and alkaline hydrolysis of N-acylhomoserine lactones through normalization of β-galactosidase activities and addition of PIPES buffer, respectively.

Purification and characterization of antibacterial compounds of Pseudoalteromonas flavipulchra JG1.
TL;DR: Pseudoalteromonas flavipulchra JG1 produces a protein PfaP and a range of small-molecule compounds with inhibitory activities against Vibrio anguillarum and brown compound 3, the only brominated compound, showed antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
