In the summer of 2015, a wildfire scorched 280,000 acres along the border of Idaho and Oregon. The spark came from lightning.

But most of those studies involved processing the microbe’s DNA, which doesn’t give the sort of lifestyle information that Dorrestein is trying to

It reduces the infecting microbe’s reproductive ability, which lets the animal overcome the disease.

Instead, they decided to rent a colony-picking robot.

It is also important to note that the smaller the particle (say PM1), the easier it is for the microbe to ride on it," she explained.Prof Awas
