Abstract

This article is an editorial published in Frontiers in Microbiology titled "Biology of myxobacteria." It discusses the unique biological features of myxobacteria, which are soil-dwelling organisms that exhibit complex communication and predation behaviors. The article highlights the role of myxobacteria in shaping microbial communities and their potential as biological control agents for protecting crops. It also explores the overlap between developmental biology, predation biology, and myxobacterial ecology. The editorial summarizes several research articles and reviews that contribute to our understanding of myxobacterial biology and their applications in various fields. [Extracted from the article]
