Rutledge & Roberto Amato doi:10.1038/s41579-018-0008-1 Progress   CRISPR-based genomic tools for the manipulation of genetically intractable microorganisms    pp333 - 339 Rebecca S. Shapiro, Alejandro Chavez & James J. Collins doi:10.1038/s41579-018-0002-7 In this Progress article, Collins and colleagues discuss how CRISPR-based analyses in genetically intractable microorganisms, including mycobacteria, fungi and parasites, have enabled the discovery of novel gene functions, the investigation of genetic interaction networks and the identification of virulence factors.   Reviews   Autophagy during viral infection — a double-edged sword    pp341 - 354 Younho Choi, James W. Bowman & Jae U. Jung doi:10.1038/s41579-018-0003-6 Autophagy is crucial for innate and adaptive antiviral immunity; in turn, viruses evade and subvert autophagy to support their replication and pathogenesis. In this Review, Choi, Bowman and Jung discuss the molecular mechanisms that govern autophagy during host–virus interactions.   Streptococcus pneumoniae: transmission, colonization and invasion    pp355 - 367 Jeffrey N. Weiser, Daniela M. Ferreira & James C. Paton doi:10.1038/s41579-018-0001-8 Carriage of Streptococcus pneumoniae on the mucosa of the upper respiratory tract is the prerequisite for transmission and tissue invasion. In this Review, Weiser, Ferreira and Paton summarize the mechanisms that allow pneumococci to transmit and progress from colonizer to pathogen.   The life cycle of non-polio enteroviruses and how to target it    pp368 - 381 Jim Baggen, Hendrik Jan Thibaut, Jeroen R. P. M. Strating & Frank J. M. van Kuppeveld doi:10.1038/s41579-018-0005-4 In recent years, several non-polio enteroviruses (NPEVs) have emerged as serious public health concerns. In this Review, van Kuppeveld and colleagues summarize recent insights from enterovirus research, with a special emphasis on NPEVs, and reflect on how recent discoveries may help in the development of new antiviral strategies.   Perspectives   The social network of microorganisms — how auxotrophies shape complex communities    pp383 - 390 Karsten Zengler & Livia S. Zaramela doi:10.1038/s41579-018-0004-5 Interactions among organisms are not limited to the exchange of electron donors. Most microorganisms are auxotrophs and thus rely on external nutrients for growth. In this Opinion article, Zengler and Zaramela postulate that auxotrophies and nutrient requirements among members of complex communities have profound implications for microbial interactions and thus the overall microbial network.   Amendments & Corrections   Publisher Correction: The life cycle of non-polio enteroviruses and how to target it    p391 Jim Baggen, Hendrik Jan Thibaut, Jeroen R.
