Cultivation of marine bacteria of the SAR202 clade.
Dr. Yeonjung Lim's cultivation paper on SAR202 bacteria as the first author was officially published in Nature Communications on August 22.
Congratulations! Dr. Lim!
The paper was initially uploaded on the preprint server, bioRxiv, in March. When we were getting discouraged after receiving a rejection letter from a journal, we received the following email from an editor of Nature Communications and therefore we submitted the paper to this journal.
".......I am one of the microbiology editors at Nature Communications. I have read with great interest your bioRxiv manuscript entitled "Cultivation of SAR202 Bacteria from the Ocean".
I fully understand that the paper may already be under consideration elsewhere (and I hope the handling editor receives it with the same enthusiasm I had reading the paper), but I just wanted to send a quick email to let you know that I would be happy to guarantee peer review at Nature Communications if this was submitted to our journal......"
What a positive aspect of the preprint server!
