Mesorhizobium septentrionale sp nov and Mesorhizobium temperatum sp nov., isolated from Astragalus adsurgens growing in the northern regions of China [PDF]
Ninety-five rhizobial strains isolated from Astragalus adsurgens growing in the northern regions of China were classified into three main groups, candidate species 1, 11 and 111, based on a polyphasic approach.

Clinical usefulness of 16S ribosomal RNA real-time PCR for the diagnosis of scrub typhus
Scrub typhus is a major acute febrile disease in the Asia–Pacific region. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the clinical usefulness of real-time PCR (Q-PCR) of 16S rRNA for the diagnosis of scrub typhus.

16S rRNA Methylase–producing, Gram-Negative Pathogens, Japan
To investigate the exact isolation frequency of 16S rRNA methylase–producing, gram-negative pathogenic bacteria, we tested 87,626 clinical isolates from 169 hospitals. Twenty-six strains from 16 hospitals harbored 16S rRNA methylase genes, which suggests

Variable copy number, intra-genomic heterogeneities and lateral transfers of the 16S rRNA gene in Pseudomonas. [PDF]
Even though the 16S rRNA gene is the most commonly used taxonomic marker in microbial ecology, its poor resolution is still not fully understood at the intra-genus level.

Novel hemotropic mycoplasmas are widespread and genetically diverse in vampire bats [PDF]
Bats (Order: Chiroptera) have been widely studied as reservoir hosts for viruses of concern for human and animal health. However, whether bats are equally competent hosts of non-viral pathogens such as bacteria remains an important open question. Here,
