Genetic switch to lower nitrogen fertilizer dependency and enhance maize yield

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Transcription factor NCR1 regulates nitrate transporter NRT2.3 and controls root‐to‐shoot nitrogen transport. A superior NCR1 haplotype, lost in modern maize breeding, boosts this process. This discovery enables breeding and biotechnology to develop high‐yielding maize varieties that require less nitrogen fertilizer, reducing agricultural costs and ...

Metagenomic and culture‐based insights into host and plasmid contexts of high‐risk ARGs in poultry farm environments

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Shotgun metagenomics and culture‐based isolate genomics revealed position‐associated high‐risk antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) signals across poultry manure piles and surrounding soils. Culture‐confirmed Enterobacteriaceae and IncHI2A‐related blaNDM‐5 plasmid backgrounds further highlight priority host‐ARG‐plasmid contexts for farm antimicrobial ...

Sorghum T2T pangenome highlights comprehensive genomic variation

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Three newly assembled telomere‐to‐telomere (T2T) genomes representing wild, landrace, and transformable germplasm were integrated with seven publicly available T2T genomes to construct a graph‐based pangenome. Comparative analyses revealed extensive centromere divergence, including distinct CEN137 monomer and CEN274 dimer organization, and showed that ...

Putative trait‐based retention of oral‐derived microbes along the oral–gut axis in bamboo‐eating pandas

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Compared with the two herbivorous comparison species, pandas showed higher estimated oral‐source contributions and enrichment of microbial traits associated with facultative anaerobiosis, biofilm formation, and stress tolerance. These patterns are consistent with a model in which greater oral microbial input and putative host filtering may jointly ...

Chicken‐linked multidrug‐resistant Campylobacter jejuni infections among Chinese children

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Campylobacter is a leading cause of pediatric diarrhea, but its genomic epidemiology and antimicrobial resistance in China remain poorly defined. We conducted genomic surveillance of 3492 children with diarrhea in two pediatric hospitals in Zhejiang Province in 2017, 2018, and 2021, combining culture, whole‐genome sequencing, and source‐attribution ...

Benchmarking gut microbiome indices within and across populations

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
We compared 10 widely used gut microbiome indices in 12,561 American Gut Project participants and 10 external cohorts, testing how well each distinguished people with healthy lifestyles, responded to 79 environmental factors, and associated with 14 chronic conditions. No single index performed best on all three tasks.

Beyond omics: From descriptive profiling to causal and scalable design of fermentation microbiomes

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Fermentation microbiomes play essential roles in food production, feed preservation, waste valorization, and diverse sustainable industrial processes. Although multi‐omics and systems biology have substantially advanced our understanding of their assembly, interactions, and functional dynamics, industrial translation remains constrained by fragmented ...
