Dehydrated pork manure by-product: effect of a chitosan amendment on bacterial community and common scab incidence [PDF]
, 2009 Chitosan amendment modified the composition of a microbial community associated with dehydrated pork manure by-product. The amended product (biosolid PC) contained a lower number of anaerobic bacteria than the non-amended product (biosolid P).

Pearl Millet Genetic Traits Shape Rhizobacterial Diversity and Modulate Rhizosphere Aggregation
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Root exudation contributes to soil carbon allocation and also to microbial C and energy supply, which subsequently impacts soil aggregation around roots. Biologically-driven soil structural formation is an important driver of soil fertility.

Complete genome assembly and characterization of an outbreak strain of the causative agent of swine erysipelas – Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae SY1027 [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae is the causative agent of animal erysipelas and, to a fewer occurrences, human erysipeloid. It is ubiquitous in nature and commensal in diverse species of animals, wild or domestic, from mammals and birds to ...

Evolution of ribonuclease H genes in prokaryotes to avoid inheritance of redundant genes [PDF]
, 2007 Background A theoretical model of genetic redundancy has proposed that the fates of redundant genes depend on the degree of functional redundancy, and that functionally redundant genes will not be inherited together.

Identification and classification of known and putative antimicrobial compounds produced by a wide variety of Bacillales species [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2016 Gram-positive bacteria of the Bacillales are important producers of antimicrobial compounds that might be utilized for medical, food or agricultural applications. Thanks to the wide availability of whole genome sequence data and the development of specific genome mining tools, novel antimicrobial compounds, either ribosomally- or non-ribosomally ...

Control of expression of the RNases J1 and J2 in bacillus subtilis [PDF]
, 2014 In Bacillus subtilis, the dual activity 5' exo- and endoribonucleases J1 and J2 are important players in mRNA and stable RNA maturation and degradation. Recent work has improved our understanding of their structure and mechanism of action and identified ...

Biochemical and mutational analysis of a novel nicotinamidase from Oceanobacillus iheyensis HTE831. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Nicotinamidases catalyze the hydrolysis of nicotinamide to nicotinic acid and ammonia, an important reaction in the NAD(+) salvage pathway. This paper reports a new nicotinamidase from the deep-sea extremely halotolerant and alkaliphilic Oceanobacillus ...
