Vacuum‐ultraviolet circular dichroism spectroscopy using synchrotron radiation is operated at the Research Institute for Synchrotron Radiation Science (HiSOR), Hiroshima University. By combining the circular dichroism technique with bioinformatics, molecular dynamics, and linear dichroism, the spectral analysis methods have been advanced, enabling ...

Update of the list of QPS‐recommended biological agents intentionally added to food or feed as notified to EFSA 14: suitability of taxonomic units notified to EFSA until March 2021 [PDF]
[EN] The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) approach was developed to provide a regularly updated generic pre-evaluation of the safety of biological agents, intended for addition to food or feed, to support the work of EFSA's Scientific Panels.

Abstract The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) process was developed to provide a harmonised safety assessment approach to support EFSA Scientific Panels and Units. The QPS approach assesses the taxonomic identity, body of relevant knowledge and safety concerns of microorganisms intentionally added to the food and feed chain.

The majority of the matrix protein TapA is dispensable for Bacillus subtilis colony biofilm architecture [PDF]
Biofilm formation is a co-operative behaviour, where microbial cells become embedded in an extracellular matrix. This biomolecular matrix helps manifest the beneficial or detrimental outcome mediated by the collective of cells.

Isolation of a Novel Plant Growth‐Promoting Dyella sp. From a Danish Natural Soil
Natural soils harbour untapped beneficial microbes. We screened for plant growth‐promoting bacteria isolated from Arabidopsis grown in an alder swamp soil collected in Danish nature and identified a new bacterial species, Dyella sp. A4, which modulates root architecture and enhances biomass of Arabidopsis and tomato.

Complete Genome Sequence of Bacillus paralicheniformis MDJK30, a Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacterium with Antifungal Activity [PDF]
ABSTRACT Bacillus paralicheniformis MDJK30 was isolated from the rhizosphere of a peony. It could control the pathogen of peony root rot. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of B. paralicheniformis MDJK30. Eleven secondary metabolism gene clusters were predicted.

Can Metagenomic Analyses Be Used Effectively in Safe Food Production?
This graphical abstract illustrates the metagenomic workflow applied in food safety. It outlines the process from microbial detection in food matrices to genome‐level identification via next‐generation sequencing (NGS). The visualization emphasizes the integration of modern sequencing technologies to assess foodborne pathogens and microbial communities

Using certain endophytic bacteria as biocontrol agents against bacterial speck disease of tomato
Background Bacterial speck, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst), is a major constraint to tomato production worldwide and the limited efficacy of chemical control indicates that there are sustainable alternatives.

In this study, we isolated culturable bacteria associated with oceanic sediments and studied their production of secondary metabolites using metabolomics and genetic screening. Bacteria were cultivated from depths as great as 2000 m below sea level, with the majority of culturable taxa from all sampling sites belonging to the Pseudomonadota phylum. Our
