Insights Into Phylogeny, Diversity and Functional Potential of Poseidoniales Viruses

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2025.
Our spatio‐temporal metagenomic study of a subtropical estuary successfully identified viruses and their potential hosts. Viral contigs were detected using a consensus approach comprising geNOMAD and VirSorter2. Through virus‐host predictions, we were able to identify, characterise and propose magroviruses and non‐magroviruses associated with ...

Viruses Infecting a Freshwater Filamentous Cyanobacterium (Nostoc sp.) Encode a Functional CRISPR Array and a Proteobacterial DNA Polymerase B

mBio, 2016
Here we present the first genomic characterization of viruses infecting Nostoc, a genus of ecologically important cyanobacteria that are widespread in freshwater. Cyanophages A-1 and N-1 were isolated in the 1970s and infect Nostoc sp.

Characterization of mycobacteria and mycobacteriophages isolated from compost at the São Paulo Zoo Park Foundation in Brazil and creation of the new mycobacteriophage Cluster U [PDF]

, 2016
Background: A large collection of sequenced mycobacteriophages capable of infecting a single host strain of Mycobacterium smegmatis shows considerable genomic diversity with dozens of distinctive types (clusters) and extensive variation within those ...

Genomic diversification of marine cyanophages into stable ecotypes [PDF]

Environmental Microbiology, 2016
Summary Understanding the structure and origin of natural bacteriophage genomic diversity is important in elucidating how bacteriophages influence the mortality rates and composition of their host communities. Here, we examine the genetic structure and genomic diversification of naturally occurring bacteriophages ...

Adaptive Responses of Cyanobacteria to Phosphate Limitation: A Focus on Marine Diazotrophs

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2024.
Marine diazotrophic cyanobacteria, which are essential for atmospheric nitrogen fixation in low‐nutrient oceans, have developed various strategies to survive under phosphate (Pi) limitation by using high‐affinity transporters and enzymes that break down dissolved organic phosphorus (DOP).

Effects of salinity and nutrient stress on a toxic freshwater cyanobacterial community and its associated microbiome: An experimental study

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 16, Issue 5, October 2024.
This study demonstrated the strong halotolerance of natural Microcystis colonies, which was associated with the production of osmolytes. Bacterial community composition was primarily structured by salinity, followed by time, and differed between the attached and free fractions.
