Safety Evaluation of Bacillus Isolates From Fermented Tarhana With Probiotic Potential

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Fifty‐three Bacillus strains were isolated from traditional tarhana. MALDI‐TOF MS identified the isolates within the Bacillus subtilis group. None of the isolates harbored the tested virulence genes. The isolates exhibited high tolerance to bile salts and simulated gastric conditions.

Specificity of the AMP-6000 Method for Enumerating Clostridium Endospores in Milk

Foods
Enumeration of endospores of butyric acid-forming clostridia in cheese milk is an essential part of milk quality monitoring for cheese producers to avoid late blowing, severe spoilage caused by clostridia during ripening.

Micrococcus endophyticus strain WH16 oxidizes elemental sulfur in sodic soil: Effect on soil properties and crop performance

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Micrococcus endophyticus is a heterotrophic, plant growth‐promoting endophyte that thrives within the inner tissues of various plants. This study presents the first report on the elemental sulfur (S°) oxidation potential of the M. endophyticus strain WH16, isolated from high sodic soils.

Bacterial Endospores as Phage Genome Carriers and Protective Shells

, 2018
Bacterial endospores can serve as phage genome protection shells against various environmental stresses to enhance microbial control applications. The genomes of polyvalent lytic Bacillus phages PBSC1 and PBSC2, which infect both B.

Can Organic Amendments Override Environmental Filtering of Soil Microbiomes? Evidence From 20 Years Old Agricultural Field Trials in Contrasting Tropical Sites

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
Across four long‐term Kenyan maize trials, site was the dominant driver of microbial community composition and N‐cycling gene abundance. Among organic amendments, farmyard manure most strongly enriched copiotrophic taxa and raised prokaryotic diversity.

Nocturnal production of endospores in natural populations of Epulopiscium-like surgeonfish symbionts [PDF]

, 2005
Prior studies have described a morphologically diverse group of intestinal microorganisms associated with surgeonfish. Despite their diversity of form, 16S rRNA gene surveys and fluorescent in situ hybridizations indicate that these bacteria are low-G+C ...

Nutrient germination improves DNA recovery from industrial Bacillus subtilis endospores during qPCR enumeration assays

Heliyon, 2019
Growth-independent microbial enumeration methods such as quantitative PCR require the efficient extraction of genomic DNA from targeted cells. Bacillus endospores are popular inclusions in commercial products due to their hardiness and metabolic dormancy;

Desiccation tolerance mechanisms in the green lineage and beyond

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 6, Page 3159-3175, September 2026.
Ancient origin and recurrent evolution of desiccation tolerance in the green lineage. Summary Water is essential for life on Earth, yet some plants can survive the near‐complete loss of cellular water, a trait known as desiccation tolerance. Although rare in vegetative tissues of vascular plants, desiccation tolerance is scattered across the plant ...
