ArdA genes from pKM101 and from B. bifidum chromosome have a different range of regulated genes

Heliyon, 2023
The ardA genes are present in a wide variety of conjugative plasmids and play an important role in overcoming the restriction barrier. To date, there is no information on the chromosomal ardA genes.

Flagellar Genes Are Associated with the Colonization Persistence Phenotype of the Drosophila melanogaster Microbiota

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
In this work, we use Drosophila melanogaster as a model to identify bacterial genes necessary for bacteria to colonize their hosts independent of the bulk flow of diet.

Occurrence of antibiotic resistance genes and potentially pathogenic bacteria in the Yangtze River tributary (Nanjing section) and their correlation with environmental factors

Environmental Research Communications, 2023
Freshwater environments are vulnerable to emerging contaminants such as Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), and their occurrence is gaining more attention. However, the occurrence of ARGs along with potential pathogens is less explored. The current study

The Composition and Spatial Patterns of Bacterial Virulence Factors and Antibiotic Resistance Genes in 19 Wastewater Treatment Plants. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Bacterial pathogenicity and antibiotic resistance are of concern for environmental safety and public health. Accumulating evidence suggests that wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are as an important sink and source of pathogens and antibiotic ...

Bt, Not a Threat to Propylea japonica

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Given the ever-increasing commercial planting of transgenic plants across the world, an evaluation of their impacts on non-target organisms is as an important part of the risk assessment process.

Evolutionary Conservation of Bacterial Essential Metabolic Genes across All Bacterial Culture Media. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
One of the basic postulates of molecular evolution is that functionally important genes should evolve slower than genes of lesser significance. Essential genes, whose knockout leads to a lethal phenotype are considered of high functional importance, yet ...

Genome-wide association analysis identifies resistance loci for bacterial blight in a diverse collection of indica rice germplasm [PDF]

, 2017
Bacterial blight, which is caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), is one of the most devastating rice diseases worldwide. The development and use of disease-resistant cultivars have been the most effective strategy to control bacterial blight ...

Genome-wide identification of bacterial plant colonization genes. [PDF]

PLoS Biology, 2017
Diverse soil-resident bacteria can contribute to plant growth and health, but the molecular mechanisms enabling them to effectively colonize their plant hosts remain poorly understood. We used randomly barcoded transposon mutagenesis sequencing (RB-TnSeq)

Identification of responsive genes and analysis of genes with bacterial-inducible cis-regulatory elements in the promoter regions in Oryza sativa L.

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2020
Bacterial blight of rice caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is one of the most critical diseases in rice.  In order to study rice responsive genes to bacterial stress, microarray data were retrieved from GEO dataset. To identify the responsive

Bacterial autolysins trim cell surface peptidoglycan to prevent detection by the Drosophila innate immune system

eLife, 2014
Bacteria have to avoid recognition by the host immune system in order to establish a successful infection. Peptidoglycan, the principal constituent of virtually all bacterial surfaces, is a specific molecular signature recognized by dedicated host ...
