Reduction of Hexavalent Chromium by Stenotrophomonas and Bacillus
Stenotrophomonas and Bacillus remove toxic hexavalent chromium via enzymatic reduction and non‐enzymatic mechanisms. Reductases (e.g., ChrR, HhuH, YhdA, NfrA, Bcr005, NitR, AzoR) use NAD(P)H to convert Cr(VI) to the less toxic Cr(III). ABSTRACT Hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] is a widespread environmental pollutant, posing a significant health risk to ...

Genomic and Ecological Flexibility Shape the Global Distribution of a Black Fungus
Graphical abstract illustrating the integration of ecological and genomic data to explain the global adaptation of the black fungus Elasticomyces elasticus. ABSTRACT Black fungi are among the most stress‐resistant organisms known, yet the genetic and ecological foundations of their extraordinary resilience remain poorly understood.

We previously used whole-genome sequencing and Tn5 transposon mutagenesis to identify 16 critical genes involved in the halotolerance of Halomonas beimenensis, a species in the phylum Proteobacteria. In this present study, we sought to determine if orthologous genes in another phylum are also critical for halotolerance. Virgibacillus spp.
