For decades, fungi have been the main source for the discovery of novel antimicrobial drugs. Recent sequencing efforts revealed a still high number of so far unknown “cryptic” secondary metabolites. The production of these metabolites is presumably epigenetically silenced under standard laboratory conditions.

The Microbiology of Olive Mill Wastes
Olive mill wastes (OMWs) are high‐strength organic effluents, which upon disposal can degrade soil and water quality, negatively affecting aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. The main purpose of this review paper is to provide an up‐to‐date knowledge concerning the microbial communities identified over the past 20 years in olive mill wastes using both ...

A Complete Genome Analysis of Toxic Compound Gene Families in the Genus Cordyceps
To evaluate the safety of drug and food homologous properties of Cordyceps species at the genomic level, the complete genomes of 18 Cordyceps strains were sequenced and annotated. Subsequently, their genomic features were compared with those of an additional six Cordyceps strains, and their major secondary metabolites were analyzed using antiSMASH and ...

Short-term heat stress results in diminution of bacterial symbionts but has little effect on life history in adult female citrus mealybugs [PDF]
Mealybugs are sap-feeding insect pests that pose a serious threat to horticulture. The citrus mealybug, Planococcus citri (Risso) (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), like most other mealybug species, harbours two obligate maternally transmitted bacterial ...
