Citrus Stubborn Disease: Current Insights on an Enigmatic Problem Prevailing in Citrus Orchards
Microorganisms, 2022 Citrus stubborn was initially observed in California in 1915 and was later proven as a graft-transmissible disease in 1942. In the field, diseased citrus trees have compressed and stunted appearances, and yield poor-quality fruits with little market ...

Trachymyrmex septentrionalis Ant Microbiome Assembly Is Unique to Individual Colonies and Castes
mSphere, 2022 Within social insect colonies, microbiomes often differ between castes due to their different functional roles and between colony locations. Trachymyrmex septentrionalis fungus-growing ants form colonies throughout the eastern United States and northern ...

Association of Chorioamnionitis with Aberrant Neonatal Gut Colonization and Adverse Clinical Outcomes. [PDF]
, 2016 ObjectiveChorioamnionitis (inflammation of the placenta and fetal membranes) and abnormal gastrointestinal colonization have been associated with an increased risk of sepsis and death in preterm infants, but whether chorioamnionitis causes abnormal ...

Phase and antigenic variation in mycoplasmas [PDF]
, 2010 With their reduced genome bound by a single membrane, bacteria of the Mycoplasma species represent some of the simplest autonomous life forms. Yet, these minute prokaryotes are able to establish persistent infection in a wide range of hosts, even in the ...

Catabolism in Mollicutes [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1992 The small genome size of mollicutes, and particularly mycoplasmas and ureaplasmas, precludes their possession of the extensive range of metabolic activities present in most other bacterial groups. Demonstrated catabolic activities appear primarily to be associated with energy generation, rather than the provision of substrates for synthetic pathways ...

Respiration-associated components of Mollicutes [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1981 No cytochrome pigments were detected by difference (reduced minus oxidized) spectroscopy at liquid nitrogen temperature in whole-cell preparations or membrane fractions of Acholeplasma axanthum S273, Acholeplasma equifetale N93, Acholeplasma granularum BTS39, Acholeplasma laidlawii B-PG9, Acholeplasma modicum PG-49, Acholeplasma oculi 19L, Mycoplasma ...

Differential metabolism of Mycoplasma species as revealed by their genomes [PDF]
, 2007 The annotation and comparative analyses of the genomes of Mycoplasma synoviae and Mycoplasma hyopneumonie, as well as of other Mollicutes (a group of bacteria devoid of a rigid cell wall), has set the grounds for a global understanding of their ...

Purine and pyrimidine nucleotide metabolism in Mollicutes
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2007 Several mollicute genome projects are underway, offering unique opportunities to study genes and metabolic pathways on a genome-wide scale. Here, we have analyzed the conservation and diversity of purine and pyrimidine metabolism in mycoplasmas.

Microbial genomic taxonomy [PDF]
, 2013 A need for a genomic species definition is emerging from several independent studies worldwide. In this commentary paper, we discuss recent studies on the genomic taxonomy of diverse microbial groups and a unified species definition based on genomics ...
