Acetogenic bacteria are able to convert one‐carbon substrates into acetate through the Wood‐Ljungdahl (WL) pathway. We report a comparative genomic analysis of four acetogenic species with a focus on the genes encoding enzymes of the WL pathway. We found variations in the organization of WL pathway gene clusters and an expansion of protein orthologues.

Adaptation of the Alphaproteobacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides to stationary phase
Summary Exhaustion of nutritional resources stimulates bacterial populations to adapt their growth behaviour. General mechanisms are known to facilitate this adaptation by sensing the environmental change and coordinating gene expression. However, the existence of such mechanisms among the Alphaproteobacteria remains unclear.

Summary White mould of soya bean, caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary, is a necrotrophic fungus capable of infecting a wide range of plants. To dissect the genetic architecture of resistance to white mould, a high‐density customized single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array (52 041 SNPs) was used to genotype two soya bean diversity ...

Transcriptome atlas of Striga germination: Implications for managing an intractable parasitic plant
Witchweeds, parasitic plants of the genus Striga, are nicknamed “cereal killers” because of their devastating destruction of Africa's most staple cereals, including maize, sorghum, millets, and upland rice. The parasite relies on biomolecules emitted from the host roots to germinate and therefore initiate its infectious lifecycle.

While many studies have examined the mechanisms by which extremophilic Deinococci survive exposure to ionizing radiation, very few publications have characterized the cold shock adaptations of this group, despite many species being found in persistent cold environments and environments prone to significant daily temperature fluctuations. Bacterial cold

In this study, the genome of a new thermophilic cyanobacterium, Thermosynechococcaceae cyanobacterium sp. Okahandja, isolated from a hot spring near Okahandja in Namibia, was sequenced. Additionally, cultivations were conducted at elevated temperatures of 40, 50, and 55°C, followed by analyses of the respective adapted proteomes based on the annotated ...

We uncovered junctional adhesion molecule‐A (JAM‐A), one of the transmembrane‐type tight junction proteins (TJPs), promoted breast cancer progression via regulation of amino acid transporter LAT1 using multilayered proteomics. Our findings provide a new insight into a therapeutic strategy, JAM‐A‐targeted therapy ideally combined with LAT1‐targeted ...

Genetic dissection of domestication traits in interspecific chickpea populations
Abstract Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is a pulse crop that provides an integral source of nutrition for human consumption. The close wild relatives Cicer reticulatum and Cicer echinospermum harbor untapped genetic diversity that can be exploited by chickpea breeders to improve domestic varieties.

Evaluation of the genus Thiothrix Winogradsky 1888 (Approved Lists 1980) emend. Aruga et al. 2002: reclassification of Thiothrix disciformis to Thiolinea disciformis gen. nov., comb. nov., and of Thiothrix flexilis to Thiofilum flexile gen. nov., comb nov., with emended description of Thiothrix. [PDF]
Thiothrix is the type genus of the Thiotrichaceae in the Thiotrichales of the 21 Gammaproteobacteria, comprising nine species of sulfur-oxidising filamentous Bacteria, 22 which are variously autotrophic, heterotrophic or have mixed metabolic modes ...
