Abstract Phages remain severely under‐sampled, largely due to the limitations of current isolation methods, which are labor‐intensive, low‐throughput, and often restricted to a narrow set of bacterial hosts. To address this gap, we developed a robust and scalable field‐to‐genome workflow that leverages laboratory automation to screen environmental ...

Characterizing the Diversity of Cluster R Prophage in Mycobacterium abscessus [PDF]
Mycobacterium abscessus is a mycobacterial pathogen responsible for pulmonary and disseminated infections in susceptible individuals and often is resistant to all antibiotic therapies, with cure rates ranging from 25% to 58% (Degiacomi et al., 2019 ...

Genotyping and characterization of prophage patterns in clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus
Objective Staphylococcus aureus is considered an important pathogen with a variety of virulence factors in communities and hospitals all around the world. Prophage typing is a practical technique for categorizing this bacterium. In this study, we focused

An integrative metagenomic framework combining sequence, structural, and functional inference reveals a phylogenetically diverse and structurally conserved repertoire of putative beta‐lactamases across Antarctic soil microbiomes, with predominance of class A and subclass B3 enzymes and limited but detectable associations with mobile genetic elements ...

State of prophage Mu DNA upon induction
We have compared the process of prophage lambda induction with that of prophage Mu. According to the Campbell model, rescue of lambda DNA from the host DNA involves reversal of lambda integration such that the prophage DNA is excised from the host ...

Evidence tiers for strain‐resolved long‐read metagenomics
Long‐read metagenomics links variants, repeats, and mobile elements across individual molecules and can reveal lineage turnover that is obscured at the species level. The strength of the resulting inference, however, depends on the type and genomic span of the recovered linkage. We distinguish four evidence units—strain profiles, local haplotype blocks,

Inoculation of select rhizobacterial strains to enhance crop health is a growing field in sustainable agriculture. This study conducts a comparative genomic analysis of five plant‐beneficial rhizobacterial strains (Acidovorax radicis N35, Bacillus subtilis B171, Bacillus velezensis FZB42 Rhizobium radiobacter F4 and Pseudomonas simiae WCS417r ...

Atmospheric Microbial Transport to Antarctica and Its Ecological Implications: A Systematic Review
Atmospheric transport to Antarctica operates via long‐range advection, marine aerosolization, and local resuspension, acting as a strict ecological filter. This selective barrier could actively shape local ecosystems by seeding them with functionally distinct, stress‐adapted microbial pioneers capable of surviving extreme conditions.
