Presumptive necrotising fasciitis with concurrent pyothorax in a 9‐month‐old Great Dane

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, November 2026.
Abstract A 9‐month‐old, entire, male Great Dane presented with rapid multi‐limb swelling, pyrexia and diarrhea following initial treatment for presumed gastroenteritis. Diagnostic evaluation revealed septic pleuropneumonia concurrent with rapidly progressive soft tissue infection affecting three limbs.

Prevalence and Diversity Analysis of Candidate Prophages to Provide An Understanding on Their Roles in Bacillus Thuringiensis

Viruses, 2019
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is widely used in producing biological insecticides. Phage contaminations during Bt fermentation can cause severe losses of yields.

Closely Related Vibrio alginolyticus Strains Encode an Identical Repertoire of Caudovirales-Like Regions and Filamentous Phages

Viruses, 2020
Many filamentous vibriophages encode virulence genes that lead to the emergence of pathogenic bacteria. Most genomes of filamentous vibriophages characterized up until today were isolated from human pathogens.

Genomic and Phenotypic Characterization of Two Novel Enterobacter Phages With EDTA‐Enhanced Antibiofilm Activity

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Two novel lytic Enterobacter phages, HHH and RZH, displayed targeted antibiofilm activity against MDR Enterobacter cloacae complex biofilms when combined with EDTA. Activity was strongest within a narrow low‐millimolar EDTA window, reducing biofilm biomass and viable burden, while higher EDTA concentrations shifted the interaction towards antagonism ...

Highly accurate prophage island detection with PIDE

Genome Biology
As important mobile elements in prokaryotes, prophages shape the genomic context of their hosts and regulate the structure of bacterial populations. However, it is challenging to precisely identify prophages through computational methods.

Systematic evaluation of phenotypic variations induced by prophages in a clinical isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

mSystems
With the rise of antibiotic resistance, nosocomial infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa present a significant challenge to healthcare systems. Prophages integrated into bacterial chromosomes play a key role in generating phenotypic and genotypic ...

Genomic and Phenotypic Classification of Staphylococcus Species Isolated From Delhi Air

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Multiple Staphylococcus spp. were isolated from the outdoor polluted air of the Indian Capital, New Delhi. The bacterial samples were collected from 6 different locations, and the whole genome of four Staphylococcus isolates was sequenced in their entirety. This study presents the comparative genomic analysis of these four isolates.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 17, Page 2564-2578, September 2026.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Bacterial Lysis Observation Over Time Assay (BLOTS) for High‐Throughput Isolation, Sequencing, and Characterization of Bacteriophages

Current Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 9, September 2026.
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 ...
