Microneedle‐Based Biofertilizer Delivery Improves Plant Growth Through Microbiome Engineering

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This figure shows how microneedles are used to deliver biofertilizers to enhance plant growth through microbial migration, metabolic reprogramming, and changes in plant endogenous microbiome. Abstract This study presents a microneedle‐based system for the delivery of rhizospheric biofertilizers into plant tissues to enhance growth.

An improved bacterial single-cell RNA-seq reveals biofilm heterogeneity

eLife
In contrast to mammalian cells, bacterial cells lack mRNA polyadenylated tails, presenting a hurdle in isolating mRNA amidst the prevalent rRNA during single-cell RNA-seq. This study introduces a novel method, ribosomal RNA-derived cDNA depletion (RiboD),

Secreted bacterial RNA: an unexplored avenue [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2018
Gradually, it is becoming clear that our well-being depends significantly on the contribution and composition of microorganisms that are associated with us. The majority of human-associated microorganisms are bacteria, which maintain their niche through interactions with the human host and neighboring microorganisms.

Optimized Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends (RACE) for Mapping Bacterial mRNA Transcripts

BioTechniques, 2000
A simple, efficient and sensitive RACE-based procedure was developed for the determination of unknown 5′ regions from bacterial cDNA. A number of critical modifications were made to the standard RACE method, including the optimization of the RNA ...

Fluid Shear‐Controlled Pro/Anti‐Inflammatory Osteomodulatory Construct for Drug‐Free Immune Activation Through Cationic Ion Channel Activation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printed PCL scaffold coated with Arginine was laminated with electrospun polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibers containing cationic cellulose nanocrystals (PVA@cCNC). This created nanoisland‐like regions of aligned and random cCNC‐rich fibers. The composite scaffold, under fluid shear stimulation, modulated macrophage polarization from M1 to M2 ...

Characterizing living ocular bacterial communities and the effects of antibiotic perturbation in house finches

MicrobiologyOpen
DNA‐based methods to measure the abundance and relative abundance of bacterial taxa can be skewed by the presence of dead or transient bacteria. Consequently, the active, functional members of the community may be a small subset of the detected bacterial

RNA-seq reproducibility of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in laboratory models of cystic fibrosis

Microbiology Spectrum
Reproducibility is a fundamental expectation in science and enables investigators to have confidence in their research findings and the ability to compare data from disparate sources, but evaluating reproducibility can be elusive. For example, generating

The Lifetime of Bacterial Messenger RNA

, 1963
Puromycin, an inhibitor of protein synthesis, appears to act as an inhibitor at additional sites during the induction of {beta}-galactosidase synthesis. No inhibition of the reactions proceeding during the first 20 seconds of induction was observed, but puromycin seems to prevent the accumulation of messenger RNA during the period between 20 seconds ...
