We report the draft genome of a cadmium-resistant <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> strain, PR5 (6.36 Mb, 66.5% GC, 5,934 genes). Genomic analysis revealed it contains genes for metal detoxification, transport, biofilm formation, and chemotaxis. The analysis reveals …
Read PDFThis study reports the draft genome sequence of <i>Flavobacterium</i> sp. MAHUQ-57, a strain isolated from the soil sample of a rice field located in Dighalgram, Magura, Bangladesh, in 2019. The genome consists of a 3,472,804 …
Read PDFEndophytic bacteria play a key role in agricultural ecosystems, as they can affect the availability of various compounds, crop yield and growth, and provide resistance to diseases and pests. Therefore, the study of endophytes of …
Read PDFBACKGROUND: The soil-dwelling Rhabdocoela flatworm, Luticola nematophagus, recently identified as a specialized predator of plant-parasitic nematodes such as Meloidogyne incognita, demonstrates considerable potential as a biocontrol agent for agricultural nematode diseases. This study presents the …
Read PDFThe reference genomes of Culex laticinctus, Culex modestus, Culex perexiguus, and Culex theileri offer crucial resources for exploring the genetic basis of vector competence for different pathogens, including the emerging West Nile virus. Each genome …
Read PDFRepbase and Dfam, the two foundational resources for transposable element annotation, are being unified into a single, fully open access framework, with Repbase released under CC-0 and its core curation team joining the Dfam project.
Read PDFDe novo genome assembly allows for the genome reconstruction of an organism without using a reference sequence. Assembly results depend on various sequencing technologies that generate data with differing fidelity, read lengths, and coverage levels, …
Read PDFTriplophysa erythraea, a distinctive blind cave fish endemic to Hunan's karst caves, faces significant threats due to its restricted range and fragile habitat. The high-quality genome assembly offers essential data for developing conservation strategies, and …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) causes significant respiratory infections, particularly in young children and elderly adults. Genetic variations in the fusion (F) protein can reduce the efficacy of vaccination and monoclonal antibody treatments, emphasizing the need …
Read PDFWe present the draft genome sequence of a fluconazole-resistant <i>Candidozyma auris</i> isolate obtained from a Peruvian referral hospital. <i>C. auris</i> is an emerging pathogenic yeast of significant public health concern due to its antifungal resistance, …
Read PDFWe report the draft genome sequence of <i>Scenedesmus bijugus var. obtusiusculus</i> AT-UAM, a CO<sub>2</sub>-tolerant and lipid-producing microalga isolated from Cuatro Ciénegas, México. The strain shows potential for biotechnological applications due to its adaptability and high …
Read PDFDespite remarkable advances in sequencing technologies and automated genome assembly algorithms, manual gap-filling remains indispensable for achieving telomere-to-telomere (T2T) genome assemblies, a process that can take weeks or even months. Additionally, these tasks require advanced …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>De novo genome assembly poses challenges when dealing with highly degraded DNA samples or ultrashort sequencing reads. Probabilistic approaches have been offered to enhance the algorithms, though existing methods rely solely on expected k-meric frequencies …
Read PDFWe sequenced seven herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV2) clinical isolates circulating between 2000 and 2014 in Finland. Few HSV2 virus isolates have been sequenced from Europe, particularly from Nordic countries. These sequences expand our knowledge …
Read PDFThis study presents the draft genome sequence of <i>Enterococcus raffinosus</i> strain MEBT1, isolated from the feces of children with diarrhea in Bangladesh on 1 January 2024. The assembled genome comprises 4,423,302 bp distributed across 162 …
Read PDFThe gobies represent the most species-rich family of marine fishes and occupy a remarkable range of ecological niches. Despite their abundance and key role in coastal ecosystems, Mediterranean gobies remain underrepresented in genomic resources. The …
Read PDFNotwithstanding the ecological significance of the Cladosporium genus, which includes several cosmopolitan fungi reported as saprobes, plant pathogens, and causes of allergic and cutaneous diseases in humans, only 41 genomes have been reported. Here, we …
Read PDFTransposable elements (TEs) are found in nearly all eukaryotic genomes. Despite significant advances in the sequencing of genomes, TE resources remain sparse, leading to a lack of traceability, reproducibility, and duplication of effort when annotating …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Pattern matching is a fundamental challenge in bioinformatics, especially in the fields of genomics, transcriptomics and proteomics. Efficient indexing structures, such as suffix arrays, are critical for searching large datasets. A sparse suffix array (SSA) …
Read PDFAccurate discrimination between closely related mahseer species remains a persistent taxonomic challenge, particularly for <i>Tor tambra</i> and <i>Tor tambroides</i>, which exhibit strong morphological similarity and limited resolution using mitochondrial DNA markers. In this study, we …
