Microorganisms play crucial roles in water recycling, pollution removal and resource recovery in the wastewater industry. The structure of these microbial communities is increasingly understood based on 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing data. However, such data …
Read PDFMicrobes play fundamental roles in shaping natural ecosystem properties and functions, but do so under constraints imposed by their viral predators. However, studying viruses in nature can be challenging due to low biomass and the …
Read PDFThe impacts of climate change on the Arctic Ocean are manifesting throughout the ecosystem at an unprecedented rate. Of global importance are the impacts on heat and freshwater exchange between the Arctic and North Atlantic …
Read PDFCellular genetic heterogeneity is common in many biological conditions including cancer, microbiome, and co-infection of multiple pathogens. Detecting and phasing minor variants play an instrumental role in deciphering cellular genetic heterogeneity, but they are still …
Read PDFA long-standing challenge in human microbiome research is achieving the taxonomic and functional resolution needed to generate testable hypotheses about the gut microbiota's impact on health and disease. With a growing number of live microbial …
Read PDF<h4>Purpose</h4>This study aims to investigate the antibiotic resistance and virulence factors of <i>Paenibacillus campinasensis</i>, an understudied opportunistic pathogen, through whole-genome sequencing and resistance genes. The findings will contribute to the development of effective clinical strategies …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from an individual <i>Branchellion lobata</i> (the marine leech; Annelida; Clitellata; Hirudinida; Piscicolidae). The genome sequence is 174.1 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 17 chromosomal pseudomolecules. …
Read PDFBACKGROUND: Pseudosulfitobacter pseudonitzschiae is a species within the genus Pseudosulfitobacter, which belongs to the Roseobacteraceae. This family is closely associated with algae and is essential to marine ecosystems, particularly through interactions with phytoplankton. Notably, this …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from an individual <i>Spongilla lacustris</i> (freshwater sponge; Porifera; Demospongiae; Spongillida; Spongillidae). The genome sequence is 248.7 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 23 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from a specimen of <i>Eunapius fragilis</i> (fragile freshwater sponge; Porifera; Demospongiae; Spongillida; Spongillidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 218.91 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.98%) is scaffolded …
Read PDF<h4>Aims</h4>This study aimed to investigate the global genetic diversity, evolutionary relationships, and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) profiles of <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> by performing a comprehensive pan-genome and phylogenetic analysis across worldwide isolates.<h4>Materials and methods</h4>A total of 72,057 …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from an individual <i>Petrosia ficiformis</i> (stone sponge; Porifera; Demospongiae; Haplosclerida; Petrosiidae). The genome sequence is 191.3 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 18 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The …
Read PDFTo investigate the genomic features of rare oral commensals in healthy individuals, we present the draft genome sequences of <i>Staphylococcus hominis</i> strains O226 and O218 and <i>Micrococcus luteus</i> strain O220. All three of these isolates …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Anticancer peptides (ACPs) are increasingly recognized as promising therapeutic candidates due to their ability to selectively target cancer cells. However, the systematic discovery of novel ACPs, particularly from high-throughput sequencing datasets, remains hindered by technical …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from an individual <i>Crambe crambe</i> (Porifera; Demospongiae; Poecilosclerida; Crambeidae). The host genome sequence is 143.20 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 18 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from a specimen of <i>Chondrosia reniformis</i> (kidney sponge; Porifera; Demospongiae; Chondrillida; Chondrillidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 117.37 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.98%) is scaffolded into …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from a specimen of <i>Sepioteuthis lessoniana</i> (bigfin reef squid; Mollusca; Cephalopoda; Myopsida; Loliginidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 5,056.23 megabases. Most of the assembly (86.4%) is scaffolded …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from a specimen of <i>Cliona cf. orientalis</i> (Porifera; Demospongiae; Clionaida; Clionaidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 217.17 megabases. Most of the assembly (98.28%) is scaffolded into 19 …
Read PDF<i>Corynebacterium glycinophilum</i> is an understudied species of this genus, although it has been identified in dairy products as well as the human skin microbiome. Recently, we isolated a strain from the skin of a healthy …
Read PDFBagworms are commonly known for the well-organized case or bag surrounding them constructed using their silk and plant materials. To understand the genetic basis of these unique characteristics in bagworms, we performed multiomics analyses of …
