The inactivation of enzymes belonging to the central carbon metabolism, a novel mechanism of developing antibiotic resistance

This paper identifies a novel mechanism of antibiotic resistance in Stenotrophomonas maltophilia through the inactivation of central carbon metabolism enzymes, not through known resistance mechanisms like efflux or target modification.

Detection of novel allelic variations in soybean mutant population using Tilling by Sequencing

The paper uses TILLING-by-Sequencing to detect novel allelic variations in a soybean mutant population generated by EMS mutagenesis, identifying mutations in FAD2-1A and FAD2-1B genes.
