A new automated pipeline for whole genome shotgun sequencing analysis and hazard characterization of microbial pesticides

The paper introduces an automated pipeline for whole-genome sequencing analysis of microbial pesticides to improve hazard characterization and risk assessment.

Common nitrification inhibitors exhibit varied physiological mechanisms on an ammonia-oxidizing microorganism

This study investigates how two nitrification inhibitors affect ammonia-oxidizing archaea, revealing distinct physiological mechanisms.

Isolation of a novel Sphingomonas strain able to degrade the pleuromutilin tiamulin: omic analysis reveals its transformation pathway

The paper isolates a novel Sphingomonas strain capable of degrading tiamulin and uses omics analysis to propose a transformation pathway for the antibiotic.

A fast-track, high-throughput screening platform for biological nitrification inhibitors discovery based on soil relevant ammonia oxidizing strains

This paper introduces a high-throughput screening platform for biological nitrification inhibitors using soil-relevant ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms and validates it with known inhibitors.

Nutritional inter-dependencies and a carbazole-dioxygenase are key elements of a bacterial consortium relying on a Sphingomonas for the degradation of the fungicide thiabendazol

The paper identifies a bacterial consortium degrading thiabendazole, with Sphingomonas playing a central role through a carbazole dioxygenase, and reveals interdependencies between consortium members.
