Time-resolved effects of cold atmospheric plasma on E. coli GW-AmxH19 transcriptome and proteome in an emulated wastewater environment

This study examines the time-resolved transcriptomic and proteomic changes in E. coli after cold atmospheric plasma treatment in an emulated wastewater environment, revealing both immediate damage responses and delayed prophage activation.

Spore type-specific gene expression profiles underlying development and leaf infection processes of Colletotrichum graminicola

This study compares gene expression profiles of two spore types in Colletotrichum graminicola during development and infection, revealing distinct transcriptomes and functional differences.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) primary degradation products affect c-di-GMP-, cAMP-signaling and quorum sensing (QS) in Vibrio gazogenes DSM 21264

This study shows that PET degradation products BHET and TPA affect signaling pathways in Vibrio gazogenes, impacting biofilm formation and colony morphology.

Isolation and characterization of Sporomusa carbonis sp. nov., a carboxydotrophic hydrogenogen in the genus of Sporomusa isolated from a charcoal burning pile

This study isolates and characterizes a new bacterial species, Sporomusa carbonis, from a charcoal burning pile, describing its genomic and metabolic features.

A single pathogen-secreted protein reprograms plants for drought resilience

The paper identifies a pathogen-secreted protein that reprograms plant cells to enhance drought resilience by inducing tracheary element formation.

Knock-down of genes essential for homoacetogenic growth using sugar inducible promoters in the thermophile Thermoanaerobacter kivui

This paper develops sugar-inducible promoters in Thermoanaerobacter kivui to enable controlled gene knock-down and study metabolic pathways.

Genome-based metabolic and phylogenomic analysis of the type strains of Terrisporobacter mayombei, Terrisporobacter petrolearius and Terrisporobacter glycolicus.

The paper reports complete genome sequences of three Terrisporobacter type strains, analyzes their metabolic pathways, and proposes a reclassification of isolates based on phylogenomic analysis.

Tax4Fun2: a R-based tool for the rapid prediction of habitat-specific functional profiles and functional redundancy based on 16S rRNA gene marker gene sequences

Tax4Fun2 predicts habitat-specific functional profiles and redundancy from 16S rRNA gene sequences using user-defined genomic information.

No evidence for a bovine mastitis Escherichia coli pathotype

The paper investigates the MPEC pathotype hypothesis by comparing genomes of bovine mastitis-associated E. coli and commensal isolates, finding no specific pathogenic traits unique to MAEC.
