The paper compares bacterial communities in a Miyawaki forest and adjacent grassland to assess how vegetation structure and management influence soil microbial function and ecosystem services across seasons.

The paper analyzes the mutational cascade leading to the emergence of the omicron SARS-CoV-2 variant using phylogenetic and mutational analysis of genomic data.

The paper investigates hyper-variation and evolution at an LPS locus in Xanthomonas species, revealing convergent evolution and horizontal gene transfer in adapting to different host tissues.

The paper reclassifies 20 bacterial pathovars previously assigned to Xanthomonas axonopodis or Xanthomonas campestris as belonging to Xanthomonas citri based on genome analysis.

The paper analyzes SARS-CoV-2 genomic data from India to identify mutation patterns and variant dominance across two epidemic waves.

This study reclassifies Xylella as a variant Xanthomonas lineage and identifies misclassified relatives through phylo-taxono-genomics and comparative analysis.

This study uses whole-genome analysis of 182 Leuconostoc strains to reveal sixteen species, including three novel genomospecies, and highlights their biotechnological potential.

The paper reports the complete genome sequence of an XDR Stenotrophomonas maltophilia strain, revealing novel genomic features and resistance mechanisms.

The paper reports whole genome sequences of non-pathogenic Xanthomonas strains from citrus, revealing genomic diversity and potential taxonomic outliers related to pathogenic species.
