ABSTRACT We report the complete genome sequence of Variovorax sp. EBFNA2, a fava bean nodule endophyte. The strain appears to be a new species, and its genome provides insight into its interactions with host plants and potential to promote plant growth and crop yield.
Tuber brumale and Tuber indicum (Pezizomycetes) are two edible black truffles establishing ectomycorrhizal symbiosis with trees and shrubs. T. brumale is ubiquitous in Europe, and T. indicum is mainly found in China. Here, we present the draft genome sequences of T. brumale and T. indicum .
ABSTRACT We report the genome sequences of four Endozoicomonas sp. strains isolated from the octocoral Litophyton maintained long term at an aquarium facility. Our analysis reveals the coding potential for versatile polysaccharide metabolism; Type II, III, IV, and VI secretion systems; and the biosynthesis of novel ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides.
ABSTRACT A randomly barcoded transposon insertion sequencing (RB-TnSeq) library of Novosphingobium aromaticivorans DSM12444 was grown in media containing either glucose or the β-5-linked aromatic dimer dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol (DC-A) as the sole carbon source. The cultures were grown to saturation and then sequenced, yielding the barcode abundance data sets presented here.
ABSTRACT The transcriptomes of a 2-pyrone-4,6-dicarboxylic acid-producing strain of Novosphingobium aromaticivorans DSM12444 were determined when grown in minimal medium containing glucose alone or glucose plus vanillin, ferulic acid, or the β-5-linked aromatic dimer dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol as carbon sources. Here, we present the RNA-sequencing data we obtained.
ABSTRACT We report the draft genome sequence of a novel species, Exiguobacterium sp., isolated from a freshly harvested and untreated cantaloupe in North Carolina. The strain Exiguobacterium wild type exhibited inhibitory activity against the foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes , including strains of diverse serotypes and genotypes, both on agar media and in biofilms.
ABSTRACT Rhodococcus phage Perlina is a novel phage isolated on Rhodococcus qingshengii S10. Perlina encodes 112 open reading frames with typical phage structural genes identified and 3 tRNAs (tRNA-Ile, tRNA-Met, and tRNA-Asn). Few close relatives can be identified at the nucleotide level, suggesting a new phage species.
Here, we report the genome-wide identification of transcription start sites (TSSs) from two Alphaproteobacteria grown under conditions that result in significant changes in gene expression. TSSs that were identified as present in one condition or both will be an important resource for future studies of these, and possibly other, Alphaproteobacteria .
ABSTRACT Hydrologic changes modify microbial community structure and ecosystem functions, especially in wetland systems. Here, we present 24 metagenomes from a coastal freshwater wetland experiment in which we manipulated hydrologic conditions and plant presence. These wetland soil metagenomes will deepen our understanding of how hydrology and vegetation influence microbial functional diversity.
The novel fungal strain, Fusarium sp. strain DS 682, was isolated from the rhizosphere of the perennial grass, Bouteloua gracilis , at the Konza Prairie Biological Station in Kansas. This fungal strain is common across North American grasslands and is resilient to environmental fluctuations. The draft genome is estimated to be 97.2% complete.
ABSTRACT Lactobacillus brevis Oregon-R-modENCODE strain BDGP6 was isolated from the gut of Drosophila melanogaster for functional host-microbial interaction studies. The bacterial chromosome is a single circular DNA molecule of 2,785,111 bp with a G+C content of 46%.
Here, we present the draft genome sequence of a novel species of the genus Singulisphaera (phylum Planctomycetes , family Isosphaeraceae ) isolated from soil. Singulisphaera sp. strain GP187 has a relatively large mobilome and numerous novel genes that may contribute to the production of bioactive molecules.
Many soil microorganisms have evolved catabolic strategies to utilize phenolic compounds arising from depolymerized lignin. We report the complete genome sequences of four Pseudomonas sp. isolates that demonstrated robust growth on a wide range of aromatic monomers and dimers that are relevant to the valorization of lignin into value-added chemicals.
ABSTRACT We present six whole community shotgun metagenomic sequencing data sets of two types of biological soil crusts sampled at the ecotone of the Mojave Desert and Colorado Desert in California. These data will help us understand the diversity and function of biocrust microbial communities, which are essential for desert ecosystems.
ABSTRACT We report whole-genome sequences of eight bacteria isolated from laboratory-kept Macrocystis pyrifera gametophytes. The bacterial culture collection is maintained in cryostorage and will be utilized in future applications as inoculants. The genomes were assembled using Oxford Nanopore Technology long-read sequencing.
We report on complete genome sequences of five Pseudomonas soil isolates that are capable of metabolizing pentose sugars and aromatic monomers. These complete genome sequence data provide insight into possible alternative hosts for the production of biofuels and bio-based chemicals from lignocellulosic feedstock.
The isolation of novel microbes from environmental samples continues to be a key strategy for the discovery of new metabolic capacities for the degradation and transformation of lignocellulose. We report the draft genome sequence of a new strain of Brevibacillus borstelensis isolated from a sorghum-adapted microbial community derived from a compost sample.
