Heteroresistance and growth characteristics of Pseudomonas aeruginosa influence invasion success, with resistant strains gaining advantage at 2-4xMIC of clinical isolates.
Novel in vitro cell-based assays can detect and differentiate biologically active cytotoxic cylindrospermopsin with sensitivities comparable to mouse bioassays.
Integrating morphological and etymological analysis improves microbiology students' understanding and retention of terminology, with students reporting increased ability to decode scientific words.
Intestinal fungi in fish gut microbiomes are recurrent, ecologically active, and influence host outcomes despite low read fractions, challenging traditional abundance-based views.
Skin microbiomes of combtooth blenny fish show increasing divergence from substrate microbiomes along the intertidal gradient, with the most terrestrial species exhibiting the greatest difference.
A novel mesophilic filamentous phototrophic bacterium from Lake Umkhey's microbial mats has a complete 3-hydroxypropionate bicycle for CO₂ fixation and occupies an intermediate phylogenetic position within Chloroflexota.
Ammonium transporter AlcAMT with K450 residue enables ammonium uptake in A. catenella, as shown by yeast expression experiments.
Galleria mellonella larvae can host Ehrlichia ruminantium, showing bacterial persistence and moderate mortality over at least two weeks without triggering melanization.
Lineage-specific structural variation at a conserved tRNA-Thr-associated hotspot distinguishes E. anguillarum strains affecting different aquaculture hosts.
Postharvest storage of Stropharia rugosoannulata involves 2,955 genes and 43 metabolites linked to key pathways like carbohydrate metabolism and cell wall degradation.
DacB and dacD genes are consistently upregulated in E. coli under oxyimino cephalosporin stress, indicating their potential as reporters for cephalosporin resistance detection.
Hecogenin acetate exhibits fungistatic activity and completely inhibits yeast-hyphae switching in Candida spp., despite having a higher IC₅₀ than fluconazole.
Candidatus Argiopiplasma dusa, a novel bacterial symbiont of Argiope bruennichi, has a small 575 kb genome with 559 genes and low GC content, indicating an endosymbiotic lifestyle.
Osmotic stress activates GadR-dependent GAD2 expression in Listeria monocytogenes, increasing survival under acid stress with a 0.5 M or 1 M NaCl challenge.
Bacillus subtilis and Micrococcus luteus isolates significantly suppress Fusarium verticillioides in maize, achieving up to 91.11% seed germination and 119.41 cm plant height.
European experts emphasize that successful bacterial genome sequencing in clinical microbiology requires robust validation, sustainable funding, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
H. pylori acts as a context-dependent ecosystem modifier, reducing microbiome divergence alone but amplifying dysbiosis during gastric disease progression.
Genomic analysis uncovers three distinct, highly divergent populations of Legionella anisa, with a clonal lineage identified in a Canadian healthcare facility.
