Leptospira species colonize a significant proportion of rodent populations worldwide and
produce life-threatening infections in accidental hosts, including humans. Complete genome …

Xylella fastidiosa is a xylem-dwelling, insect-transmitted, gamma-proteobacterium that causes
diseases in many plants, including grapevine, citrus, periwinkle, almond, oleander, and …

“Candidatus Liberibacter” species are associated with economically devastating diseases
of citrus, potato, and many other crops. The importance of these diseases as well as the …

Antibiotic-induced dysbiosis is a key factor predisposing intestinal infection by Clostridium
difficile. Here, we show that interventions that restore butyrate intestinal levels mitigate clinical …

We report novel features of the genome sequence of Leptospira interrogans serovar
Copenhageni, a highly invasive spirochete. Leptospira species colonize a significant proportion of …

Composting is a promising source of new organisms and thermostable enzymes that may be
helpful in environmental management and industrial processes. Here we present results of …

▪ Abstract This review deals with a comparative analysis of seven genome sequences from
plant-associated bacteria. These are the genomes of Agrobacterium tumefaciens, …

Xylella fastidiosa is a fastidious, xylem-limited bacterium that causes a range of economically
important plant diseases. Here we report the complete genome sequence of X. fastidiosa …

Several studies have investigated links between the gut microbiome and colorectal cancer (CRC),
but questions remain about the replicability of biomarkers across cohorts and …

Ever since the structure of DNA was unraveled in 1953, molecular biology has witnessed
tremendous advances. With the increase in our ability to manipulate biomolecular sequences, …
