Production and Excretion of Polyamines To Tolerate High Ammonia, a Case Study on Soil Ammonia-Oxidizing Archaeon “ Candidatus Nitrosocosmicus agrestis”

Names
Ca. Nitrosocosmicus agrestis Ca. Nitrosocosmicus
Abstract
Ammonia tolerance of AOA is usually much lower than that of the AOB, which makes the AOB rather than AOA a predominant ammonia oxidizer in agricultural soils, contributing to global N 2 O emission. Recently, some AOA species from the genus “ Ca. Nitrosocosmicus” were also found to have high ammonia tolerance.

Changes in the expression of CrFTA, the Catharanthus roseus farnesyltransferase α-subunit gene, in response to a Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus infection

Names
Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus
Abstract
The farnesyltransferase α-subunit (FTA) may be involved in the regulation of defence responses against pathogens in plants. In this study, this gene was amplified from Catharanthus roseus (CrFTA gene). The cDNA was found to be 1 403 bp long, and encodes a putative protein of 331 amino acids that contains a conserved PPTA motif. The phylogenetic analysis showed that the sequence of CrFTA is the most similar to that from Coffea canephora. The qRT-PCR assays indicated that CrFTA is expressed in the

Genomes of the “ Candidatus Actinomarinales” Order: Highly Streamlined Marine Epipelagic Actinobacteria

Citation
López-Pérez et al. (2020). mSystems 5 (6)
Names
“Actinomarinales”
Abstract
Microbiology is in a new age in which sequence databases are primary sources of information about many microbes. However, in-depth analysis of environmental genomes thus retrieved is essential to substantiate the new knowledge.

Draft Genome Sequence of a Filamentous Anoxygenic Phototrophic Bacterium, “ Candidatus Roseilinea sp. Strain NK_OTU-006,” Recovered from Metagenomic Data of a Hot Spring Microbial Mat

Citation
Martinez et al. (2020). Microbiology Resource Announcements 9 (50)
Names
“Roseilinea”
Abstract
We report here the metagenome-assembled draft genome of an uncultured filamentous anoxygenic phototroph of the phylum Chloroflexota (formerly Chloroflexi ), “ Candidatus Roseilinea sp. strain NK_OTU-006,” recovered from hot spring-associated microbial mats. The 3.6-Mb genome is estimated to be 94% complete and comprises 117 contigs encoding 3,203 predicted genes, including a full-length rRNA operon.

Genome Sequence of “ Candidatus Dehalogenimonas etheniformans” Strain GP, a Vinyl Chloride-Respiring Anaerobe

Citation
Yang et al. (2020). Microbiology Resource Announcements 9 (50)
Names
Ca. Dehalogenimonas etheniformans
Abstract
“ Candidatus Dehalogenimonas etheniformans” strain GP couples growth with the reductive dechlorination of vinyl chloride and several polychlorinated ethenes. The genome sequence comprises a circular 2.07-Mb chromosome with a G+C content of 51.9% and harbors 50 putative reductive dehalogenase genes.
