Tomato variety Hawaii 7996 is resistant to the soil-borne pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum, whereas the Moneymaker variety is susceptible to the pathogen. To evaluate whether plant-associated microorganisms have a role in disease resistance, we analyzed the rhizosphere microbiomes of both varieties in a mesocosm experiment. Microbiome structures differed between the two cultivars.

Article Synopsis
  • DSW-8 is a marine bacterium isolated from seawater near Dokdo, Korea, and its genome was sequenced, revealing a total size of 4,434,543 bp with 3,835 protein-coding sequences identified.
  • The analysis found genes linked to gliding motility, molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis, and carbohydrate utilization, highlighting distinct genomic features.
  • A phylogenomic comparison with other strains showed that seawater species, like DSW-8, have different genetic traits from those found in algal blooms, particularly in carbohydrate metabolism, indicating habitat-specific adaptations.

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, deep yellow, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain LCS9T, was isolated from a soil sample at the tropical zone within the Ecorium of the National Institute of Ecology in Seocheon, central-western Korea. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain LCS9T clustered with members of the genus Flavisolibacter of the family Chitinophagaceae, phylum Bacteroidetes. Sequence similarities between strain LCS9T and the type strains of the genus Flavisolibacter ranged from 94.
