Broad-spectrum applications of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) across diverse crops and intricate planting systems.

Multifunctional plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) have garnered significant attention in agricultural applications; however, a few have applied them in crop rotation or intercropping fields. To identify PGPR with strong colonization ability and broad spectrum benefit, we screened strains from the local tobacco rhizosphere and evaluated their growth-promoting effects across various crops and farming systems. In this study, strain L8, identified as , was selected as a multifunctional PGPR capable of producing indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), solubilizing potassium, and mobilizing both organic and inorganic phosphorus.

Identification of Bacteria Associated with Tobacco Mildew and Tobacco-Specific Nitrosamines During Tobacco Fermentation.

Tobacco mildew and tobacco-specific nitrosamines (TSNAs) affect the quality of tobacco products during fermentation. Microbes are thought to play key roles in the development of specific properties of fermented tobacco; however, little is known about the bacteria involved in the fermentation process. This study aims to identify key microbes related to mildew and TSNA formation.

NtbHLH49, a jasmonate-regulated transcription factor, negatively regulates tobacco responses to .

Tobacco black shank caused by is a devastating disease that causes huge losses to tobacco production across the world. Investigating the regulatory mechanism of tobacco resistance to is of great importance for tobacco resistance breeding. The jasmonate (JA) signaling pathway plays a pivotal role in modulating plant pathogen resistance, but the mechanism underlying JA-mediated tobacco resistance to remains largely unclear.

Analysis of rhizosphere bacterial communities of tobacco resistant and non-resistant to bacterial wilt in different regions.

Tobacco bacterial wilt has seriously affected tobacco production. Ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) induced tobacco bacterial wilt resistant mutants are important for the control of tobacco bacterial wilt. High-throughput sequencing technology was used to study the rhizosphere bacterial community assemblages of bacterial wilt resistant mutant tobacco rhizosphere soil (namely KS), bacterial wilt susceptible tobacco rhizosphere soil (namely GS) and bulk soil (namely BS) in Xuancheng, Huanxi, Yibin and Luzhou.

Investigation of the growth performance, blood status, gut microbiome and metabolites of rabbit fed with low-nicotine tobacco.

Tobacco contains a large amount of bioactive ingredients which can be used as source of feed. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of dietary addition of low-nicotine tobacco (LNT) on the growth performance, blood status, cecum microbiota and metabolite composition of meat rabbits. A total of 80 Kangda meat rabbits of similar weight were assigned randomly as four groups, and three of them were supplemented with 5%, 10%, and 20% LNT, respectively, with the other one fed with basal diet as control group.

The Oral Microbiota: Community Composition, Influencing Factors, Pathogenesis, and Interventions.

The human oral cavity provides a habitat for oral microbial communities. The complexity of its anatomical structure, its connectivity to the outside, and its moist environment contribute to the complexity and ecological site specificity of the microbiome colonized therein. Complex endogenous and exogenous factors affect the occurrence and development of the oral microbiota, and maintain it in a dynamic balance.

Catalase-integrated metal-organic framework with synergetic catalytic activity for colorimetric sensing.

As a platform for enzyme immobilization, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can protect enzyme activity from the interference of external adverse environment. Although these strategies have been proven to produce good results, little consideration has been given to the functional similarity of MOFs to the encapsulated enzyme. Here, catalase (CAT) was encapsulated in Fe-BTC with peroxidase-like activity to obtain a stable composite (CAT@Fe-BTC) with synergistic catalytic activity.

Co-carrying of KPC-2, NDM-5, CTX-M-3 and CTX-M-65 in three plasmids with serotype O89: H10 Escherichia coli strain belonging to the ST2 clone in China.

Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae strains as a new serious threat for the public health have been increasingly reported worldwide. In this study, one multi-resistant Escherichia coli strain ZSH6 which co-carried bla, bla and bla, was isolated from human blood sample. By using plasmid conjugation experiments, ZSH6 was found to harbor three plasmids carrying the bla gene, the bla and bla gene, respectively.
