Dynamic changes and interaction between different aroma types during low-temperature roasting of bud green tea.

As an important process for enhancing aroma of Wuyi rock tea, roasting has gradually been applied to the processing of bud green tea (BGT). However, there is a lack of comprehensive research on the impact of roasting on BGT aroma. This research provides a detailed analysis of the changes in aroma perception and compounds during the low-temperature roasting process (105°C, 90 minutes) of BGT.

Comparative genomics of the marine bacterial genus Glaciecola reveals the high degree of genomic diversity and genomic characteristic for cold adaptation.

To what extent the genomes of different species belonging to one genus can be diverse and the relationship between genomic differentiation and environmental factor remain unclear for oceanic bacteria. With many new bacterial genera and species being isolated from marine environments, this question warrants attention. In this study, we sequenced all the type strains of the published species of Glaciecola, a recently defined cold-adapted genus with species from diverse marine locations, to study the genomic diversity and cold-adaptation strategy in this genus.

Comparative genomics provide insights into evolution of trichoderma nutrition style.

Saprotrophy on plant biomass is a recently developed nutrition strategy for Trichoderma. However, the physiology and evolution of this new nutrition strategy is still elusive. We report the deep sequencing and analysis of the genome of Trichoderma longibrachiatum, an efficient cellulase producer.

Genome sequences of type strains of seven species of the marine bacterium Pseudoalteromonas.

There are over 30 species in the marine bacterial genus Pseudoalteromonas. However, our knowledge about this genus is still limited. We sequenced the genomes of type strains of seven species in the genus, facilitating the study of the physiology, adaptation, and evolution of this genus.

Genome sequence of the cycloprodigiosin-producing bacterial strain Pseudoalteromonas rubra ATCC 29570(T).

The cycloprodigiosin biosynthetic gene cluster has not been reported. We sequenced the genome of a cycloprodigiosin-producing bacterial strain, Pseudoalteromonas rubra ATCC 29570(T). Analysis revealed a probable cycloprodigiosin biosynthetic cluster, providing a good model for the study of cycloprodigiosin synthesis and regulation.

Genome sequences of six Pseudoalteromonas strains isolated from Arctic sea ice.

Yu et al. (Polar Biol. 32:1539-1547, 2009) isolated 199 Pseudoalteromonas strains from Arctic sea ice.

Complete genome sequence of seawater bacterium Glaciecola nitratireducens FR1064(T).

Glaciecola nitratireducens strain FR1064(T) was isolated from seawater and described as a new species by Baik et al. in 2006. The genome size is about 1.
