Biotechnological Key Genes of the MGMM8 Genome: Genes for Bioremediation, Antibiotics, Plant Protection, and Growth Stimulation.

Anthropogenic pollution, including residues from the green revolution initially aimed at addressing food security and healthcare, has paradoxically exacerbated environmental challenges. The transition towards comprehensive green biotechnology and bioremediation, achieved with lower financial investment, hinges on microbial biotechnology, with the genus emerging as a promising contender. The significance of fully annotating genome sequences lies in comprehending strain constituents, devising experimental protocols, and strategically deploying these strains to address pertinent issues using pivotal genes.

Toolkit for cellular studies of mammalian mitochondrial inorganic polyphosphate.

Inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) is an ancient polymer which is extremely well-conserved throughout evolution, and found in every studied organism. PolyP is composed of orthophosphates linked together by high-energy bonds, similar to those found in ATP. The metabolism and the functions of polyP in prokaryotes and simple eukaryotes are well understood.

Induced Expression of and Genes Associated with Penconazole and Fludioxonil Resistance in the Potato Pathogen .

Preventing antifungal resistance development and identifying pathogens with high, medium, and low risk of resistance development to a particular fungicide or fungicide class is crucial in the fight against phytopathogens. We characterized the sensitivity of potato wilt-associated isolates to fludioxonil and penconazole and assessed the effect of these fungicides on the expression of fungal sterol-14-α-demethylase ( and histidine kinase () genes. Penconazole stunted the growth of strains at all concentrations used.

Identification, characterization, and genome sequencing of MG-1 isolate with growth-promoting properties.

Unlabelled: In recent years, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) have received increased attention due to their prospective use as biofertilizers for the enhancement of crop growth and yields. However, there is a growing need to identify new PGPR isolates with additional beneficial properties. In this paper, we describe the identification of a new strain of a non-sporulating Gram-positive bacterium isolated from the rhizosphere of potato plants, classified as MG-1 based on whole-genome sequencing.

Are formae speciales pathogens really host specific? A broadened host specificity in Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. radicis-cucumerinum.

Phytopathogenic strains of Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht exhibit clear host specificity, which appears to be a persistent characteristic and a dependable base for the forma specialis system of these pathogens. Here, we report an altered host specificity of the F. oxysporum f.

"We'll check vital signs only till we finish the school": experiences of student nurses regarding intra-semester clinical placement in Ghana.

Background: Clinical practicum is an integral part of nursing education because it provides students with opportunities to perform nursing care and practice specific nursing tasks. In Ghana, little is known about the experiences of baccalaureate student nurses with regard to intra-semester clinical practicum. This study therefore, explored perceptions, challenges, and how the intra-semester clinical practicum affects the learning process of student nurses in a private university in Ghana.
