A draft genome sequence of Streptomyces incarnatus NRRL8089, which produces the nucleoside antibiotic sinefungin, is described here. The genome contains 8,897,465 bp in 76 contigs and 8,266 predicted genes. Interestingly, the genome encodes an open reading frame for selenocysteine-containing formate dehydrogenase-O and the selenoprotein biosynthetic gene cluster selABCD.

We present the draft genomic sequences of 65 isolates of spp. (38 and 27 ) isolated from table egg-layer chickens, which are not generally associated with human transmission. Up to this time, there are no publicly available genomic sequences of isolated from laying hens.

A draft genome was generated for a strain of closely related to sp. ENV421 isolated from plants of smooth cordgrass germinated from seeds collected in a salt marsh in Cape Cod (USA). Genomic DNA was sequenced using paired-end Illumina technologies.

The Ralstonia solanacearum Species Complex (RSSC) is the most significant plant pathogen group with a wide host range. It is genetically related but displays distinct biological features, such as restrictive geography occurrence. The RSSC comprises three species: Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum (phylotype I and III), Ralstonia solanacearum (phylotype IIA and IIB), and Ralstonia syzygii (phylotype IV) (Fegan and Prior 2005).

Lorchels, also known as false morels (Gyromitra sensu lato), are iconic due to their brain-shaped mushrooms and production of gyromitrin, a deadly mycotoxin. Molecular phylogenetic studies have hitherto failed to resolve deep-branching relationships in the lorchel family, Discinaceae, hampering our ability to settle longstanding taxonomic debates and to reconstruct the evolution of toxin production. We generated 75 draft genomes from cultures and ascomata (some collected as early as 1960), conducted phylogenomic analyses using 1542 single-copy orthologs to infer the early evolutionary history of lorchels, and identified genomic signatures of trophic mode and mating-type loci to better understand lorchel ecology and reproductive biology.

Background: Plasma phospho-tau biomarkers, such as p217+tau, excel at identifying Alzheimer's Disease (AD) neuropathology. However, questions remain regarding their capacity to inform AD biological PET stages at group level and maintain the same precision at individual patient level.
Method: Participants included 248 cognitively unimpaired (CU) and 227 cognitively impaired (CI) individuals, with Janssen plasma p217+tau Simoa® assay, F-NAV4694 Aβ PET (A) and F-MK6240 tau PET (T) data.
