A putative new virus with sequence similarity to members of the genus Cavemovirus in the family Caulimoviridae was identified in wild chicory (Cichorium intybus) by next-generation sequencing (NGS). The putative new virus was tentatively named "chicory mosaic cavemovirus" (ChiMV), and its genome was determined to be 7,775 nucleotides (nt) long with the typical genome organization of cavemoviruses. ORF1 encodes a putative coat protein/movement polyprotein (1,278 aa), ORF2 encodes a putative replicase (650 aa), and ORF3 encodes a putative transactivator factor (384 aa). The first two putative proteins have 46.2% and 68.7% amino acid sequence identity to the CP/MP protein (YP_004347414) and replicase (YP_004347415), respectively, of sweet potato collusive virus (SPCV). ORF3 encodes a protein with 38.5% amino acid sequence identity to the putative transactivator factor (NP_056849) of cassava vein mosaic virus (CsVMV). The new putative viral genome and those of three cavemoviruses (epiphyllum virus 4 [EpV-4], SPCV, and CsVMV) differ by 24-27% in the nt sequence of the replicase gene, which exceeds the species demarcation cutoff (>20%) for the family.

How specification mechanisms that generate neural diversity translate into specific neuronal targeting, connectivity, and function in the adult brain is not understood. In the medulla region of the optic lobe, neural progenitors generate different neurons in a fixed order by sequentially expressing a series of temporal transcription factors as they age. Then, Notch signaling in intermediate progenitors further diversifies neuronal progeny.

Plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium Sp7 utilizes fructose efficiently via a fructose phosphotransferase system (Fru-PTS). Its genome encodes two putative Fru-PTS, each consisting of FruB (EIIA), FruK (Pfk), and FruA (EIIBC) proteins. We compared the proteomes of Sp7 grown with malate or fructose as sole carbon source, and noticed upregulation of the constituent proteins of Fru-PTS1 only on fructose.

Cyanobacteria are widespread, photosynthetic, gram-negative bacteria that generate numerous bioactive secondary metabolites complex biosynthetic enzymatic machinery. The model cyanobacterium sp. strain PCC 7002, hereafter referred to as PCC 7002, contains a type I polyketide synthase (PKS), termed olefin synthase (OlsWT), that synthesizes 1-nonadecene and 1,14-nonadecadiene: α-olefins that are important for growth at low temperatures.

The resistance () gene family in plants is a vital component of the plant defense system, enabling host resistance against pathogens through interactions with pathogen effector proteins. These R genes often encode nucleotide-binding (NB-ARC or N) and leucine-rich-repeat (LRR or L) domains, collectively forming the NLR protein family. The NLR proteins have been widely explored in crops from and , but limited studies are available for crops in other families, including .
