is a highly evolved group of phytopathogenic bacteria infecting nearly 400 host plants having vast genomic resources available with heterogenicity in representation from different species and pathovars. Unfortunately, the wealth of data is extremely biased and restricted to a few pathogens that infect economically important plants, while those reported to infect the most diverse plants remain neglected. In the present study, we report the first complete genome sequence of pv. that was reported to infect . or golden dewdrop, a hedge plant of ornamental importance native to the American region. Phylogenomic analysis with its closest relatives placed it amongst pv. A* pathotype strains and further comparative studies revealed various large unique genomic regions of chromosomal origin. The association of integrative and conjugative elements and prophages with unique genomic regions suggests the role of mobilome in genome dynamics. A large number of IS elements and transcription activator-like effectors encoding genes on each of the four plasmids indicate the further scope of diversification in .

Root-knot nematodes (RKNs) of the genus Meloidogyne pose the most significant threats to global food security due to their destructive nature as plant-parasitic nematodes. Although significant attention has been devoted to investigating the gene transcription profiling of RKNs, our understanding of the translational landscape of RKNs remains limited. In this study, we elucidated the translational landscape of Meloidogyne incognita through the integration of translatome, transcriptome and quantitative proteome analyses.

DNA can fold into noncanonical left-handed Z-DNA conformation beyond the right-handed B-DNA. While its crystal structure was discovered nearly four decades ago, it was predominantly considered a structural curiosity. Recent evidence suggests that Z-DNA formation occurs in nuclear and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), with significant biological implications.

Ribose Sugar Alters Conformational Sampling of G•T Mismatched Duplex DNA.

Polymerases erroneously incorporate Guanine-Thymine (dG•dT) mismatches in genomic DNA that further evades repair by transient sampling of tautomeric/ionic states compromising fidelity of repairing dG•dT mismatches. In conjunction, significant frequency of ribose (mis)incorporation in duplex DNA permits for misincorporated-mismatch in the genome. Ribose incorporated G(rG) mismatched with T(rG•dT) is the most stable across all misincorporated-mismatch calling into question the conformational consequences of the ribose sugar in addition to the mismatch.

Background: Microbial spoilage in meat impedes the development of sustainable food systems. However, our understanding of the origin of spoilage microbes is limited. Here, we describe a detailed longitudinal study that assesses the microbial dynamics in a meat processing facility using high-throughput culture-dependent and culture-independent approaches to reveal the diversity, dispersal, persistence, and biofilm formation of spoilage-associated microbes.
