Two Gram-stain-negative bacterial strains, R39 and R73, were isolated from the rhizosphere soil of the selenium hyperaccumulator in China. Strain R39 transformed selenite into elemental and volatile selenium, whereas strain R73 transformed both selenate and selenite into elemental selenium. Phylogenetic and phylogenomic analyses indicated that strain R39 belonged to the genus , while strain R73 belonged to the genus . Strain R39 (genome size, 6.68 Mb; G+C content, 61.6 mol%) showed the closest relationship to LMG 26219 and LMG 3441, with average nucleotide identity (ANI) values of 83.6 and 83.4 %, respectively. Strain R73 (genome size, 5.22 Mb; G+C content, 50.3 mol%) was most closely related to ATCC 51602 with an ANI value of 86.4 %. Furthermore, strain A111 from the GenBank database was found to cluster with strain R73 within the genus through phylogenomic analyses. The ANI and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strains R73 and A111 were 97.5 and 80.0% respectively, indicating that they belong to the same species. Phenotypic characteristics also differentiated strain R39 and strain R73 from their closely related species. Based on the polyphasic analyses, strain R39 and strain R73 represent novel species of the genera and , respectively, for which the names sp. nov. (type strain R39=GDMCC 1.3843=JCM 36009) and sp. nov. (type strain R73=GDMCC 1.3636=JCM 35850) are proposed.

Cadmium (Cd) contamination in paddy soil becomes increasingly prominent in recent years, which endangers the safe production of food crops. Cd-tolerant endophytes are ideal mediators for decreasing Cd content in rice plants, but their effects on the rice endophytic microbial community and gene expression profile have not yet been well elucidated. In this study, 58 endophytic bacteria from rice seeds were isolated and characterized.

Four undescribed lignans and two undescribed sesquiterpenic acids, together with three known compounds (hypochoeroside C, hypochoeroside D, and 5-O-caffeoylshikimic acid) were isolated from the roots of Hypochaeris radicata subsp. neapolitana (Asteraceae, Cichorieae). The lignans were identified as 4-(3,4-dihydroxybenzyl)-2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)tetrahydrofuran-3-carboxy-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, 4-(3,4-dihydroxybenzyl)-2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)tetrahydrofuran-3-carboxy-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-2'-O-methacrylate, (7S,8R,8'R)-7-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3',4'-dihydroxy-7,8,7',8'-tetrahydronaphtho [8,8'-c]furan-1(3H)-one, and (7S,8R,8'R)-7-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3',4'-dihydroxy-8'-(hydroxymethyl)-7,8,7',8'-tetrahydronaphthalen-8-carboxylic acid.

Background: Mass drug administration (MDA) with azithromycin is a corner-stone of trachoma control however it may drive the emergence of antimicrobial resistance. In a cluster-randomized trial (Clinical trial gov NCT00792922), we compared the reduction in the prevalence of active trachoma in communities that received three annual rounds of MDA to that in communities that received a single treatment round. We used the framework of this trial to carry out an opportunistic study to investigate if the increased rounds of treatment resulted in increased prevalence of nasopharyngeal carriage of macrolide-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Cresol Red belongs to the triphenylmethane (TPM) class of dyes which are potentially carcinogenic or mutagenic. However, very few studies on biodegradation of Cresol Red were investigated as compared to other type dyes such as azo and anthraquinone dye. The aim of this work is to evaluate triphenylmethane dye Cresol Red degradation by fungal strain isolated from the decayed wood in Johor Bahru, Malaysia.
