Plasmid content has been studied in a number of Streptomyces chrysomallus strains producers of actinomycin C. The plasmids pSCH2 and pSCH3 have been isolated from nocardia-like mutants of Streptococcus chrysomallus BKM Ac-590 that are producing antibiotics macrotetrolides, bacteriocins and an inducer analogous to A-factor in addition to actinomycin. The size of the plasmids is 13.4 and 15.1 kb as found by restriction analysis. Plasmids differ in deletion and content in the cultures. The ability of the strains to produce antibiotics depends on plasmid content.

Objectives: The data were collected to obtain the complete genome sequence of Pseudarthrobacter sp. NIBRBAC000502770, isolated from the rhizosphere of Sasamorpha in a heavy metal-contaminated coal mine in Hongcheon, Republic of Korea. The objective was to explore the strain's genetic potential for plant growth promotion and heavy metal resistance, particularly arsenate and copper.

Provided are whole-genome sequences of six strains that had been earlier isolated from louse-borne relapsing fever patients. The sequences of each genome presented here included one linear chromosome and 5 linear plasmids, whose average size was 1,284,895 bp with the mean GC content being 27.5%.

Starch is widely used in aquaculture because of its low price and the advantages for processing expanded feed. Largemouth bass are naturally type 2 diabetic and intolerant to dietary carbohydrates. In this study, we found that the phosphorylation of AKT and FoxO1 were down-regulated in the fish suffering from metabolic liver disease (MLD).

Actinobacteria have frequently been reported in the Andean Puna, including strains of the genus Micrococcus. These strains demonstrate resistance to high levels of UV radiation, arsenic, and multiple antibiotics, and possess large linear plasmids. A comparative analysis of the sequences and putative functions of these plasmids was conducted.

Avian necrotic enteritis due to the Gram-positive bacterium has re-emerged following the ban on antibiotic growth promoters in many poultry producing countries. The limited number of previous studies has left important gaps in our understanding of the genetic diversity and virulence traits of the pathogen. To address these knowledge gaps, in this study, we sequenced the genomes of 41 isolates recovered from commercial broiler chicken flocks in Quebec, Canada, including isolates from healthy birds and those affected by necrotic enteritis.
