Whole-Genome Sequence of a Pantoea sp. Strain Isolated from an Olive (Olea europaea L.) Knot.

Project description:Here, we present the total genome sequence of Pantoea sp. strain paga, a plant-associated bacterium isolated from knots present on olive trees grown on the Adriatic Coast. The genome size of Pantoea sp. paga is 5.08 Mb, with a G+C content of 54%. The genome contains 4,776 predicted coding DNA sequences (CDSs), including 70 tRNA genes and 1 ribosomal operon. Obtained genome sequence data will provide insight on the physiology, ecology, and evolution of Pantoea spp.

Whole genome sequencing of Rhodotorula mucilaginosa isolated from the chewing stick (Distemonanthus benthamianus): insights into Rhodotorula phylogeny, mitogenome dynamics and carotenoid biosynthesis.

Project description:In industry, the yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa is commonly used for the production of carotenoids. The production of carotenoids is important because they are used as natural colorants in food and some carotenoids are precursors of retinol (vitamin A). However, the identification and molecular characterization of the carotenoid pathway/s in species belonging to the genus Rhodotorula is scarce due to the lack of genomic information thus potentially impeding effective metabolic engineering of these yeast strains for improved carotenoid production. In this study, we report the isolation, identification, characterization and the whole nuclear genome and mitogenome sequence of the endophyte R. mucilaginosa RIT389 isolated from Distemonanthus benthamianus, a plant known for its anti-fungal and antibacterial properties and commonly used as chewing sticks. The assembled genome of R. mucilaginosa RIT389 is 19 Mbp in length with an estimated genomic heterozygosity of 9.29%. Whole genome phylogeny supports the species designation of strain RIT389 within the genus in addition to supporting the monophyly of the currently sequenced Rhodotorula species. Further, we report for the first time, the recovery of the complete mitochondrial genome of R. mucilaginosa using the genome skimming approach. The assembled mitogenome is at least 7,000 bases larger than that of Rhodotorula taiwanensis which is largely attributed to the presence of large intronic regions containing open reading frames coding for homing endonuclease from the LAGLIDADG and GIY-YIG families. Furthermore, genomic regions containing the key genes for carotenoid production were identified in R. mucilaginosa RIT389, revealing differences in gene synteny that may play a role in the regulation of the biotechnologically important carotenoid synthesis pathways in yeasts.

Whole genome sequencing and taxonomic profiling of two Pantoea sp. isolated from environmental samples in Israel.

Project description:ObjectiveAs part of a research aiming at the isolation of bacteria secreting growth inhibiting compounds, cultures of Francisella tularensis were implanted in environmental samples and monitored for inhibition zones on agar. Two antibiotic-like secreting bacteria were isolated, their genomic sequence was deciphered and taxonomic profiling analysis classified them as belonging to the Pantoea genus.Data descriptionTwo bacterial isolates exhibiting growth inhibition zones to F. tularensis (LVS) were analyzed using the Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT). Preliminary de novo assembly of the reads was performed, followed by taxonomic profiling based on Multi Locus Sequence Analysis (MLSA) and implementation of the Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) measure. The genomic sequences resulted in the identification of two different Pantoea species, denoted EnvD and EnvH. Subsequent de novo genome assembly generated 5 and 10 contigs for EnvD and EnvH, respectively. The largest contig (4,008,183 bps and 3,740,753 bps for EnvD and EnvH, respectively), overlaps to a major extent to the chromosome of closely related Pantoea species. ANI values calculated for both isolates revealed two apparently new species of the Pantoea genus. Our study deciphered the identity of two bacteria producing antibiotic-like compounds, and the genomic sequence revealed they represent distinct Pantoea species.

Non-contiguous finished genome sequence of the opportunistic oral pathogen Prevotella multisaccharivorax type strain (PPPA20).

Project description:Prevotella multisaccharivorax Sakamoto et al. 2005 is a species of the large genus Prevotella, which belongs to the family Prevotellaceae. The species is of medical interest because its members are able to cause diseases in the human oral cavity such as periodontitis, root caries and others. Although 77 Prevotella genomes have already been sequenced or are targeted for sequencing, this is only the second completed genome sequence of a type strain of a species within the genus Prevotella to be published. The 3,388,644 bp long genome is assembled in three non-contiguous contigs, harbors 2,876 protein-coding and 75 RNA genes and is a part of the Genomic Encyclopedia of Bacteria and Archaea project.

Dog Stick Chewing: An Overlooked Instance of Tool Use?

Project description:Tool use is a central topic in research on cognitive evolution and behavioral ecology in non-human animals. Originally thought to be a uniquely human phenomenon, many other species have been observed making and using tools for a variety of purposes, starting with Goodall's (1964) groundbreaking work with chimpanzees in Gombe. Despite the frequent attention and great research interest in animal tool use, and ubiquity of the behavior, we argue here that chewing sticks by dogs (and other animals) should be included as a case of tool use. We discuss alternate possible explanations and then propose several testable predictions regarding this hypothesis. We suggest that tool use may be more common than is often assumed and that many cases of animal tool use may be overlooked.
