Project description:Here, we present the draft genome of Enterobacter sp. strain UCD-UG_FMILLET. This strain is an endophyte isolated from the roots of finger millet, an Afro-Indian cereal crop. The genome contains 4,801,411 bp in 53 scaffolds.
Project description:Global warming and heat stress belong to the most critical environmental challenges to agriculture worldwide, causing severe losses of major crop yields. In present study we report that the endophytic bacterium Enterobacter sp. SA187 protects Arabidopsis thaliana to heat stress. To understand the mechanisms at molecular level we performed RNA-seq
Project description:Here, we present the draft genome sequence of Microbacterium sp. strain UCD-TDU, a member of the phylum Actinobacteria. The assembly contains 3,746,321 bp (in 8 scaffolds). This strain was isolated from a residential toilet as part of an undergraduate student research project to sequence reference genomes of microbes from the built environment.
Project description:Here we present the draft genome of Leucobacter sp. strain UCD-THU. The genome contains 3,317,267 bp in 11 scaffolds. This strain was isolated from a residential toilet as part of an undergraduate project to sequence reference genomes of microbes from the built environment.
Project description:Here, we present the draft genome of Kocuria sp. strain UCD-OTCP, a member of the phylum Actinobacteria, isolated from a restaurant chair cushion. The assembly contains 3,791,485 bp (G+C content of 73%) and is contained in 68 scaffolds.
Project description:Here, we present the draft genome sequence of an actinobacterium, Dietzia sp. strain UCD-THP, isolated from a residential toilet handle. The assembly contains 3,915,613 bp. The genome sequences of only two other Dietzia species have been published, those of Dietzia alimentaria and Dietzia cinnamea.
Project description:Global warming has become a critical challenge to food safety, causing severe yield losses of major crops worldwide. Here, we report that the endophytic bacterium Enterobacter sp. SA187 induces thermotolerance of crops in a sustainable manner. Microbiome diversity of wheat plants is positively influenced by SA187 in open field agriculture, indicating that beneficial microbes can be a powerful tool to enhance agriculture in open field agriculture.
