Project description:Frequently observed in tropical and sub-tropical regions, crops contamination by aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) produced by Aspergillus flavus, is emerging in Europe, due to climate change. Many alternative methods are currently developed to reduce the use of chemical inputs to prevent mycotoxin contamination, such as biocontrol agents (BCAs). Actinobacteria are known to produce many bioactive compounds and some of them are able to reduce in vitro AFB1 concentration. In this context, the present study aims to analyze the effect of a cell free supernatant (CFS) from Streptomyces roseolus liquid culture on A. flavus development, as well as on its transcriptome profile using microarray assay and its impact on AFB1 concentration. To study the impact of Streptomyces roseolus cell free supernatant on global transcriptome of Aspergillus flavus we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in a Gluconacetobacter xylinus NBRC 3288 delta-fnrG mutant, compared to the wild-type strain.
Project description:In this study, we describe the isolation and identification of Streptomyces isolates collected from traditional medicinal plants’ rhizosphere during a campaign in Hamedan Province, Iran. Traditional medicinal plants represent a rich and unique source for the isolation of Streptomyces and new antimicrobial compounds. This strain was isolated from the rhizosphere of Helichrysum rubicundum
Project description:To identify unique gene expression in cAMP supplemented Streptomyces coelicolor M1146 strain. The genes with different gene expression might be key genes to understand the effects of cAMP supplementation on the transcriptome of Streptomyces coelicolor M1146.
Project description:To identify unique gene expression in cAMP supplemented Streptomyces coelicolor M145 strain. The genes with different gene expression might be key genes to understand the effects of cAMP supplementation on the transcriptome of Streptomyces coelicolor M145.
Project description:This study compared the genome of Streptomyces rimosus rimosus against that of Streptomyces coelicolor. It also compared 4 strains with changes in oxytetracycline production and derived from G7, the type strain, against G7. Keywords: Comparative genomic hybridization
