Project description:Bacillus weihenstephanensis is a subspecies of the Bacillus cereus sensu lato group of spore forming bacteria known to cause food spoilage or food poisoning. The key distinguishing phenotype of B. weihenstephanensis is its ability to grow below 7°C or, from a food safety perspective, to grow and potentially produce toxins in a refrigerated environment. In order to gain insight into to the mechanistic basis of its psychrotolerant phenotype, as well as elucidate relevant aspects of its toxigenic profile, the proteome profiles of cells grown at either 6°C or 30°C were compared.

Project description:Characterization of the putative genetic determinants of the VBNC state in a known spore-forming Gram-positive organism Bacillus subtilis 168. The VBNC state was induced under osmotic stress and aminoglycoside treatment. The transcriptome landscape of VBNC cells was compared to the viable, antibiotic sensitive B. subtilis cells and to the viable cells with no antibiotic treatment.
Project description:Root exudates play an important role in plant-microbe interaction. The transcriptional profilings of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria Bacillus amyloliquefaciens SQR9 in response to maize root exudates under static condition, were investigated by an Illumina RNA-seq for understanding the regulatory roles of the root exudates.
