The genus Komagataeibacter harbours bacteria presenting the ability to produce increased levels of crystalline nanocellulose, as well strains used in industrial production fermented products and beverages. Still, most studies this biotechnologically relevant were conducted based on limited phenotypic methodologies taxonomical classifications. In work, a detailed analysis currently described was phylogenomic analysis, unveiling relationships within allowing phylogenetic important genes such...
Microalgae are important members of the soil and plant microbiomes, playing key roles in maintenance health as well promotion growth. However, not much is understood regarding potential different microalgae strains augmenting growth, or mechanisms involved such activities. In this work, functional genomic characterization strain NFX-FRZ, a eukaryotic microalga belonging to Micractinium genus that was isolated from rhizosphere growing natural environment Portugal, presented analyzed. The...
The development of sustainable and controlled microalgae bioprocesses relies on robust rapid monitoring tools that facilitate continuous process optimization, ensuring high productivity minimizing response times. In this work, we analyse the influence medium formulation growth axenic Phaeodactylum tricornutumcultures use resulting data to develop machine learning (ML) models based spectroscopy. Our culture assays produced a comprehensive dataset 255 observations, enabling us train 55 (24 +...
Marine bacteria are a significant source of bioactive compounds for various biotechnological applications. Among these, actinomycetes have been found to produce wide range secondary metabolites interest. Saccharopolyspora is one the genera that has recognized as potential these compounds. This study reports characterization and genomic analysis sp. NFXS83, marine bacterium isolated from seawater Sado estuary in Portugal. The NFXS83 strain produced multiple functional stable extracellular...
We propose a systematic approach for monitoring important productivity parameters in Dunaliella salina culture using 2D fluorescence data. For this purpose, methodology based on Machine Learning algorithm Projection to Latent Structures Regression (PLSR) coupled with variable selection strategies was used. Additionally, robustness analysis is proposed support the validation of yielded models and provide measure their reliability. Robust (i.e., Q2 ≥ 0.5) parsimonious selecting down 3%...
The whole genome sequence of the carotenoid-producing Paracoccus sp. NFXS7, isolated from a marine saltern in Setúbal, Portugal, is presented herein. strain NFXS7 contains homologs crt genes involved astaxanthin biosynthesis, making it promising candidate for biotechnological applications.
2. Abstract We describe the whole genome sequences of seven diverse marine bacteria isolated from Portuguese environments that presented ability promoting growth model diatom, Phaeodactylum tricornutum. The bacterial will contribute for study genetic and molecular mechanisms involved in diatom-bacteria interactions.
The study presents the whole genome sequence of carotenoid-producing
Beneficial microalgae-bacteria interactions mediate important marine ecological processes and present potential for exploitation in the industrial production of microalgae. Members bacterial genus Cellulophaga are known their ability to interact with several organisms, including microalgae, however, not much is understood about properties. In this work we detailed characterization bacterium, lytica NFXS1, its synthesize valuable compounds such as zeaxanthin, modulate growth productivity two...
