Xylella fastidiosa is a xylem-dwelling, insect-transmitted, gamma-proteobacterium that causes diseases in many plants, including grapevine, citrus, periwinkle, almond, oleander, and coffee. X. has an unusually broad host range, extensive geographical distribution throughout the American continent, induces diverse disease phenotypes. Previous molecular analyses indicated three distinct groups of isolates were expected to be genetically divergent. Here we report genome sequence (Temecula...
Abstract Background Citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC), caused by Xylella fastidiosa , is one the most important citrus diseases, and affects all varieties of sweet orange ( sinensis L. Osb). On other hand, among genus there are different sources resistance against X. . For these species identifying defense genes could be an step towards obtaining resistant through breeding or genetic engineering. To assess we made use mandarin C. reticulata Blanco) that known to CVC shares agronomical...
This study investigated the long-term effects (13 months) of encapsulated nitrate supplementation (ENS) on enteric methane emissions, rumen fermentation parameters, ruminal bacteria, and diversity archaea in grazing beef cattle. We used a total thirty-two Nellore steers (initial BW 197 ± 15.3 kg), 12 which were fitted with cannulas. For 13 months, animals maintained paddocks fed concentrate ground corn, soybean meals, mineral supplements, urea (URS) or (EN) containing 70 g EN/100 kg...
Gummosis and root rot caused by Phytophthora are among the most economically important diseases in citrus. Four F1 resistant hybrids (Pool R), four susceptible S) to P. parasitica, were selected from a cross between Citrus sunki Poncirus trifoliata cv. Rubidoux. We investigated gene expression pools of comparison with their parents 48 hours after parasitica inoculation. proposed that genes differentially expressed provide promising candidates for identifying transcripts involved disease...
Resistance inducers have been used in annual crops as an alternative for disease control. Wood perennial fruit trees, such those of the citrus species, are candidates treatment with resistance inducers, salicylic acid (SA) and chitosan (CHI). However, involved mechanisms induced by elicitors currently few known. In present manuscript, we report information regarding transcriptional changes observed sweet orange response to exogenous applications SA CHI using RNA-seq technology. More genes...
Investigations of biofilm resistance response rarely focus on plant-pathogenic bacteria. Since Xylella fastidiosa is a multihost bacterium that forms in the xylem, behavior its to antimicrobial compounds needs be better investigated. We analyzed here transcriptional profile X. subsp. pauca inhibitory and subinhibitory concentrations copper tetracycline. Copper-based products are routinely used control citrus diseases field, while antibiotics more widely for bacterial mammals. The use...
Human activities on the Earth's surface change landscape of natural ecosystems. Mining practices are one most severe human activities, drastically altering chemical, physical and biological properties soil environment. Bacterial communities in play an important role maintenance ecological relationships. This work shows bacterial diversity, metabolic repertoire physiological behavior five ecosystems samples with different levels impact. These belong to a historical area Iron Quadrangle, Minas...
Hospital-associated infections (HAIs) are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in intensive care units (ICUs) neonatal (NICUs). Organisms causing these often present on surfaces around the patient. Given that microbiota may vary across different ICUs, HAI-related microbial signatures within remain underexplored. In this study, we use deep-sequencing analyses to explore compare structure bacterial communities at inanimate ICU NICU wards The Medical School Clinics Hospital (Brazil). data...
The present energy and the waste accumulation crisis make development of bioelectrochemical systems each day more important as a technology for coupled waste-treatment, electricity production, biorefinement, whilst closing circular economy loop. However, its application is still hampered by complexity biocatalysts. This study evaluated, from an ecological metabolic point view, Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) inoculated with Brazilian marine sediment fed synthetic wastewaters contaminated iron...
The Amazon Basin is the largest hydrographic basin on planet, and dynamics of its aquatic microorganisms strongly impact global biogeochemical cycles. However, it remains poorly studied. This metagenome project was performed to obtain a snapshot prokaryotic microbiota from four important lakes in Basin.
The objective of this study was to investigate three storage methods and four times for rumen sampling in terms quality yield extracted metagenomic DNA as well the composition bacterial community. One Nellore steer fitted with a ruminal silicone-type cannula used donor contents. experiment comprised 11 experimental groups: pellet control (PC), lyophilized (LC), P-20: stored frozen at -20°C period 3, 6, 12 months, P-80: -80°C L-20: sample months. Metagenomic concentrations were measured...
Tropical freshwater environments, like rivers, are important reservoirs of microbial life. This study employed metagenomic sequencing to survey prokaryotic microbiota in the Solimões, Purus, and Urucu Rivers Amazon Basin Brazil. We report a rich diverse community.
Huanglonbing (HLB) is one of the most destructive disease affecting citrus plants. The causal agent associated with phloem-limited bacterium Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas) and psyllid Diaphorina citri, vector disease, that transmits HLB. control can be achieved by suppressing either or vector. Among strategies for HLB widely used consists in controlling enzymes vector, citri. insect citri belongs to order Hemiptera, which frequently have cysteine peptidases gut. importance this...
The objective of this study was to determine whether a combination crude glycerin (CG) and soyabean oil (SO) could be used partially replace maize in the diet Nellore steers while maintaining optimum feed utilisation. Eight castrated fitted with ruminal duodenal cannulas were double 4×4 Latin square design balanced for residual effects, factorial arrangement (A×B), when factor A corresponded provision SO, B CG. Steers SO CG showed similar DM intake, DM, organic matter neutral-detergent fibre...
ABSTRACT Chitinophaga comprises microorganisms capable of degrading plant-derived carbohydrates, serving as a source new tools for the characterization and degradation plant biomass. Here, we report draft genome assembly strain with 8.2 Mbp 7,173 open reading frames (ORFs), isolated from bacterial consortium that is able to degrade lignocellulose.
