607700.9809Brytella acorum gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel acetic acid bacterium from sour beverages. Polyphasic taxonomic and comparative genomic analyses revealed that a series of lambic beer isolates including strain LMG 32668(T) and the kombucha isolate LMG 32879 represent a novel species among the acetic acid bacteria, with Acidomonas methanolica as the nearest phylogenomic neighbor with a valid name. Overall genomic relatedness indices and phylogenomic and physiological analyses revealed that this novel species was best classified in a novel genus for which we propose the name Brytella acorum gen. nov., sp. nov., with LMG 32668(T) (=CECT 30723(T)) as the type strain. The B. acorum genomes encode a complete but modified tricarboxylic acid cycle, and complete pentose phosphate, pyruvate oxidation and gluconeogenesis pathways. The absence of 6-phosphofructokinase which rendered the glycolysis pathway non-functional, and an energy metabolism that included both aerobic respiration and oxidative fermentation are typical metabolic characteristics of acetic acid bacteria. Neither genome encodes nitrogen fixation or nitrate reduction genes, but both genomes encode genes for the biosynthesis of a broad range of amino acids. Antibiotic resistance genes or virulence factors are absent.202337429096
773810.9804The microbiome and its association with antibiotic resistance genes in the hadal biosphere at the Yap Trench. The hadal biosphere, the deepest part of the ocean, is known as the least-explored aquatic environment and hosts taxonomically diverse microbial communities. However, the microbiome and its association with antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the hadal ecosystem remain unknown. Here, we profiled the microbiome diversity and ARG occurrence in seawater and sediments of the Yap Trench (YT) using metagenomic sequencing. Within the prokaryote (bacteria and archaea) lineages, the main components of bacteria were Gammaproteobacteria (77.76 %), Firmicutes (8.36 %), and Alphaproteobacteria (2.25 %), whereas the major components of archaea were Nitrososphaeria (6.51 %), Nanoarchaeia (0.42 %), and Thermoplasmata (0.25 %), respectively. Taxonomy of viral contigs showed that the classified viral communities in YT seawater and sediments were dominated by Podoviridae (45.96 %), Siphoviridae (29.41 %), and Myoviridae (24.63 %). A large majority of viral contigs remained uncharacterized and exhibited endemicity. A total of 48 ARGs encoding resistance to 12 antibiotic classes were identified and their hosts were bacteria and viruses. Novel ARG subtypes mexF(YTV-1), mexF(YTV-2), mexF(YTV-3), vanR(YTV-1), vanS(YTV-1) (carried by unclassified viruses), and bacA(YTB-1) (carried by phylum Firmicutes) were detected in seawater samples. Overall, our findings imply that the hadal environment of the YT is a repository of viral and ARG diversity.202235870206

773330.9801A glance at the gut microbiota and the functional roles of the microbes based on marmot fecal samples. Research on the gut microbiota, which involves a large and complex microbial community, is an important part of infectious disease control. In China, few studies have been reported on the diversity of the gut microbiota of wild marmots. To obtain full details of the gut microbiota, including bacteria, fungi, viruses and archaea, in wild marmots, we have sequenced metagenomes from five sample-sites feces on the Hulun Buir Grassland in Inner Mongolia, China. We have created a comprehensive database of bacterial, fungal, viral, and archaeal genomes and aligned metagenomic sequences (determined based on marmot fecal samples) against the database. We delineated the detailed and distinct gut microbiota structures of marmots. A total of 5,891 bacteria, 233 viruses, 236 fungi, and 217 archaea were found. The dominant bacterial phyla were Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Actinomycetes. The viral families were Myoviridae, Siphoviridae, Phycodnaviridae, Herpesviridae and Podoviridae. The dominant fungi phyla were Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, and Blastocladiomycota. The dominant archaea were Biobacteria, Omoarchaea, Nanoarchaea, and Microbacteria. Furthermore, the gut microbiota was affected by host species and environment, and environment was the most important factor. There were 36,989 glycoside hydrolase genes in the microbiota, with 365 genes homologous to genes encoding β-glucosidase, cellulase, and cellulose β-1,4-cellobiosidase. Additionally, antibiotic resistance genes such as macB, bcrA, and msbA were abundant. To sum up, the gut microbiota of marmot had population diversity and functional diversity, which provides a basis for further research on the regulatory effects of the gut microbiota on the host. In addition, metagenomics revealed that the gut microbiota of marmots can degrade cellulose and hemicellulose.202337125200
774140.9797Microbial diversity of a full-scale UASB reactor applied to poultry slaughterhouse wastewater treatment: integration of 16S rRNA gene amplicon and shotgun metagenomic sequencing. The 16S rRNA gene amplicon and whole-genome shotgun metagenomic (WGSM) sequencing approaches were used to investigate wide-spectrum profiles of microbial composition and metabolic diversity from a full-scale UASB reactor applied to poultry slaughterhouse wastewater treatment. The data were generated by using MiSeq 2 × 250 bp and HiSeq 2 × 150 bp Illumina sequencing platforms for 16S amplicon and WGSM sequencing, respectively. Each approach revealed a distinct microbial community profile, with Pseudomonas and Psychrobacter as predominant genus for the WGSM dataset and Clostridium and Methanosaeta for the 16S rRNA gene amplicon dataset. The virome characterization revealed the presence of two viral families with Bacteria and Archaea as host, Myoviridae, and Siphoviridae. A wide functional diversity was found with predominance of genes involved in the metabolism of acetone, butanol, and ethanol synthesis; and one-carbon metabolism (e.g., methanogenesis). Genes related to the acetotrophic methanogenesis pathways were more abundant than methylotrophic and hydrogenotrophic, corroborating the taxonomic results that showed the prevalence of the acetotrophic genus Methanosaeta. Moreover, the dataset indicated a variety of metabolic genes involved in sulfur, nitrogen, iron, and phosphorus cycles, with many genera able to act in all cycles. BLAST analysis against Antibiotic Resistance Genes Database (ARDB) revealed that microbial community contained 43 different types of antibiotic resistance genes, some of them were associated with growth chicken promotion (e.g., bacitracin, tetracycline, and polymyxin).201728229558
520150.9795Complete genome of Enterobacter sichuanensis strain SGAir0282 isolated from air in Singapore. BACKGROUND: Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) bacteria, such as E. cloacae, E. sichuanensis, E. kobei, and E. roggenkampii, have been emerging as nosocomial pathogens. Many strains isolated from medical clinics were found to be resistant to antibiotics, and in the worst cases, acquired multidrug resistance. We present the whole genome sequence of SGAir0282, isolated from the outdoor air in Singapore, and its relevance to other ECC bacteria by in silico genomic analysis. RESULTS: Complete genome assembly of E. sichuanensis strain SGAir0282 was generated using PacBio RSII and Illumina MiSeq platforms, and the datasets were used for de novo assembly using Hierarchical Genome Assembly Process (HGAP) and error corrected with Pilon. The genome assembly consisted of a single contig of 4.71 Mb and with a G+C content of 55.5%. No plasmid was detected in the assembly. The genome contained 4371 coding genes, 83 tRNA and 25 rRNA genes, as predicted by NCBI's Prokaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline (PGAP). Among the genes, the antibiotic resistance related genes were included: Streptothricin acetdyltransferase (SatA), fosfomycin resistance protein (FosA) and metal-dependent hydrolases of the beta-lactamase superfamily I (BLI). CONCLUSION: Based on whole genome alignment and phylogenetic analysis, the strain SGAir0282 was identified to be Enterobacter sichuanensis. The strain possesses gene clusters for virulence, disease and defence, that can also be found in other multidrug resistant ECC type strains.202032127921

514780.9791Multiscale comparative pathogenomic analysis of Vibrio anguillarum linking serotype diversity, genomic plasticity and pathogenicity. Vibrio anguillarum is a major marine fish pathogen causing high mortality and potential zoonotic risks. Understanding its genomic diversity, virulence factors, and antibiotic resistance is crucial for aquaculture disease management. In this study, a comparative pan-genomic analysis of 16 V. anguillarum strains was conducted to examine core and accessory genome diversity, virulence factors, and antibiotic resistance mechanisms. The phylogenetic analysis was conducted using six core genes and SNPs to evaluate evolutionary relationships and pathogenic traits. The core genome contained 2,038 unique ORFs, while the accessory genome had 5,197 cloud genes, confirming an open pangenome. This study identified 118 pathogenic genomic islands, antibiotic resistance genes (tetracycline, quinolone, and carbapenem), and virulence factors, including type VI secretion system (T6SS) components and RTX toxins (hcp-2, vipB/mglB, rtxC). Core genes such as ftsI uncovered substantial evolutionary divergence among species, identifying more than 150 distinct SNPs. Phylogenetic analysis showed serotype-specific clustering, with O1 strains displaying genetic homogeneity, whereas O2 and O3 exhibited divergence, suggesting distinct evolutionary adaptations influencing pathogenicity and ecological interactions. These findings provide primary insights for developing molecular markers and targeted treatments for aquaculture pathogens.202540854641

SXG-1, was isolated from the liver of diseased hybrid sturgeon from Guizhou province, China. Methods Whole-genome sequencing was performed on the Illumina HiSeq 2500-PE125 platform with MPS (massively parallel sequencing) Illumina technology. All good quality paired reads were assembled using the SOAPdenovo into a number of scaffolds. PHI (Pathogen Host Interactions), VFDB (Virulence Factors of Pathogenic Bacteria) and ARDB (Antibiotic Resistance Genes Database) were used to analyses pathogenicity and drug resistance. Results Here we reported the complete genome sequence of Stenotrophomonas sp. SXG-1, which comprised 4534,602bp in 4077 coding sequences (CDS) with a G+C content of 66.42%. The genome contained 4 gene islands, 72 tRNAs and 13 rRNAs. According to the annotation analysis, strain SXG-1 encoded 22 genes related to the multidrug resistance. In addition to 10 genes conferring resistance to antimicrobial drugs of different classes via alternative mechanisms, 12 genes of efflux pumps were presented, 9 of which were reported for the first time in Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. Conclusion This was the first complete genome sequence of Stenotrophomonas sp. isolated from the sturgeon. The complete genome sequence of Stenotrophomonas sp. strain SXG-1 may provide insights into the mechanism of antimicrobial resistance and prevent disease.202032311503
7739100.9788Community ecology and functional potential of bacteria, archaea, eukarya and viruses in Guerrero Negro microbial mat. In this study, the microbial ecology, potential environmental adaptive mechanisms, and the potential evolutionary interlinking of genes between bacterial, archaeal and viral lineages in Guerrero Negro (GN) microbial mat were investigated using metagenomic sequencing across a vertical transect at millimeter scale. The community composition based on unique genes comprised bacteria (98.01%), archaea (1.81%), eukarya (0.07%) and viruses (0.11%). A gene-focused analysis of bacteria archaea, eukarya and viruses showed a vertical partition of the community. The greatest coverages of genes of bacteria and eukarya were detected in first layers, while the highest coverages of genes of archaea and viruses were found in deeper layers. Many genes potentially related to adaptation to the local environment were detected, such as UV radiation, multidrug resistance, oxidative stress, heavy metals, salinity and desiccation. Those genes were found in bacterial, archaeal and viral lineages with 6477, 44, and 1 genes, respectively. The evolutionary histories of those genes were studied using phylogenetic analysis, showing an interlinking between domains in GN mat.202438297006
2483110.9787Comparative genomic analysis of Proteus spp. isolated from tree shrews indicated unexpectedly high genetic diversity. Proteus spp. are commensal gastrointestinal bacteria in many hosts, but information regarding the mutual relationships between these bacteria and their hosts is limited. The tree shrew is an alternative laboratory animal widely used for human disease research. However, little is known about the relationship between Proteus spp. and tree shrews. In this study, the complete genome sequencing method was used to analyse the characteristics of Proteus spp. isolated from tree shrews, and comparative genomic analysis was performed to reveal their relationships. The results showed that 36 Proteus spp. bacteria were isolated, including 34 Proteus mirabilis strains and two Proteus vulgaris strains. The effective rate of sequencing was 93.53%±2.73%, with an average GC content of 39.94%±0.25%. Briefly, 3682.89±90.37, 2771.36±36.01 and 2832.06±42.49 genes were annotated in the NCBI non-redundant nucleotide database (NR), SwissProt database and KEGG database, respectively. The high proportions of macrolide-, vancomycin-, bacitracin-, and tetracycline-resistance profiles of the strains were annotated in the Antibiotic Resistance Genes Database (ARDB). Flagella, lipooligosaccharides, type 1 fimbriae and P fimbriae were the most abundantly annotated virulence factors in the Virulence Factor Database (VFDB). SNP variants indicated high proportions of base transitions (Ts), homozygous mutations (Hom) and non-synonymous mutations (Non-Syn) in Proteus spp. (P<0.05). Phylogenetic analysis of Proteus spp. and other references revealed high genetic diversity for strains isolated from tree shrews, and host specificity of Proteus spp. bacteria was not found. Overall, this study provided important information on characteristics of genome for Proteus spp. isolated from tree shrews.202032084183

IMI 507025 identity was determined via average nucleotide identity (ANI), obtaining an identity value of 99.5994% between IMI 507025 and the type strain P. pentosaceus ATCC 33316, identifying the strain as P. pentosaceus. Screening for the antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and virulence genes in the genome of IMI 507025 showed no hits, confirming the safety of the tested strain. Presence of plasmids was not found.202235864877
5216130.9785Unraveling the draft genome and phylogenomic analysis of a multidrug-resistant Planococcus sp. NCCP-2050(T): a promising novel bacteria from Pakistan. Planococcus is a genus of Gram-positive bacteria known for potential industrial and agricultural applications. Here, we report the first draft genome sequence and phylogenomic analysis of a CRISPR-carrying, multidrug-resistant, novel candidate Planococcus sp. NCCP-2050(T) isolated from agricultural soil in Pakistan. The strain NCCP-2050(T) exhibited significant resistance to various classes of antibiotics, including fluoroquinolones (i.e., ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, ofloxacin, moxifloxacin, and bacitracin), cephalosporins (cefotaxime, ceftazidime, cefoperazone), rifamycins (rifampicin), macrolides (erythromycin), and glycopeptides (vancomycin). Planococcus sp. NCCP-2050(T) consists of genome size of 3,463,905 bp, comprised of 3639 annotated genes, including 82 carbohydrate-active enzyme genes and 39 secondary metabolite genes. The genome also contained 80 antibiotic resistance, 162 virulence, and 305 pathogen-host interaction genes along with two CRISPR arrays. Based on phylogenomic analysis, digital DNA-DNA hybridization, and average nucleotide identity values (i.e., 35.4 and 88.5%, respectively) it was suggested that strain NCCP-2050(T) might represent a potential new species within the genus Planococcus.

6080140.9785Metagenomic Insights into the Taxonomic and Functional Features of Traditional Fermented Milk Products from Russia. Fermented milk products (FMPs) contain probiotics that are live bacteria considered to be beneficial to human health due to the production of various bioactive molecules. In this study, nine artisanal FMPs (kefir, ayran, khurunga, shubat, two cottage cheeses, bryndza, khuruud and suluguni-like cheese) from different regions of Russia were characterized using metagenomics. A metagenomic sequencing of ayran, khurunga, shubat, khuruud and suluguni-like cheese was performed for the first time. The taxonomic profiling of metagenomic reads revealed that Lactococcus species, such as Lc. lactis and Lc. cremoris prevailed in khuruud, bryndza, one sample of cottage cheese and khurunga. The latter one together with suluguni-like cheese microbiome was dominated by bacteria, affiliated to Lactobacillus helveticus (32-35%). In addition, a high proportion of sequences belonging to the genera Lactobacillus, Lactococcus and Streptococcus but not classified at the species level were found in the suluguni-like cheese. Lactobacillus delbrueckii, as well as Streptococcus thermophilus constituted the majority in another cottage cheese, kefir and ayran metagenomes. The microbiome of shubat, produced from camel's milk, was significantly distinctive, and Lentilactobacillus kefiri, Lactobacillus kefiranofaciens and Bifidobacterium mongoliense represented the dominant components (42, 7.4 and 5.6%, respectively). In total, 78 metagenome-assembled genomes with a completeness ≥ 50.2% and a contamination ≤ 8.5% were recovered: 61 genomes were assigned to the Enterococcaceae, Lactobacillaceae and Streptococcaceae families (the Lactobacillales order within Firmicutes), 4 to Bifidobacteriaceae (the Actinobacteriota phylum) and 2 to Acetobacteraceae (the Proteobacteria phylum). A metagenomic analysis revealed numerous genes, from 161 to 1301 in different products, encoding glycoside hydrolases and glycosyltransferases predicted to participate in lactose, alpha-glucans and peptidoglycan hydrolysis as well as exopolysaccharides synthesis. A large number of secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters, such as lanthipeptides, unclassified bacteriocins, nonribosomal peptides and polyketide synthases were also detected. Finally, the genes involved in the synthesis of bioactive compounds like β-lactones, terpenes and furans, nontypical for fermented milk products, were also found. The metagenomes of kefir, ayran and shubat was shown to contain either no or a very low count of antibiotic resistance genes. Altogether, our results show that traditional indigenous fermented products are a promising source of novel probiotic bacteria with beneficial properties for medical and food industries.202338276185
5214150.9785Comparative genomic analysis of a new tellurite-resistant Psychrobacter strain isolated from the Antarctic Peninsula. The Psychrobacter genus is a cosmopolitan and diverse group of aerobic, cold-adapted, Gram-negative bacteria exhibiting biotechnological potential for low-temperature applications including bioremediation. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of a bacterium from the Psychrobacter genus isolated from a sediment sample from King George Island, Antarctica (3,490,622 bp; 18 scaffolds; G + C = 42.76%). Using phylogenetic analysis, biochemical properties and scanning electron microscopy the bacterium was identified as Psychrobacter glacincola BNF20, making it the first genome sequence reported for this species. P. glacincola BNF20 showed high tellurite (MIC 2.3 mM) and chromate (MIC 6.0 mM) resistance, respectively. Genome-wide nucleotide identity comparisons revealed that P. glacincola BNF20 is highly similar (>90%) to other uncharacterized Psychrobacter spp. such as JCM18903, JCM18902, and P11F6. Bayesian multi-locus phylogenetic analysis showed that P. glacincola BNF20 belongs to a polyphyletic clade with other bacteria isolated from polar regions. A high number of genes related to metal(loid) resistance were found, including tellurite resistance genetic determinants located in two contigs: Contig LIQB01000002.1 exhibited five ter genes, each showing putative promoter sequences (terACDEZ), whereas contig LIQB1000003.2 showed a variant of the terZ gene. Finally, investigating the presence and taxonomic distribution of ter genes in the NCBI's RefSeq bacterial database (5,398 genomes, as January 2017), revealed that 2,623 (48.59%) genomes showed at least one ter gene. At the family level, most (68.7%) genomes harbored one ter gene and 15.6% exhibited five (including P. glacincola BNF20). Overall, our results highlight the diverse nature (genetic and geographic diversity) of the Psychrobacter genus, provide insights into potential mechanisms of metal resistance, and exemplify the benefits of sampling remote locations for prospecting new molecular determinants.201829479501
7732160.9783Rapid evolution of symbiotic bacteria populations in spirotetramat-resistant Aphis gossypii glover revealed by pyrosequencing. Aphis gossypii is one of the most economically important insect pests for agriculture worldwide. Aphids have developed symbiotic associations with bacterial species, which has led to morphological and molecular differences, such as body color and insecticide resistance. Adults and 3rd instar nymphs of a laboratory-selected spirotetramat-resistant strain of cotton aphid presented 579-fold and 15-fold higher resistance to spirotetramat, respectively, than a susceptible strain (Pan et al., 2015; Peng et al., 2016). In this study, we found that antibiotics, especially ampicillin and tetracycline, increased spirotetramat toxicity in resistant aphids. We also characterized all of the bacterial endosymbionts in these two clones by sequencing the 16S rRNA genes of the endosymbiont. The total reads could be clustered into 3534 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) that showed 97% similarity and belonged to six abundant phyla. Proteobacteria and Firmicutes dominated in the two strains, and the most abundant families were Enterobacteriaceae, Lactobacillaceae and Rhodobiaceae. The genera Arsenophonus, Anderseniella, Buchnera and Lactobacillus were most abundant in the susceptible strain, whereas a significant decrease in abundance of Anderseniella and a great increase in abundance of Arsenophonus and Lactobacillus were observed in the resistant strain. Certain identified species had low sequence similarity to the reported species, which indicates the possibility of novel taxa. The type and abundance of different bacterial groups varied significantly between the two strains. The insecticide selection pressure could be the reason for the observed shift in the bacteria groups. These results increase our understanding of the symbiotic relationships between bacteria and their hosts under insecticide stress and provide clues for the development of potential control techniques against this cotton aphid.201627788413
827170.9782Characterization of a ST137 multidrug-resistant Campylobacter jejuni strain with a tet(O)-positive genomic island from a bloodstream infection patient. Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni) is a major cause of gastroenteritis and rarely cause bloodstream infection. Herein, we characterized a multidrug-resistant C. jejuni strain LZCJ isolated from a tumor patient with bloodstream infection. LZCJ was resistant to norfloxacin, ampicillin, ceftriaxone, ciprofloxacin and tetracycline. It showed high survival rate in serum and acidic environment. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis revealed that strain LZCJ had a single chromosome of 1,629,078 bp (30.6 % G + C content) and belonged to the ST137 lineage. LZCJ shared the highest identity of 99.66 % with the chicken-derived C. jejuni MTVDSCj20. Four antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) were detected, bla(OXA-61), tet(O), gyrA (T86I), and cmeR (G144D and S207G). In addition, a 12,746 bp genomic island GI_LZCJ carrying 15 open reading frames (ORFs) including the resistance gene tet(O) was identified. Sequence analysis found that the GI_LZCJ was highly similar to the duck-derived C. jejuni ZS004, but with an additional ISChh1-like sequence. 137 non-synonymous mutations in motility related genes (flgF, fapR, flgS), capsular polysaccharide (CPS) coding genes (kpsE, kpsF, kpsM, kpsT), metabolism associated genes (nuoF, nuoG, epsJ, holB), and transporter related genes (comEA, gene0911) were confirmed in LZCJ compared with the best closed chicken-derived strain MTVDSCj20. Our study showed that C. jejuni strain LZCJ was highly similar to the chicken-derived strain MTVDSCj20 but with a lot of SNPs involved in motility, CPS and metabolism coding genes. This strain possessed a tet(O)-positive genomic island GI_LZCJ, which was closed to duck-derived C. jejuni ZS004, but with an additional ISChh1-like sequence. The above data indicated that the LZCJ strain may originate from foodborne bacteria on animals and the importance of continuous surveillance for the spread of foodborne bacteria.202439208964
1786180.9781Correlation analysis of whole genome sequencing of a pathogenic Escherichia coli strain of Inner Mongolian origin. Anal swabs of 1-month-old Holstein calves with diarrhea were collected from an intensive cattle farm, and a highly pathogenic Escherichia coli strain was obtained by isolation and purification. To study the virulence and resistance genes of pathogenic E. coli that cause diarrhea in calves, a strain of E. coli E12 isolated from calf diarrhea samples was used as experimental material in this experiment, and the virulence of the E12 strain were identified by the mouse infection test, and the whole genome map of the E12 strain were obtained by whole-genome sequencing and analyzed for genome characterization. The results showed that the lethality of strain E12 was 100%, the total length of E12-encoded genes was 4,294,530 bp, Cluster of Orthologous Groups of proteins (COG) annotated to 4,194 functional genes, and the virulence genes of sequenced strain E12 were compared with the virulence genes of sequenced strain E12 from the Virulence Factors of Pathogenic Bacteria (VFDB), which contained a total of 366 virulence genes in sequenced strain E12. The analysis of virulence genes of E12 revealed a total of 52 virulence genes in the iron transferrin system, 56 virulence genes in the secretory system, 41 virulence genes in bacterial toxins, and a total of 217 virulence genes in the Adhesin and Invasins group. The antibiotic resistance genes of sequenced strain E12 were identified through the Antibiotic Resistance Genes Database (ARDB) and Comprehensive Antibiotic Research Database, and it was found that its chromosome and plasmid included a total of 127 antibiotic resistance genes in four classes, and that E12 carried 71 genes related to the antibiotic efflux pumps, 36 genes related to antibiotic inactivation, and 14 antibiotic target alteration and reduced penetration into antibiotics, and 6 antibiotic resistance genes, and the resistance phenotypes were consistent with the genotypes. The pathogenic E. coli that causes diarrhea in calves on this ranch contains a large number of virulence and resistance genes. The results provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of diarrhea and other diseases caused by E. coli disease.202438969720
5178190.9781Thermophilic Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain Ch39 isolated from Chignahuapan hot springs in Puebla, Mexico. Thermophilic bacteria have specific metabolic specializations to survive at high temperatures. This study focuses on Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain Ch39, a new isolate from mineral-rich thermal water from Chignahuapan, Puebla, Mexico. Biochemical testing, whole genome sequencing, and antimicrobial resistance profiling of strain Ch39 yielded significant detailed results. Genome sequencing yielded a high-quality 6.68 Mb assembly with a GC content of 66.13%, and annotation identified 4 356 protein-coding genes, including heat shock and antibiotic resistance genes. Comparative analysis of growth kinetics with the reference strains ATCC 27853 and PAO1 showed that Ch39 exhibited good growth and thermotolerance, with viability at 45°C, due to putative genetic adaptations such as heat shock proteins. Antibiotic resistance profiling showed variability in resistance profiles and the presence of resistance genes. In particular, strain Ch39 showed increased minimum inhibitory concentrations for some of the antibiotics tested, such as tetracycline (>1000 µg/mL), compared to the control strains. The observations made here emphasize the thermoadaptation of the strain and its suitability as a reservoir for antibiotic-resistance genes. This study expands our understanding of the thermophilic adaptation of P. aeruginosa and its ecological and clinical significance.202540240292
