Abstract:
Photosynthetic eukaryotes have a critical role as the main producers in most ecosystems of the biosphere. The ongoing environmental metabarcoding revolution opens the perspective for holistic ecosystems biological studies of these organisms, in particular the unicellular microalgae that often lack distinctive morphological characters and have complex life cycles. To interpret environmental sequences, metabarcoding necessarily relies on taxonomically curated databases containing reference sequences of the targeted gene (or barcode) from identified organisms. To date, no such reference framework

ABSTRACT Genomic analysis has revealed heterogeneity among bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequences within a single species; yet the cause(s) remains uncertain. Generalized transducing bacteriophages have recently gained recognition for their abundance as well as their ability to affect lateral gene transfer and to harbor bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequences. Here, we demonstrate the ability of broad-host-range, generalized transducing phages to acquire 16S rRNA genes and gene sequences. Using PCR and primers specific to conserved regions of the 16S rRNA gene, we have found that generalized transducing

ABSTRACT Several characteristics of the 16S rRNA gene, such as its essential function, ubiquity, and evolutionary properties, have allowed it to become the most commonly used molecular marker in microbial ecology.

These intragenomic copies can differ in sequence, leading to identification of multiple ribotypes for a single organism.

Abstract:
In disenfranchised communities, untreated greywater (wastewater without sewage) is often environmentally discharged, resulting in potential human exposure to antimicrobial-resistant bacteria (ARB), including extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producers. We sought to examine the abundance of ARB, specifically ESBLs, and antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) in greywater from off-grid, pastoral Bedouin villages in Southern Israel. Greywater samples (n = 21) collected from five villages were analyzed to enumerate fecal coliforms and Escherichia coli. ESBL producers were recovered on CHROMaga

Methanogens play an important role in the anaerobic digestion and production of methane, and show significant influence on the performance of anaerobic wastewater treatment process. Then the methanogens in anaerobic granular sludge samples from full-scale UASB bioreactors treating avermectin or starch wastewater were detected by FISH using 16S rRNA gene-based probe and functional gene-based probes. The results showed that the hybridization of methanogens in simultaneous FISH with mcrA gene-based and 16S rRNA gene-based probes was high coincident and the coincidence degree was about 60%-80%, im

Introduction. Sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene is the predominant method for assessing microbial communities and strain molecular identification. The short reads (2nd generation sequencing)-based technology does not allow analysis beyond the 16S rRNA gene. The taxonomic verification level of samples usually remains at the genus or even family level. Currently, there have been proposed the latest versions of long-read technologies (Oxford Nanopore MinION, PacBio) for amplicon sequencing of near-complete ribosomal operon, including genes 16S, 23S, 5S, and internal transcribed spacer (ITS).

In addition, inappropriate handing the specimens, misdiagnosis and limited standard medical support could directly influence the infection rate.
