TL;DR: These guidelines supplement the current rules of general bacterial taxonomy, which require a name that conforms to the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes, and deposition of the type strain in two international culture collections in separate countries.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates the promise of using new D-xylose-fermenting yeast strains from the Brazilian Amazonian Forest for ethanol or xylitol production from sugarcane bagasse hemicellulosic hydrolysates.

TL;DR: The data support the hypothesis that genes related to nitrogen fixation were obtained via horizontal gene transfer, as sequences of nifH genes were very similar to those found in members of the genera Rhizobium and Mesorhizobia, which are not immediate relatives of the genus Microvirga, as shown by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis.

TL;DR: Dark septate endophytes fungi were shown to increase the tolerance of rice plants to stress caused by water deficiency, as indicated by the decrease in antioxidant enzyme activity.

TL;DR: There was an inverse relationship between intrinsic antibiotic resistance and rhizobial diversity, while the last decreases as more legume crops are introduced into the area, the former increases, suggesting that the presence of legumes may provide ecological conditions to select specific Rhizobium groups, which acquire competitiveness traits and become successfully established.
