TL;DR: The genome sequence provides the basis for the future design of strategies to mitigate the ecological damage caused by oil spills and provides A. borkumensis SK2 with a competitive edge in oil-polluted environments.

TL;DR: The complete genome sequence of the model Sorangium strain S. cellulosum So ce56 is reported, which produces several natural products and has morphological and physiological properties typical of the genus, and the circular genome is the largest bacterial genome sequenced to date.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The whole-genome sequence of the pepper-pathogenic Xanthomonas campestris pv.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complete genome of the mutualistic, N2-fixing grass endophyte Azoarcus sp. strain BH72

TL;DR: Genome comparison with the Azoarcus-related soil bacterium strain EbN1 revealed a surprisingly low degree of synteny, indicating a low rate of recent gene transfer that is presumably due to adaptation to a stable, low-stress microenvironment.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genome of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris B100 and its use for the reconstruction of metabolic pathways involved in xanthan biosynthesis
Frank-Jörg Vorhölter,Susanne Schneiker,Alexander Goesmann,Lutz Krause,Thomas Bekel,Olaf Kaiser,Burkhard Linke,Thomas Patschkowski,Christian Rückert,Joachim Schmid,Vishaldeep K. Sidhu,Volker Sieber,Andreas Tauch,Steven Alexander Watt,Bernd Weisshaar,Anke Becker,Karsten Niehaus,Alfred Pühler +17 more
TL;DR: From the genomic data the biosynthesis pathways for the production of the exopolysaccharide xanthan could be elucidated and the updated genome annotation data allowed reconsidering and refining the mechanistic model forxanthan biosynthesis.
