TL;DR: The genus Xanthomonas is a diverse and economically important group of bacterial phytopathogens, belonging to the γ-subdivision of the Proteobacteria, and several groups of strain-specific genes are identified and proposed mechanisms that may explain the differing host specificities and pathogenic processes are proposed.

TL;DR: The complete genome sequence of X. fastidiosa clone 9a5c is reported, providing direct evidence of phage-mediated horizontal gene transfer and indicating that the molecular basis for bacterial pathogenicity is both conserved and independent of host.
Journal ArticleDOI
Taxonomical and functional microbial community selection in soybean rhizosphere.
Lucas William Mendes,Eiko E. Kuramae,Acacio Aparecido Navarrete,Johannes A. van Veen,Siu Mui Tsai +4 more
TL;DR: The assembly of the microbial community in the rhizosphere is based on niche-based processes as a result of the selection power of the plant and other environmental factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conversion of the Amazon rainforest to agriculture results in biotic homogenization of soil bacterial communities.

TL;DR: It is reported here that microbial biodiversity also responds strongly to conversion of the Amazon rainforest, but in a manner different from plants and animals, and local taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity of soil bacteria increases after conversion, but communities become more similar across space.

TL;DR: Genome sequence analysis elucidates many of the novel aspects of leptospiral physiology relating to energy metabolism, oxygen tolerance, two-component signal transduction systems, and mechanisms of pathogenesis.
