Molecular typing of enteroviruses: comparing 5'UTR, VP1 and whole genome sequencing methods

T. Gulholm, M. Yeang, I Nguyen, P. Andrews, R. Balgahom, R. Beresford, J. Branley, R. Briest, P. Britton, R. Burrell, N. Gehrig, A. Kesson, J. Kok, M. Maley, J. Newcombe, H. Samarasekara, S. Van Hal, H. Varadhan, K. Thapa, S. Jones, P. Newton, Z. Naing, S. Stelzer-Braid, W. Rawlinson

Summary: This study evaluates the accuracy of genotyping EVs using 5'UTR, VP1, and WGS. The results show that genotyping with WGS and VP1 is more accurate than using 5'UTR, although the 5'UTR method is highly sensitive, it is less specific.

Benchmarking genome assembly methods on metagenomic sequencing data

Zhenmiao Zhang, Chao Yang, Werner Pieter Veldsman, Xiaodong Fang, Lu Zhang

Summary: This paper comprehensively evaluates 19 commonly used assembly tools on metagenomic sequencing datasets from simulation, mock communities, and human gut microbiomes. It finds that long-read assemblers generate high contig contiguity but fail to reveal some medium- and high-quality metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs). Linked-read assemblers obtain the highest number of overall near-complete MAGs from the human gut microbiomes. Hybrid assemblers using both short- and long-read sequencing are promising methods to improve both total assembly length and the number of near-complete MAGs. The paper also discusses the running time and memory consumption of these assembly tools and provides practical guidance for selecting them.

A large-scale whole-genome sequencing analysis reveals false positives of bacterial essential genes

Yuanhao Li, Bo Jiang, Weijun Dai

Summary: Essential genes are crucial for bacterial viability and new drug discovery, but some false positives generated by Tn-seq may result from gene deletions by bacteria themselves. Deleting genes should be considered when evaluating essentiality, as it has been underestimated in previous studies.

Genomic and Transcriptomic Analysis of Bovine Pasteurella multocida Serogroup A Strain Reveals Insights Into Virulence Attenuation

Li Zhan, Jiaqi Zhang, Boyu Zhao, Xintian Li, Xiqing Zhang, Renge Hu, Emad Mohammed Elken, Lingcong Kong, Yunhang Gao

Summary: Pasteurella multocida, a primary pathogen causing bovine respiratory disease, has developed a high fluoroquinolone resistant strain Pm64 through continuous exposure to enrofloxacin. Despite minimal genomic differences between the Pm3 and Pm64 strains, several genes related to virulence were found to be differentially expressed, potentially contributing to the attenuation of pathogenicity in Pm64. This study sheds light on the mechanisms of virulence attenuation in antibiotic-resistant P. multocida, providing valuable insights for combating antimicrobial resistance.

Comparative Analysis of Genotyping by Sequencing and Whole-Genome Sequencing Methods in Diversity Studies of Olea europaea L.

James Friel, Aureliano Bombarely, Carmen Dorca Fornell, Francisco Luque, Ana Maria Fernandez-Ocana

Summary: Olive, a tree species of great economic and cultural importance in the Mediterranean region, has numerous cultivars that can be characterized using different genetic methods. Both whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and genotype by sequencing (GBS) yield similar results in olive genotyping, with GBS being a cost-effective option for characterizing genetic relationships between different accessions. The study also suggests that variants from GBS and WGS datasets can be combined, enabling the reuse of publicly available data.

Advances in genomics for diversity studies and trait improvement in temperate fruit and nut crops under changing climatic scenarios

Ikra Manzoor, Kajal Samantara, Momin Showkat Bhat, Iqra Farooq, Khalid Mushtaq Bhat, Mohammad Amin Mir, Shabir Hussain Wani

Summary: Conventional breeding methods are not sufficient for genetic improvement of temperate fruit and nut crops due to their time-consuming and costly nature. The presence of various constraints further complicates the selection and improvement process. To overcome these challenges, the use of advanced biotechnological tools, such as molecular marker approaches, is highly necessary. Molecular markers enable direct selection of genomic regions governing desired traits, saving time and space during the screening process. This review highlights the potential of molecular marker approaches in revealing valuable information about genetic diversity and phylogeny, thus aiding in the improvement of temperate fruit and nut species with respect to adaptability and stress resistance.
