Project description:Syntrophic acetate-oxidizing bacteria (SAOB) have been identified as key organisms for efficient biogas production from protein-rich materials. Tepidanaerobacter acetatoxydans is the first reported SAOB for which the genome has been sequenced. Genome analysis will aid us in understanding the mechanisms regulating syntrophy, particularly energy-conserving and electron transfer mechanisms.
Project description:A new strain of avian paramyxovirus type 6 (APMV-6), JL, has been isolated from mallard ducks in China, and its complete genome has been sequenced and analyzed. This work is the first announced complete genome sequence of APMV-6 from mallards.
