Project description:28 Streptomyces strains isolated from common scab lesions of potato tubers from a wide geographic range in Norway, were selected for microarray analysis. The selected strains were subjected to species identification by microarray, 16S phylogenetic analysis and PCR; and microarray-based comparative genome analysis. To our knowledge, this is the first report of S. turgidiscabies and S. europaeiscabiei in Norway.
Project description:In this study, we combined a subsystem-based comparative genomic approach with experimental validation to reconstruct the metabolic and regulatory networks of carbohydrate utilization in 11 complete genomes from the Thermotogales order.
