Project description:Streptococcus pneumoniae of serotype 3 possess a mucoid capsule and cause disease associated with high mortality rates relative to other pneumococci. Phylogenetic analysis of a complete reference genome and 81 draft sequences from clonal complex 180, the predominant serotype 3 clone in much of the world, found most sampled isolates belonged to a clade affected by few diversifying recombinations. However, other isolates indicate significant genetic variation has accumulated over the clonal complex's entire history. Two closely related genomes, one from the blood and another from the cerebrospinal fluid, were obtained from a patient with meningitis. The pair differed in their behaviour in a mouse model of disease and in their susceptibility to antimicrobials, with at least some of these changes attributable to a mutation that up-regulated the patAB efflux pump. This indicates clinically important phenotypic variation can accumulate rapidly through small alterations to the genotype. [Data is also available from http://bugs.sgul.ac.uk/E-BUGS-144]

Project description:Rhizoctonia solani Kühn is a soilborne basidiomycetous fungus that causes significant damage to many economically important crops. R. solani isolates are classified into 13 Anastomosis Groups (AGs) with interspecific subgroups having distinctive morphology, pathogenicity and wide host range. However, the genetic factors that drive the unique fungal pathology are still not well characterized due to the limited number of available annotated genomes. Therefore, we performed genome sequencing, assembly, annotation and functional analysis of 13 R. solani isolates covering 7 AGs and selected subgroups (AG1-IA, AG1-IB, AG1-IC, AG2-2IIIB, AG3-PT, AG3-TB, AG4-HG-I, AG5, AG6, and AG8). Here, we report a pangenome comparative analysis of 13 R. solani isolates covering important groups to elucidate unique and common attributes associated with each isolate, including molecular factors potentially involved in determining AG-specific host preference. Finally, we present the largest repertoire of annotated R. solani genomes, compiled as a comprehensive and user-friendly database, viz. RsolaniDB. Since 7 genomes are reported for the first time, the database stands as a valuable platform for formulating new hypotheses by hosting annotated genomes, with tools for functional enrichment, orthologs and sequence analysis, currently not available with other accessible state-of-the-art platforms hosting Rhizoctonia genome sequences.

Project description:Comparative genomic hybridisation of Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates from a single clonal complex, in order to determine genomic diversity. Isolates were selected from a range of tissue types and serotypes in order to cover the full diversity of the clone, and also in order to try and identify tissue-specific genes

Project description:Cotton bacterial blight (CBB), an important disease of (Gossypium hirsutum) in the early 20th century, had been controlled by resistant germplasm for over half a century. Recently, CBB re-emerged as an agronomic problem in the United States. Analysis of cotton variety planting statistics indicates a steady increase in the percentage of susceptible cotton varieties grown each year since 2009. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that strains from the current outbreak cluster with race 18 Xanthomonas citri pv. malvacearum (Xcm) strains. Illumina based draft genomes were generated for thirteen Xcm isolates. These genomes, along with 4 previously published Xcm genomes, encode 24 conserved and nine variable type three effectors. Strains in the race 18 clade contain 3 to 5 more effectors than other Xcm strains. SMRT sequencing of two geographically and temporally diverse strains of Xcm yielded circular chromosomes and accompanying plasmids. These genomes encode eight and thirteen distinct transcription activator-like effector genes. RNA-sequencing revealed 52 genes induced within two cotton cultivars by both tested Xcm strains. This gene list includes a homeologous pair of genes, with homology to the known susceptibility gene, MLO. In contrast, the two strains of Xcm induce different class III SWEET sugar transporters. Subsequent genome wide analysis revealed patterns in the overall expression of homeologous gene pairs in cotton after inoculation by Xcm. These data reveal host-pathogen specificity at the genetic level and strategies for future development of resistant cultivars.

Project description:Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) comprises opportunistic bacteria infecting hosts such as cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Bcc long-term infection of CF patient airways has been associated with emergence of phenotypic variation. Here we studied two Burkholderia multivorans clonal isolates (D2095 and D2214) displaying different morphotypes from a chronically infected CF patient in order to evaluate traits development during lung infection. Since the custom array described in platform GPL13356 was based on Burkholderia multivorans ATCC 17616 genome, here we performed a DNA-DNA hybridization to determine which probes of the array hybridize with our test genomes Total DNA was extracted from overnight cultures of the mucoid D2095 and the nonmucoid D2214 isolates grown in LB medium.
