Project description:Genus Pseudoxanthomonas represents a relatively newly characterized group of gamma-proteobacterium of environmental origin. Species of the genus have very similar morphology to strains belonging to Xanthomonas, Xylella and Stenotrophomonas. However, the genome resource of this genus was largely unexplored. The species belonging to the genus are from a wide range of environmental sites including hydrocarbon polluted fields. Here, we have provided the whole genome sequence of all available type strains of the genus of Pseudoxanthomonas. In order to deduce the differences with closely related genera, we have employed the whole genome-based investigation of the type species of genus Pseudoxanthomonas.
Project description:One of the ultimate aims of systematics is the reconstruction of the tree of life. This is a huge undertaking that is inhibited by the existence of a computational limit to the inclusiveness of phylogenetic analyses. Supertree methods have been developed to overcome, or at least to go around this problem by combining smaller, partially overlapping cladograms. Here, we present a very inclusive generic-level supertree of Dinosauria (covering a total of 277 genera), which is remarkably well resolved and provides some clarity in many contentious areas of dinosaur systematics.
Project description:Nine Curtobacterium strains (three from three clades) were subjected to a lab desiccation experiment with no access to moisture or nutrients to compare between clades. RNA was extracted at days 0, 1, and 32 and sequenced
