Biofilm removal mediated by Salmonella phages from chicken-related sources by Zhenzhen Ning, Lingling Zhang, Linlin Cai, Xinglian Xu, Ying Chen, Huhu Wang

“…In this work, 21 Salmonella phages were isolated from a chicken farm and slaughter plant and the phage (CW1) with the broadest spectrum was characterized. Complete genome sequence analysis revealed that the genomes of phage CW1 is composed of 41763 bp with 58 open reading frames (ORFs) and a holin-endolysin system and it does not encode any virulence or lysogeny. …”

Novel cycloviruses identified by mining human blood metagenomic data show close relationship to those from animals by Yuanqing Wang, Yuanqing Wang, Xiaojie Jiang, Yuan Xi, Siqi Wei, Songyi Ning, Wen Zhang, Wen Zhang

“…We used viral metagenomics to mine, analyze, and visualize the human blood virome, successfully identifying three new genomes, each encoding Rep and Capsid proteins. These proteins are crucial for viral replication and host-cell interaction: the Rep protein is involved in initiating viral genome replication, while the Capsid protein plays a key role in the assembly of new virions and the virus's ability to interact with host immune systems. …”

Faster model-based estimation of ancestry proportions by Santander, Cindy G., Refoyo Martinez, Alba, Meisner, Jonas

“…We further show that fastmixture runs approximately 30$\times$ faster than ADMIXTURE on both simulated and empirical data from the 1000 Genomes Project such that our model-based approach scales to much larger sample sizes than previously possible.…”

Global biogeography and projection of antimicrobial toxin genes by Ya Liu, Yu Geng, Yiru Jiang, Jingyu Sun, Peng Li, Yue-zhong Li, Zheng Zhang

“…Results Here, we identified 4400 ATG clusters from 149 families by correlating 10,000 samples worldwide with over 200,000 microbial genome data. We demonstrated that global microbial communities universally encode complex and diverse ATGs, with widespread differences across various habitats. …”

Natural repeated backcrosses lead to triploidy and tetraploidy in parthenogenetic butterfly lizards (Leiolepis: Agamidae) by Eduard Galoyan, Roman Nazarov, Marie Altmanová, Sergey Matveevsky, Ivan Kropachev, Dmitrij Dedukh, Eugene Iryshkov, Mark Pankin, Natalia Sopilko, Oleg Nikolaev, Nikolai Orlov, Marine Arakelyan, Jiří Klíma, Evgeniya Solovyeva, Tao Nguyen, Lukáš Kratochvíl

“…Within the range of L. guentherpetersi, we found an adult tetraploid male with three L. guttata and one L. reevesii haploid genomes. It probably originated from fertilisation of an unreduced triploid L. guentherpetersi egg by a L. guttata sperm. …”

Endogenous Murine Leukemia Viruses: Relationship to XMRV and Related Sequences Detected in Human DNA Samples by Oya Cingöz, John M. Coffin

“…The sequence similarity between XMRV and murine leukemia viruses (MLVs) was consistent with an origin of XMRV from one or more MLVs present as endogenous proviruses in mouse genomes. Here, we review the relationship of the human and mouse virus isolates and discuss the potential complications associated with the detection of MLV-like sequences from clinical samples.…”
