In silico identification of chilli genome encoded MicroRNAs targeting the 16S rRNA and secA genes of “Candidatus phytoplasma trifolii”

Citation
Pandey et al. (2025). Frontiers in Bioinformatics 4
Names
Ca. Phytoplasma trifolii
Abstract
Phytoplasma, a potentially hazardous pathogen associated with witches’ broom, is an economically harmful disease-producing bacteria that damages chilli cultivation. Phytoplasma-infected plants display various symptoms that indicate significant disruptions in normal plant physiology and behaviour. Diseases caused by phytoplasma are widespread and have a major economic impact on crop quality and yield. This work focuses on identifying and examining chilli microRNAs (miRNAs) as potential targets ag

Genomic Analysis of ‘Candidatus Liberibacter africanus’ Strain from Zimbabwe Reveals Unique Virulence and Prophage Characteristics Compared with ‘Ca. L. asiaticus’

“Liberibacter solanacearum” Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus Ca. Liberibacter africanus Liberibacter
Abstract
Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB) is caused by the phloem-limited α-proteobacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter spp.’, among which ‘Ca. L. africanus’ (CLaf) has posed a significant threat to citrus production in Africa for nearly a century. CLaf is closely related to the globally prevalent ‘Ca. L. asiaticus’ (CLas), whereas little is known about the virulence of CLaf, primarily because of limited genome resources. In this study, we completed the whole-genome assembly and annotation of the CLaf strain Zim

‘Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris’ (16SrI) Y Dalbulus maidis ASOCIADOS CON SÍNTOMAS DE HOJA BLANCA EN MAÍZ

Citation

Names
Ca. Phytoplasma asteris
Abstract
El maíz (Zea mays L.) se ha constituido como el cultivo de mayor importancia económica a nivel mundial; esté cereal perteneciente a la familia Poaceae, es originario de México y utilizado tanto para consumo humano como ganadero. En México, su importancia va mucho mas allá de lo económico, su influencia a nivel social y cultural se ha visto plasmada en los vestigios de civilizaciones antiguas como la establecida por los mayas, para quienes el maíz tenía un significado religioso; sin embargo, algu

Analysis of the Distribution Pattern and Prophage Types in Candidatus Liberibacter Asiaticus ‘Cuimi’ Kumquat

Citation

Names
Liberibacter
Abstract
The ‘Cuimi’ kumquat is a unique citrus cultivar known for its thin, crisp pulp and sweet, aromatic flavor. In addition to its use in fresh consumption and processing, this variety exhibits certain medicinal properties. This study aims to investigate the genetic diversity of the Huanglongbing (HLB) bacterium across different tissues of the ‘Cuimi’ kumquat, offering a theoretical basis for understanding the HLB epidemic in Dechang County, Sichuan. The research focuses on the absolute quantificatio

Influencia de la nutrición balanceada en la inducción floral y vegetativa del limón Persa (Citrus latifolia) infectados con Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus

Citation

Names
Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus
Abstract
El Huanglongbing, causado por Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas), es una de las enfermedades más destructivas de los cítricos, afectando gravemente la producción de limón Persa. Este estudio se enfocó en evaluar el impacto de diferentes tratamientos nutricionales en la inducción floral y vegetativa de árboles infectados con CLas. El experimento se realizó en un huerto en San Rafael, Veracruz, México, con árboles jóvenes enfermos con HLB. El diseño experimental consistió en bloques al azar

Deep terrestrial indigenous microbial community dominated by Candidatus Frackibacter

Abstract
AbstractCharacterizing deep subsurface microbial communities informs our understanding of Earth’s biogeochemistry as well as the search for life beyond the Earth. Here we characterized microbial communities within the Kidd Creek Observatory subsurface fracture water system with mean residence times of hundreds of millions to over one billion years. 16S rRNA analysis revealed that biosamplers well isolated from the mine environment were dominated by a putatively anaerobic and halophilic bacterial

Comparison of qPCR protocols for quantification of “Candidatus Saccharibacteria”, belonging to the Candidate Phyla Radiation, suggests that 23S rRNA is a better target than 16S rRNA

Abstract
Background Candidate Phyla Radiation (CPR) is a large monophyletic group encompassing about 25% of bacterial diversity. Among CPR, “Candidatus Saccharibacteria” is one of the most clinically relevant phyla. Indeed, it is enriched in the oral microbiota of subjects suffering from immune-mediated disorders and it has been found to have immunomodulatory activities. For these reasons, it is crucial to have reliable methods to detect and quantify this bacterial lineage in human samples, including sa
