MICROBIAL SPECIES AND INTRASPECIES UNITS EXIST AND ARE MAINTAINED BY ECOLOGICAL COHESIVENESS COUPLED TO HIGH HOMOLOGOUS RECOMBINATION

Microbial species and intraspecies units exist and are maintained by ecological cohesiveness coupled to high homologous recombination

Abstract Recent genomic analyses have revealed that microbial communities are predominantly composed of persistent, sequence-discrete species and intraspecies units Basketball - Accessories - Skill Training (genomovars), but the mechanisms that create and maintain these units remain unclear.By analyzing closely-related isolate genomes from the same

Altered expression levels of transcripts of GNAC TFs during drought stress in susceptible and tolerant cultivars of groundnut

By modulating gene expression, transcription factors (TFs) play a key role in conferring drought resistance.During drought, NAC, one of the major plant-specific transcription factor families, is found to be substantially up-regulated, indicating that it influences the gene(s) involved in drought tolerance.The goal of this study was to get insight i
