Article Abstract

We present here draft genome sequences of five Staphylococcus aureus strains obtained from children suffering from atopic dermatitis. The strains were determined to be of five different sequence types (sequence type 1 [ST1], ST7, ST8, ST15, and ST101) and carried a unique combination of superantigen-like protein (SSL) and serine protease genes.

Symphonia globulifera (Clusiaceae) has emerged as a model organism in tropical forest ecology and evolution due to its significant ecological role and complex biogeographical history. Originating from Africa, this species has independently colonized Caribbean, Central and South America three times, becoming a key component of tropical ecosystems across these regions. Despite the ecological importance of S.

Biofilm formation and other virulence phenotypes under quorum sensing regulation play a vital role in the pathogenicity of Aeromonas hydrophila, triggering the emergence of multi-drug resistance (MDR) which increases fish mortality, environmental issues, and economic loss in aquaculture, necessitating the discovery of novel drugs to bypass standard antibiotics. Here, quorum quenching (QQ) may be a sustainable anti-virulent approach. β-Lactamase enzyme obtained from Chromohalobacter sp.

We report the draft genome sequence of iso11, a polypropylene-degrading bacterium isolated from a peat bog in Northern Ireland. Sequencing identified a 5,845,760 bp genome with 67.98% GC content, and annotation revealed several genes associated with hydrocarbon and plastic biodegradation, highlighting its potential for their bioremediation.
