Comparative genomics and expression levels of hydrophobins from eight mycorrhizal genomes Vrije Universiteit Brussel Universiteit Hasselt
Hydrophobins are small secreted proteins that are present as several gene copies in most fungal genomes. Their properties are now well understood: they are amphiphilic and assemble at hydrophilic/hydrophobic interfaces. However, their physiological functions remain largely unexplored, especially within mycorrhizal fungi. In this study, we identified hydrophobin genes and analysed their distribution in eight mycorrhizal genomes. We then ...
Comparative phenomics and targeted use of genomics reveals variation in carbon and nitrogen assimilation among different Brettanomyces bruxellensis strains KU Leuven Universiteit Gent
Recent studies have suggested a correlation between genotype groups of Brettanomyces bruxellensis and their source of isolation. To further explore this relationship, the objective of this study was to assess metabolic differences in carbon and nitrogen assimilation between different B. bruxellensis strains from three beverages, including beer, wine, and soft drink, using Biolog Phenotype Microarrays. While some similarities of physiology were ...
Chloroplast genomes of Rubiaceae: Comparative genomics and molecular phylogeny in subfamily Ixoroideae Plantentuin Meise / Agentschap Plantentuin Meise
In Rubiaceae phylogenetics, the number of markers often proved a limitation with authors failing to provide well-supported trees at tribal and generic levels. A robust phylogeny is a prerequisite to study the evolutionary patterns of traits at different taxonomic levels. Advances in next-generation sequencing technologies have revolutionized biology by providing, at reduced cost, huge amounts of data for an increased number of species. Due to ...

Application of comparative genomics of Acetobacter species facilitates genome-scale metabolic reconstruction of the Acetobacter ghanensis LMG 23848T and Acetobacter senegalensis 108B cocoa strains Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Acetobacter species play an import role during cocoa fermentation. However, Acetobacter ghanensis and Acetobacter senegalensis are outcompeted during fermentation of the cocoa pulp-bean mass, whereas Acetobacter pasteurianus prevails. In this paper, an in silico approach aimed at delivering some insights into the possible metabolic adaptations of A. ghanensis LMG 23848T and A. senegalensis 108B, two candidate starter culture strains for cocoa ...
Comparative genomics of Pandoraea, a genus enriched in xenobiotic biodegradation and metabolism Universiteit Gent
Comparative analysis of partial gyrB, recA, and gltB gene sequences of 84 Pandoraea reference strains and field isolates revealed several clusters that included no taxonomic reference strains. The gyrB, recA, and gltB phylogenetic trees were used to select 27 strains for whole-genome sequence analysis and for a comparative genomics study that also included 41 publicly available Pandoraea genome sequences. The phylogenomic analyses included a ...
