The microbial pan-genome
1.2K
TL;DR: A decade after the beginning of the genomic era, the question of how genomics can describe a bacterial species has not been fully addressed and the pan-genome, which is composed of a "core genome" containing genes present in all strains, and a "dispensable genome", might be orders of magnitude larger than any single genome.

Genome characteristics of clinical Salmonella enterica population from a state public health laboratory, New Hampshire, USA, 2017–2020
Madison R. Turcotte,Joshua T. Smith,Jinfeng Li,Xinglu Zhang,Kristin L. Wolfe,Fengxiang Gao,Christopher Benton,Cheryl P. Andam +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors present some of the initial results of New Hampshire's initiative to transition to whole genome sequencing (WGS) in tracking Salmonella enterica , a bacterial pathogen that is responsible for non-typhoidal foodborne infections and enteric fever.

Influence of Non-canonical DNA Bases on the Genomic Diversity of Tevenvirinae.
TL;DR: A comparative and evolutionary analysis of Tevenvirinae genomes and the genes associated with the synthesis of non-canonical bases has been performed in this article, and the authors conclude that non-canonical bases have a major influence on the divergence of TVe viruses within the same habitats.
Efficient merging of genome profile alignments.
André Hennig,Kay Nieselt +1 more
TL;DR: GPA is implemented in Java, uses progressiveMauve and offers a parallel computation of WGAs, which allows the computation of a WGA where alignments are subsequently merged along a guide tree.

TL;DR: The genomic sequence of six strains representing the five major disease-causing serotypes of Streptococcus agalactiae, the main cause of neonatal infection in humans, was generated and Mathematical extrapolation of the data suggests that the gene reservoir available for inclusion in the S. agalactic pan-genome is vast and that unique genes will continue to be identified even after sequencing hundreds of genomes.
