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.

Clustering of Pan- and Core-genome of Lactobacillus provides Novel Evolutionary Insights for Differentiation.
TL;DR: Core-genome trees are useful to detect evolutionary relationships in lactobacilli and might be useful in taxonomic analyses, and detailed analyses of the core-genomes showed that the functional class “genetic information processing” is conserved in the cores but that “signaling and cellular processes’ is not.
Three near-complete genome assemblies reveal substantial centromere dynamics from diploid to tetraploid in Brachypodium genus

TL;DR: Three near-complete genome assemblies of Brachypodium species reveal substantial centromere dynamics, including sequence, structural, and epigenetic variations, and centromere homogenization, driven by retrotransposon invasions and polyploidy.

TL;DR: MS-based, bottom-up proteotyping was observed and confirmed to attain the level of resolution necessary for differentiating and identifying the most-closely related bacterial species, as demonstrated by analyses of species of the Streptococcus Mitis Group.

TL;DR: A majority of the bacterial sequences corresponded to uncultivated species and novel microorganisms, and significant intersubject variability and differences between stool and mucosa community composition were discovered.

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.
