To prevent this problem and avoid the use of harmful chemical fungicides, safer and greener alternatives have been sought. One of these alternatives is the use of plant-growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB). In this study, we evaluated in vitro four well-known PGPB strains (Pseudomonas fluorescens UM270, Bacillus toyonensis COPE52, Bacillus sp. E25, and Bacillus thuringiensis CR71) for their biocontrol potential against nineteen postharvest fungal pathogens. In vivo assays were also performed, and bacterial cells were inoculated on harvested strawberries and grapes with the pathogens Botrytis cinerea, Alternaria alternata, and Fusarium brachygibbosum to evaluate loss of firmness and disease incidence. Our results show that the four strains antagonized fungi in direct and indirect confrontation assays. Stronger antagonism was observed by the action of diffusible metabolites (DMs) compared to volatile organic compound (VOC) activity. All PGPB significantly improved the fruit firmness and reduced disease incidence caused by the fungal pathogens tested. However, strain UM270 showed excellent biocontrol activity, reducing the disease incidence of Fusarium brachygibbosum, Botrytis cinerea, and Alternaria alternata on strawberry fruits by 60%, 55%, and 65%, respectively. Diffusible antifungals and VOCs such as 2,4-diacetyl phloroglucinol, siderophores, auxins, fengycins, and N, N-dimethyl-hexadecyl amine, among others, might be responsible for the beneficial activities observed. These results suggest excellent biocontrol activities to inhibit postharvest pathogenic fungi and improve harvested fruit quality.","PeriodicalId":43788,"journal":{"name":"Microbiology Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135580007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study represents one of the few examples where changes in the glutathione concentration were tracked over the entire growth cycle of an alga. We found significant differences in the glutathione concentration depending on the growth stage. During the early lag growth phase, D. salina had relatively low levels of glutathione (190–280 µmol/1012 cell), which gradually increased as it entered the log phase (280–500 µmol/1012 cell) but then decreased as it entered the stationary phase (320–370 µmol/1012 cell). We also observed that the ratio between the reduced form of glutathione (GSH) and the oxidized form (GSSG) decreased with time, probably as a result of senescence or a lack of nutrients.","PeriodicalId":43788,"journal":{"name":"Microbiology Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135863459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The characterization and biodiversity of fungal endophytes of the Petiveria alliacea plant and their antimicrobial production potential are of great interest as they are known for their antimicrobial and anticancer properties. In this study, we investigated the endophytic fungal microbiome associated with P. alliacea, and the endophytic fungal isolates were classified into 30 morphotypes based on their cultural and morphological characteristics. Ethyl acetate extract of fungal endophytes was obtained by liquid–liquid partitioning of culture broth followed by evaporation. The crude extract dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide was screened for antimicrobial activity against three bacterial strains (Escherichia coli ATTC 25902, Staphylococcus aureus ATTC 14775, Bacillus subtilis NRRL 5109) and two fungal strains (Candida albicans ATTC 10231 and Aspergillus fumigatus NRRL 5109). Among the crude extracts from endophytes isolated from leaves, 65% of them showed antimicrobial activity against the bacteria tested. Similarly, 71 and 88% of the fungal crude extracts from endophytes isolated from root and stem, respectively, showed inhibitory activities against at least one of the bacterial strains tested. Crude extracts (at a concentration of 10 mg/mL) from ten of the fungal isolates have shown a zone of inhibition of more than 12 mm against both Gram-positive and negative bacteria tested. Sequenced data from isolates showing strong inhibitory activity revealed that Fusarium solani, F. proliferatum, and Fusarium oxysporium are the major endophytes responsible for bioactive potential. These results indicate that Petiveria alliacea harbors fungal endophytes capable of producing antimicrobial metabolites. Future studies need to focus on testing against drug-resistant bacteria (ESKAPE group) and other pathogenic bacteria and fungi.","PeriodicalId":43788,"journal":{"name":"Microbiology Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135107475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been proven to play key roles in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. However, whether lncRNAs are involved in meningitis triggered by G. parasuis has not been investigated. In this study, we performed an integrative analysis of lncRNAs expression profiles in the porcine brain infected with G. parasuis using RNA-seq. The results showed that lncRNA expressions in G. parasuis-induced meningitis were modified, and a total of 306 lncRNAs exhibited significant differential expression, in which 176 lncRNAs were up-regulated and 130 lncRNAs were down-regulated. KEGG enrichment analysis demonstrated that the differentially expressed target mRNAs of affected lncRNAs in G. parasuis-infected porcine brain were mainly involved in the cell adhesion molecules (CAMs), Jak-STAT signaling pathway, PI3k-Akt signaling pathway, and TNF signaling pathway. The expression relationship between the most affected differential lncRNAs and their differential target mRNAs was visualized by a co-expression network. A protein-protein interaction network consisting of 12 differential targets was constructed using STRING analysis. In addition, differential expressions of important lncRNAs were validated by qRT-PCR. lncRNA ALDBSSCT0000007362, ALDBSSCT0000001959, ALDBSSCT0000005529, MSTRG.2939.1, and MSTRG.32374.1 showed the same expression pattern with the lncRNA sequencing data. Our results demonstrated that G. parasuis could modify the lncRNA expression profiles in the porcine brain. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report revealing the integrative analysis of lncRNA expression profiles in G. parasuis-induced meningitis, which could enhance important information to understand the inflammatory functions of lncRNAs involved in swine meningitis, and also provide a foundation for finding out novel strategies to prevent and treat meningitis in piglets triggered by G. parasuis.","PeriodicalId":43788,"journal":{"name":"Microbiology Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135207680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The preliminary screening test was performed on the guaiacol plate, where a maroon brown zone formed after laccase oxidation. A few pure mycelial discs of Ganoderma species were transferred into submerged fermentation nutrient broth. The nutrient medium of submerged fermentation at 20 g of glucose revealed the highest laccase activities (2300 U/L) than other carbon sources. The interesting results also shown by inorganic NaNO3 in the production of maximum laccase (7800 ± 1.1 U/L). The organic nitrogen inducer, namely yeast extract, exhibited 5834 U/L laccase activity and a potential source of laccase secretion. The results concluded that C and N inducers enhanced the laccase production. This production process is eco-friendly and effective in the removal of dye from water. Laccase from the cultural broth was partially purified by SDS-PAGE for molecular weight determination, while Native-PAGE confirmed the laccase band after staining with guaiacol. The Km and Vmax values of Lacc134 were 1.658 mm and 2.452 mM min−1, respectively. The Lacc134 of this study effectively removed the Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR) dye (extensively used in textile industries and wastewater). For dye removal capacity, 2.0 mg, 4.0 mg, 5.0 mg, and 6.0 mg were used, from which 6.0 mg was most effective in removal (85% and 88%) dye concentration in 1st and 2nd h interval treatment, respectively.

The CD is of particular concern due to its high recurrence rates and the potential for serious outcomes, including life-threatening conditions such as pseudomembranous colitis, septic shock, and all associated conditions. Since this infection is a disease associated with other health conditions, a general vision of the problems is necessary which aims to obtain a general overview of the manifestations that generally correlate with care. Clinical reasoning following the disease-clustering method is able to produce a categorization process by grouping the possible correlations of the various conditions or factors underlying diseases on the basis of certain similarities or common models. The clustering process is performed using data analysis techniques which, by statically correlating each other, give an exact dimension of all the information related to a particular disease. In the case of CD, reasoning based on disease clustering has better clarified the practices, appropriateness in infection control, judicious use of antibiotics, and research into therapeutic and preventive strategies. This review, taking advantage of the clustering strategy, aimed to analyze the contingent conditions of the infection under examination, to reduce the incidence and impact of CD, having as its mission the improvement of the results deriving from the contrast of all those correlated pathological conditions to healthcare for the improvement of public health.","PeriodicalId":43788,"journal":{"name":"Microbiology Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135396591","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
