Use of DNA barcoding in the assignment of commercially valuable fish species from Romania
2017
DNA barcoding is a molecular technique frequently used either for biodiversity monitoring and fish conservation or in the identification of the species of origin for raw and processed food from restaurants or fish markets. The most important aspect of this technique is that it works for all stages of life and can be used to distinguish between closely related taxa. Also, the technique has been used to unmask attempts of frauds in fish markets where more desirable and expensive fish are sometimes substituted with lower valued species. Our study aims to test the utility of the COI barcoding gene in the correct identification of several economically and ecologically valuable fish species, and …

The complete plastid genome of the middle Asian endemic of Stipa lipskyi (Poaceae)
2016
AbstractThe structure of the Stipa lipskyi (GenBank accession no. KT692644) plastid genome is similar to that of closely related Poaceae species: it has a total length of 137 755 bp, the base composition of the plastome is the following: A (30.7%), C (19.3%), G (19.4%) and T (30.5%). The S. lipskyi plastid genome contains 71 genes, excluding second IR region. A complete plastome sequence of S. lipskyi will help the development of primers for examining phylogeny and hybridization events in this taxonomically difficult genus.

Molecular Characterization of Coxsackievirus B5 Isolates from Sewage, Italy 2016–2017
2019
Hereby, the partial Viral Protein 1 sequences of Coxsackievirus B5 (CV-B5) from sewage samples, collected in Italy from 2016 to 2017, were compared with those available in GenBank from clinical samples. Phylogenetic analysis highlighted: (I) the predominant circulation of CV-B5 genogroup B in Italy, and (II) the presence of two new sub-genogroups.
Draft genome of Leisingera aquaemixtae CECT 8399T, a member of the Roseobacter clade isolated from a junction of fresh and ocean water in Jeju Island…
2016
We report the draft genome sequence and annotation of Leisingera aquaemixtae CECT 8399T (DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank accession number CYSR00000000) which comprises 4,614,060 bp, 4313 protein coding genes, 54 tRNA coding genes and 7 rRNA coding genes. General findings of the annotated genome, such as pigment indigoidine operon, phenylacetate oxidation genes or predictable number of replicons, are commented in comparison to other Leisingera species. Average Nucleotide Identity between available genomes of type strains of species of Leisingera and Phaeobacter genera has been calculated to evaluate its current classification. Keywords: Rhodobacteraceae, Phaeobacter, Ectoine, Indigoidine, Phenylacetate de…
First Report of Tomato torrado virus Infecting Tomato in Italy.
2010
In 2009 and 2010, approximately 2% of plants had disease symptoms, including initial leaflet chlorosis that later developed into necrotic spots and general necroses along the leaflet. Fruit production on affected plants was substantially reduced and necroses were also present. Total RNA was extracted from five symptomatic plant samples using the RNeasy Plant Mini Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) and analyzed by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR with specific primer pair: TR2F (5′ GAAGGACGAAGAGCGACTG 3′), and TR2R (5′ AAGGTAGGTATGCGTTTGC 3′) (1). The primers amplified a 575-bp fragment within the coat protein Vp23 of Tomato torrado virus (ToTV). No RT-PCR products were observed when water or asym…
Cloning of sponge heat shock proteins: evolutionary relationships between the major kingdoms
2009
In the present study we have cloned from sponges (Porifera) those molecules which are involved in the protection of organisms against physiological and stress conditions; the inducible heat shock protein Mr 70,000, hsp70, from the marine sponge Geodia cydonium, its interacting hsp40, a DnaJ-like protein (from G. cydonium) and the constitutively expressed counterpart the glucose-regulated protein Mr 78,000, GRP78 from Suberites domuncula. Alignments of the sequences revealed that the deduced aa sequences of all sponge hsp's share high homology to other metazoan sequences, and are separated from related sequences from plants and fungi (hsp70, GRP78, DnaJ) as well as Bacteria (DnaK, the hsp70 …
gcType : a high-quality type strain genome database for microbial phylogenetic and functional research
2020
Abstract Taxonomic and functional research of microorganisms has increasingly relied upon genome-based data and methods. As the depository of the Global Catalogue of Microorganisms (GCM) 10K prokaryotic type strain sequencing project, Global Catalogue of Type Strain (gcType) has published 1049 type strain genomes sequenced by the GCM 10K project which are preserved in global culture collections with a valid published status. Additionally, the information provided through gcType includes >12 000 publicly available type strain genome sequences from GenBank incorporated using quality control criteria and standard data annotation pipelines to form a high-quality reference database.
