Lasso peptides are a new class of ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified
peptides and thus far are only isolated from proteo-and actinobacterial sources. Typically …

We provide here a comparative genome analysis of 31 strains within the genus
Paenibacillus including 11 new genomic sequences of N2-fixing strains. The heterogeneity …

Swarming bacteria are challenged by the need to invade hostile environments. Swarms of
the flagellated bacterium Paenibacillus vortex can collectively transport other …

Whilst most of the microorganisms recognized as exoelectrogens are Gram-negative
bacteria, the electrogenicity of Gram-positive bacteria has not been sufficiently explored. In …

Culture-dependent and culture-independent techniques were applied to investigate the
bacterial communities occurring in 5-6 days-old honey bee larvae (Apis mellifera L.), with …

Bacterial swarming is a type of motility characterized by a rapid and collective migration of
bacteria on surfaces. Most swarming species form densely packed dynamic clusters in the …

In the context of a post-antibiotic era, the phenomenon of microbial allolysis, which is
defined as the partial killing of bacterial population induced by other cells of the same …

Soil salinization is a major and increasing problem adversely impacting plant growth and
crop production. Accordingly, coping with this problem has become a central topic in …

One of the challenges in developing plant‐beneficial bacterial agents for agricultural
application is ensuring that an effective selection and screening procedure is in place. The …

Brevibacillus laterosporus is a globally ubiquitous, spore forming bacterium, strains of which
