Swine and poultry pathogens: The complete genome sequences of two strains of My...
Vasconcelos, Ana Tereza; Ferreira, Henrique Bunselmeyer; Bizarro, Cristiano Valim; Bonatto, Sandro L.; Carvalho, Marcos O.; Pinto, Paulo MarcosThis work reports the results of analyses of three complete mycoplasma genomes, a pathogenic (7448) and a nonpathogenic (J) strain of the swine pathogen Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and a strain of the avian pathogen Mycoplasma synoviae; the genome sizes of the three strains were 920,079 bp, 897,405 bp, and 799,476 bp, respectively. These genomes were compared with other sequenced mycoplasma genomes reported in the...
The Genome of Anopheles darlingi, the main neotropical malaria vector
Marinotti, Osvaldo; Cerqueira, Gustavo C.; Almeida, Luiz G.P.; Ferro, Maria Inês Tiraboschi; Loreto, Elgion Lúcio da Silva; Zaha, ArnaldoAnopheles darlingi is the principal neotropical malaria vector, responsible for more than a million cases of malaria per year on the American continent. Anopheles darlingi diverged from the African and Asian malaria vectors ∼100 million years ago (mya) and successfully adapted to the New World environment. Here we present an annotated reference A. darlingi genome, sequenced from a wild population of males and f...
The complete genome sequence of Chromobacterium violaceum reveals remarkable an...
Vasconcelos, Ana Tereza; De-Almeida, Darcy Fontoura; Hungría, Mariangela; Guimarães, Cláudia Teixeira; Antônio, Regina VasconcellosChromobacterium violaceum is one of millions of species of free-living microorganisms that populate the soil and water in the extant areas of tropical biodiversity around the world. Its complete genome sequence reveals (i) extensive alternative pathways for energy generation, (ii) ≈500 ORFs for transport-related proteins, (iii) complex and extensive systems for stress adaptation and motility, and (iv) wide-spre...
Ploidy determination in the pathogenic fungus Sporothrix spp.
Ferreira, Beatriz H.; Ramírez-Prado, Jorge H.; Neves, Gabriela W. P.; Torrado, Egídio; Sampaio, Paula; Felipe, Maria Sueli S.; Vasconcelos, Ana TerezaThe pathogenic clade of the Sporothrix genus comprises the etiological agents of sporotrichosis, a worldwide emergent disease. Despite the growing understanding of their successful pathogen traits, there is little information on genome sizes and ploidy within the genus. Therefore, in this work, we evaluated the ploidy of four species of the Sporothrix genus, specifically Sporothrix brasiliensis, Sporothrix sche...
