Insertion sequence transposition inactivates CRISPR-Cas immunity

Primers, plasmids, bacterial strains, and growth conditions Primers, plasmids, and strains used in this study are listed in Tables S1–S3, respectively. Escherichia coli strains MG1655, DH10B, MDS42, and their derivates were cultured in LB medium at 37 °C, with shaking at 220 rpm. All the recombinants containing the temperature-sensitive pSC101-derived plasmid were cultured…

Missing columns in meta table from SRA Selector

Unfortunately there is not enforced standard of what metadata must make into the SRA, it is very frustrating actually and makes reproducing any analysis needlessly complicated. You can look at what EBI fields are there, and sometimes they produce more fields than SRA: pip install bio then look at the…

Plastid DNA sequences and oospore characters of some European taxa of Tolypella section Tolypella (Characeae) identify five clusters, including one new cryptic Tolypella taxon from Sardinia, but they do not coincide with current morphological descriptions

1. Introduction Charophytes, extant and fossil members of the order Charales plus the members of the extinct orders Sycidiales and Moellerinales (Schneider et al., 2015) are algae with a complex morphology, which are closely related to modern land plants (Nishiyama et al., 2018). Taxa delineation of charophytes is commonly based on morphological…
