We report the sequence and characterization of the genomes of 21 isolates of Rhodococcus. Next generation sequencing technology was used to generate genome sequences. The reads for each genome were de novo assembled. The contigs were re-ordered, using the genome sequence of A44a as a reference. The program, Prokka, was...

Plethodontid salamanders are diverse and widely distributed taxa and play critical roles in ecosystem processes. Due to salamander use of structurally complex habitats, and because only a portion of a population is available for sampling, evaluation of sampling designs and estimators is critical to provide strong inference about Plethodontid ecology...

Carbonate communities:The activity of anaerobic methane oxidizing microbes facilitates
precipitation of vast quantities of authigenic carbonate at methane seeps. Here we demonstrate
the significant role of carbonate rocks in promoting diversity by providing unique habitat
and food resources for macrofaunal assemblages at seeps on the Costa Rica margin
(400–1850 m)....

Marine diseases are becoming more frequent, and tools for identifying pathogens and disease
reservoirs are needed to help prevent and mitigate epizootics. Meta-transcriptomics
provides insights into disease etiology by cataloguing and comparing sequences from suspected
pathogens. This method is a powerful approach to simultaneously evaluate both the
viral and bacterial...

Sea star wasting disease (SSWD) first appeared in Oregon in April 2014, and by June had spread to most of the coast. Although delayed compared to areas to the north and south, SSWD was initially most intense in north and central Oregon and spread southward. Up to 90% of individuals...

OPEN ACCESS
Phytophthora infestans, the causal agent of late blight disease, has been reported in North America since the mid-nineteenth century. In the United States the lack of or very limited sexual reproduction has resulted in largely clonal populations of P. infestans. In 2010 and 2011, but not in 2012 or 2013,...

Background
In the weeks following the first imported case of Ebola in the U. S. on September 29, 2014, coverage of the very limited outbreak dominated the news media, in a manner quite disproportionate to the actual threat to national public health; by the end of October, 2014, there were...
