Happy Tanabata! We have just released a new complete genome announcement article in Microbiology Resource Announcements.（筆頭著者：守研 M2 嘉山） The complete genome of a new strain of the marine bacterial genus Thalassospira, which was isolated from the coast of Nojima, was revealed using the hybrid assembly of short-read and long-read sequencing data (thanks to the Bioengineering Read more about 2022.07.07.

Happy New Year 2022! Our new research article by Mori & Kanaly has just been published in Microbiology Spectrum. We discovered a unique genomic structure in an azaarene-degrading soil bacterium Cupriavidus necator KK10, of which chromosome and chromid (secondary chromosome) were naturally fused across the rRNA operons and resulted in the creation of a massive Read more about 2022.01.05.
