MinION2FixID: fast and reliable legume root nodule bacteria identification using nanopore sequencing technology
Rhizobia are bacterial symbionts associated with legumes that are of paramount importance for the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen in the soil. The success of this process (and ultimately the performance of the plant) depends on the type of root nodule bacteria, which should be adequate to each plant species. The ...

Frequentist estimation of the evolutionary history of sequences with substitutions and indels
High throughput sequencing technologies have permitted a wide range of scientists to observe an astonishing molecular diversity across all domains of life. Since all observed molecular sequences area result of a long evolutionary history, most informative inferences can be made only when analysing genomic sequences ...

XhortOMICs: Diagnostic and epidemiological tools for the Xanthomonas hortorum species-level clade based on OMICs technologies
Despite its recent re-emergence and increased prevalence in many countries, the research on Xanthomonas hortorum species-level clade members has been very limited until now. It is thus important to have an increased knowledge thereof to be able to react to its increasing occurrence. Therefore, the overall aim of the ...

Effect of cryopreservation on genome mutation rate - examples of grapevine
Grapevine genetic resources are maintained in field collections being challenged by repeating biotic and abiotic stresses. Plant adapt to stress by increased mutation rates. Hence, long-term field collections may not be optimal to maintain original cultivars (and clones in grapevine). This project will quantify ...
