The genome of S. scabiei has been sequenced and is the largest Streptomyces genome known so far. The genome contains a pathogenicity island containing the genes required for S. scabiei to infect plants, and which can be transferred between different species.
Sarcoptes scabiei (/sɑːrˈkɒptiːz skeɪˈbiːaɪ/ Traditional English pronunciation of Latin) or the itch mite is a parasitic mite found in all parts of the world that burrows into skin and causes scabies. Humans become infested by Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis; [1] other mammals can be
Scabies (/ ˈ s k eɪ b iː z, ˈ s k eɪ b i iː z /; [10] also sometimes known as the seven-year itch) [1] is a contagious human skin infestation by the tiny (0.2–0.45 mm) mite Sarcoptes scabiei, [1] [3] variety hominis. The word is from Latin: scabere, lit. 'to scratch'. [11] The most common symptoms are severe itchiness and a pimple-like ...
"Phylogenetic analysis of Streptomyces spp. isolated from potato scab lesions in Korea on the basis of 16S rRNA gene and 16S-23S rDNA internally transcribed spacer sequences". International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology. 54 (1): 203–209. doi: 10.1099/ijs.0.02624-0. ISSN 1466-5026. PMID 14742481.
The genome sequence of S. scabiei, a member of the genus with the ability to cause potato scab disease, has been determined at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute. At 10.1 Mbp long and encoding 9,107 provisional genes, it is the largest known Streptomyces genome sequenced, probably due to the large pathogenicity island. [22] [23]
According to Howard Lee, the chief creative officer of U.S. Networks and president of Discovery Networks, Puppy Bowl lovers have a "number one question" about the show, now in its 21st year.
The list of organisms by chromosome count describes ploidy or numbers of chromosomes in the cells of various plants, animals, protists, and other living organisms.This number, along with the visual appearance of the chromosome, is known as the karyotype, [1] [2] [3] and can be found by looking at the chromosomes through a microscope.
