Genomic insights into diversity, population structure and selection signatures in Sicilian horse breeds

Sicilian horse breeds represent a valuable genetic resource shaped by environmental and selective processes. This study investigated the genetic diversity and population structure of three Sicilian horse breeds: Purosangue Orientale (68–ORI), Sanfratellano (70–SAN) and Cavallo Si...

Comparative Genome Mining of Jiangella sp. GA3 from Turtle-Ingested Plastic Reveals Conserved Biosynthetic Gene Clusters

Rare actinobacteria are promising sources of specialized metabolites, yet genome mining still prioritizes genomes encoding many biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) rather than clusters that are distant from characterized chemistry. Here, we describe the isolation of a novel Jiangel...
