New Research Publication from ARI!
Discovery of a New Drug-Resistant Bacterium from Silkworms Using Modern Genome-Based Naming

SeqCode recognizes strains and their value for experimental work. However, type material in #SeqCode consists of genome sequence that unambiguously defines a species. The request suggests using strains as paratypes of genomic type material. One of the suggested paratypes, the type strain Es2 of Methanimicrococcus stummii, is shown in the photos 🤓

Cheers to a great kick off for #ISME19 in #capetown.
Excited for the plenary tomorrow morning followed by poster sessions, talks, and afternoon round tables. Hard to choose between the #seqcode RT and the #darkoxygen RT.
Where will you be?

Two different names proposed for Asgard archaea phylum, Promethearchaeota (#ICNP) and Asgardarchaeota (#SeqCode). It shows how different rules govern prokaryotic #taxonomy.

The type species Asgardarchaeum abyssi is the anchor for the phylum Asgardarchaeota, which are the closest relatives of #eukaryotes. Since no pure culture is available now, the species and thus the phylum are described under the #SeqCode initiative.

With this, we built a custom db AND improved taxonomic resolution within comm profiles. Some of them were #unnamed and #novel lineages, some of which we proposed new names with @m_chuvochina and submitted to #SeqCode!
Further , we separated them into brackish/marine ecotypes!

Screening 54 water samples (short & long read #ONT sequencing) across brackish to marine sites, @aprabhu90
- recovered nearly 2,500 genomes
- proposed new taxon names (#SeqCode)
- created a custom DB for genome-based community profiling (with improved taxonomic resolution!)

A collaborative effort to preserve nomenclatural & taxonomic congruence:
"Description of Asgardarchaeum abyssi gen. nov. spec. nov., a novel species within the class Asgardarchaeia and phylum #Asgardarchaeota in accordance with the #SeqCode" led by @DanielTamarit & @Ettema_lab
Presenting our taxonomic reclassification of the genus Methanobrevibacter into 8+1 genera based on phylogenomics data at #vaam. It's already done based on #seqcode, but now we are aiming to validly publish our genera under ICNP rules.

Microbe of the Year 2024 at #vaam conference is Ca. Electronema sp. Discovery based on "failed" experiment showed how bacteria transfer electrons via cm long filaments in sediments 🤓. The species described with #seqcode based on genome.

Big thanks to #SeqCode curators @m_chuvochina, @_lrr_ , and @marike_palmer for all the hard work they did! SeqCode demonstrates why species descriptions based on axenic cultures have become obsolete.

Even if you have an isolate, it is not always possible to validly publish it as a new species, as national regulations might prohibit free access to the cultures. #SeqCode provides a solution by assigning species names without requiring culture deposition.

The developmpent of #seqcode requires participation. Archaea and bacteria cannot name themselves 😄

A major hurdle to publishing a new prokaryotic #species is a fact that one need to deposit its culture to two collections. #seqcode is a way to overcome the problem using genome sequence as a type material and not the culture.

Ideally, you also validate taxonomic names under the #SeqCode
- using the SeqCode Registry, a registration web portal through which names and nomenclatural types are registered, validated and linked to metadata. More info: https://t.co/8Z1uWoa3B0
