Pantoea agglomerans, a widespread epiphytic bacterium, has evolved into a hypersensitive response and pathogenicity (hrp)-dependent and host-specific gall-forming pathogen by the acquisition of a pathogenicity plasmid containing a type III secretion ...
Emerging pathogens are a major threat to public health, however understanding how pathogens adapt to new niches remains a challenge. New methods are urgently required to provide functional insights into pathogens from the massive genomic data sets no...

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) data present an untapped potential to improve microbial risk assessment (MRA) through increased specificity and redefinition of the hazard. Most of the MRA models do not account for differences in survivability and vi...
Bacterial pathogens secrete numerous effector proteins via six secretion systems, type I to type VI secretion systems, to adapt to new environments or to promote virulence by bacterium-host interactions. Many computational approaches have been used i...
MOTIVATION: Bacterial infections are a major cause of illness worldwide. However, most bacterial strains pose no threat to human health and may even be beneficial. Thus, developing powerful diagnostic bioinformatic tools that differentiate pathogenic...
The ability of multitask learning promulgated its sovereignty in the machine learning field with the diversified application including but not limited to bioinformatics and pattern recognition. Bioinformatics provides a wide range of applications for...
