Nitin Singh, 2020, "Draft Genome Sequences of Klebsiella Species Isolated from the International Space Station", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.JN7MFL, Microbiology Resource Announcements, JPL Open Repository
Isolated across four unique locations aboard the International Space Station (ISS), 10 bacterial strains were compared using a whole-genome sequence (WGS) analysis and phylogenetically identified as Klebsiella. The WGS will aid in genomic datamining the ISS Klebsiella strains wit... |

Jason Wood, 2020, "Draft Genome Sequences of Lactobacillales Isolated from the International Space Station", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.ZBALMP, Microbiology Resource Annoucements, JPL Open Repository
Nineteen strains from the Order Lactobacillales were isolated from the International Space Station and Crew Resupply Vehicle, and whole-genome sequences (WGS) were generated. WGS would permit the characterization of these potential pathogenic bacteria that have been adapting to t... |
