The efficiency of Nextera XT tagmentation depends on G and C bases in the binding motif leading to uneven coverage in bacterial species with low and neutral GC-content

Bo Segerman et al.

Summary: This study provides an in-depth analysis of the coverage bias issue associated with Nextera XT, finding that it is mainly related to low GC-content species and not present when using Nextera Flex/DNA Prep.

EFSA statement on the requirements for whole genome sequence analysis of microorganisms intentionally used in the food chain

Collab Group Only

Summary: Microorganisms, including genetically modified ones, may need pre-market authorization for placement in the European market, with a focus on risk assessment to ensure safety and efficacy in the food chain. Whole genome sequence analysis is used for taxonomic identification and characterization of functional traits, providing crucial information for risk assessment in regulated products.

Choice of library preparation affects sequence quality, genome assembly, and precise in silico prediction of virulence genes in shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli

Julie Haendiges et al.

Summary: This study compared the performance of sequencing using different library preparation chemistries (Nextera XT and Nextera DNA Prep), and found that Nextera DNA Prep outperformed in sequence quality, assembly quality, and uniformity of genome coverage. Comprehensive detection of virulence genes is essential for assessing virulence potential.
