    Abstract Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a plant pathogen that causes crown gall disease on a wide range of host species by transferring and integrating a part of its own DNA (T-DNA) into the plant genome. The genes responsible of the above-mentioned processes are well characterized. However, a large number of the mechanisms involved in exploitation and colonization of the galls (also named plant tumors) remain unknown. Due to recent development of "transposon-sequencing" (Tn-Seq) techniques, a high-throughput screening and identification of the different genes involved in such mechanisms is now possible. In this chapter, we describe the detailed methodology used to construct a transposon library in A. tumefaciens and to conduct a Tn-Seq approach to discover genes involved in plant tumor exploitation and colonization.

    Abstract Agrobacterium tumefaciens colonizes the galls (plant tumors) it causes, and the roots of host and nonhost plants. Transposon‐sequencing (Tn‐Seq) was used to discover A.tumefaciens genes involved in reproductive success (fitness genes) on Solanum lycopersicum and Populus trichocarpa tumors and S.lycopersicum and Zea mays roots. The identified fitness genes represent 3–8% of A. tumefaciens genes and contribute to carbon and nitrogen metabolism, synthesis and repair of DNA, RNA and proteins and envelope‐associated functions. Competition assays between 12 knockout mutants and wild‐type confirmed the involvement of 10 genes (trpB, hisH, metH, cobN, ntrB, trxA, nrdJ, kamA, exoQ, wbbL) in A.tumefaciens fitness under both tumor and root conditions. The remaining two genes (fecA, noxA) were important in tumors only. None of these mutants was nonpathogenic, but four (hisH, trpB, exoQ, ntrB) exhibited impaired virulence. Finally, we used this knowledge to search for chemical and biocontrol treatments that target some of the identified fitness pathways and report reduced tumorigenesis and impaired establishment of A.tumefaciens on tomato roots using tannic acid or Pseudomonas protegens, which affect iron assimilation. This work revealed A.tumefaciens pathways that contribute to its competitive survival in plants and highlights a strategy to identify plant protection approaches against this pathogen.

    Abstract Long-read sequencing (LRS) technologies have provided extremely powerful tools to explore genomes. While in the early years these methods suffered technical limitations, they have recently made significant progress in terms of read length, throughput, and accuracy and bioinformatics tools have strongly improved. Here, we aim to review the current status of LRS technologies, the development of novel methods, and the impact on genomics research. We will explore the most impactful recent findings made possible by these technologies focusing on high-resolution sequencing of genomes and transcriptomes and the direct detection of DNA and RNA modifications. We will also discuss how LRS methods promise a more comprehensive understanding of human genetic variation, transcriptomics, and epigenetics for the coming years.

    Abstract Forty years ago the advent of Sanger sequencing was revolutionary as it allowed complete genome sequences to be deciphered for the first time. A second revolution came when next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies appeared, which made genome sequencing much cheaper and faster. However, NGS methods have several drawbacks and pitfalls, most notably their short reads. Recently, third-generation/long-read methods appeared, which can produce genome assemblies of unprecedented quality. Moreover, these technologies can directly detect epigenetic modifications on native DNA and allow whole-transcript sequencing without the need for assembly. This marks the third revolution in sequencing technology. Here we review and compare the various long-read methods. We discuss their applications and their respective strengths and weaknesses and provide future perspectives.

    Abstract About 10% of bacteria have a multichromosome genome with a primary replicon of bacterial origin, called the chromosome, and other replicons of plasmid origin, the chromids. Studies on multichromosome bacteria revealed potential points of coordination between the replication/segregation of chromids and the progression of the cell cycle. For example, replication of the chromid of Vibrionales (called Chr2) is initiated upon duplication of a sequence carried by the primary chromosome (called Chr1), in such a way that replication of both replicons is completed synchronously. Also, Chr2 uses the Chr1 as a scaffold for its partition in the daughter cells. How many of the features detected so far are required for the proper integration of a secondary chromosome in the cell cycle? How many more features remain to be discovered? We hypothesized that critical features for the integration of the replication/segregation of a given chromid within the cell cycle program would be conserved independently of the species in which the chromid has settled. Hence, we searched for a chromid related to that found in Vibrionales outside of this order. We identified one in Plesiomonas shigelloides, an aquatic and pathogenic enterobacterium that diverged early within the clade of Enterobacterales. Our results suggest that the chromids present in P. shigelloides and Vibrionales derive from a common ancestor. We initiated in silico genomic and proteomic comparative analyses of P. shigelloides, Vibrionales, and Enterobacterales that enabled us to establish a list of features likely involved in the maintenance of the chromid within the host cell cycle.
