Place of nature in economic development

In the presence of externalities involving nature's services, individuals and communities overexploit natural capital. In other words ecological services are subsidized. This working paper proposes a mathematical model that factors in values of social and environmental costs/benefits. Nature consists of degradable resources: resource stocks are self-regenerative, but suffer from depletion or deterioration when they are over-used. Extreme poverty is frequently associated with a degraded environment. Studies confirm that the world's poorest people live in especially fragile natural environments. When policies are evaluated a social cost-benefit analysis must be included

Dry rot causing species of fusarium prevalent in Republic of Tatarstan

Fusarium species are the most frequently fungal pathogens of potato worldwide. In this study we isolated Fusarium species causing dry rot in potatoes that were grown in Republic of Tatarstan in 2014. Isolated species were identified as Fusarium oxysporum (4 strains), Fusarium solani (1), Fusarium avenaceum (1), Fusarium tricinctum (1), Fusarium sambucinum (1) and Fusarium redolens(1) by sequencing the ITS regions of rRNA. Variable degrees of pathogenicity were observed with the collected Fusarium isolates after artificial inoculation of healthy potato tubers. Fusarium oxysporum strains (MG2, NK3, MG1) were the most aggressive and virulent followed by Fusariumsolani NZ1, Fusarium tricinctum SA1and Fusarium sambucinum NK2, Fusarium avenaceum NK1 were the least pathogenic. The results of the identification of prevalent pathogenic Fusarium isolates from potato tubers can contribute to development of regional strategies for controlling the disease development in this area

Draft genome sequence data of Lysinibacillus fusiformis strain GM, isolated from potato phyllosphere as a potential probiotic

© 2018 The Authors Here we present the morphological and physiological properties of isolated Lysinibacillus fusiformis strain GM, its draft genome sequence as well as annotation and analysis of its genome. Initial analysis of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, 16S rRNA gene analysis and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization revealed that the strain belongs to the species Lysinibacillus fusiformis. The 4,678,122 bp draft genome consist of 17 scaffolds encoding 4588 proteins and 137 RNAs. Annotation of the genome sequence revealed cellulase and protease encoding genes, genes of adhesion proteins and putative genes responsible for the biosynthesis of antimicrobial metabolites. The Whole Genome Shotgun project has been deposited at DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank under the accession number NTMQ00000000.1 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NZ_NTMQ00000000.1)

Data on the genome analysis of the probiotic strain Bacillus subtilis GM5

© 2019 The Authors In the present study, we report data on the draft genome sequence of a lipopeptide producing rhizospheric Bacillus subtilis GM5 isolate. The genome consists of 4,271,280 bp with a GC-pair content of 43.3%. A total of 4518 genes including 75 tRNA genes, 3 operons coding for rRNA genes and 56 pseudogenes were annotated. Gene clusters responsible for the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites were validated. Six of the thirty-three clusters identified in the genome code for antimicrobial non-ribosomal peptides synthesis. The Whole Genome Shotgun project of B. subtilis GM5 has been deposited in the NCBI database under the accession number NZ_NKJH00000000 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NZ_NKJH00000000.1)

Supplementation of Bacillus subtilis GM5 enhances broiler body weight gain and modulates cecal microbiota

We investigated the effect of the strain Bacillus subtilis GM5 on growth, feed conversion, and the composition of cecum microbiota in broiler chickens. Half of which received a control diet, while the other half was fed a diet supplemented with GM5 spores. Cecal contents on days 1, 10, and 42 were subjected to metataxonomic analysis. Principal Component Analysis showed that the control and probiotic groups formed three separate clusters, indicating changes, which occurred gradually in microbial communities. On day 1, Firmicutes (53.87–57.61%) and Proteobacteria (43.77–38.93%) were prevalent in both groups, whereas samples of days 10 and 42 were predominantly occupied by Firmicutes (54.55–81.79%) and Bacteroidetes (26.94–30.45%). In the group of chickens treated with probiotic, the average daily gain in body weight was higher, while feed conversion decreased by 1.44%. A surge in the presence of beneficial bacteria of the Ruminococcaceae family was observed. The introduction of the probiotic led to an elevated Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio, which positively correlated with chickens’ bodyweight (Spearman ρ = 1.0, P < 0.05). Supplementing broiler feed with B. subtilis GM5 spores leads to improved feed intake and digestibility, which is paramount in reducing the cost of the final product. Thus, the probiotic strain GM5 modulates the cecal microbiota of broiler chickens and increases microbial diversity, which is well exhibited on the 42nd day
