Self-incompatibility (SI) is a genetic mechanism that allows flowering plants to identify and block fertilization by self-pollen.In the Solanaceae, SI is controlled by a multiallelic S-locus encoding both S-RNases and F-box proteins as female and male determinants, respectively.S-RNase activity is essential for pollen rejection, and a minimum thres

Phage encoded H-NS: a potential achilles heel in the bacterial defence system.
The relationship between phage and their microbial hosts is difficult to elucidate in complex natural ecosystems.Engineered systems performing enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR), offer stable, lower complexity communities for studying phage-host interactions.Here, metagenomic data from an EBPR reactor dominated by Candidatus Accumulibact
