Can anyone tell me if staph aureus and rhodobacter are diploid or haploid?

I believe all bacteria are haploid in terms of allele content.
However, in rich medium, some bacteria are replicating very rapidly, and so the chromosome will appear to be at multiple copies near the origin of replication. I think this can be seen in sequencing depth plots, but can't remember where I saw it (unless it was in original Church sequencing-by-ligation paper) -
Yeah, I don't see why bacteria wouldn't be haploid.
But that doesn't mean that every sample given to you is clonal.Comment

Yes, theoretically, one chromosome copy per cell for (most) bacteria. But, as pointed out above, it doesn't always work that way.Comment

If you sequence with a large cover and a huge deepth, you'll be able to see different clones.
That does not mean that your bacteria is polyploid.To infinity ... and behond !!!Comment

Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.
There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...07-08-2026, 05:17 AM
