The members of the homologous homeodomain-leucine zipper (HDZ) family of transcription factors play important roles in the ability of plants to cope with adverse conditions. In this study, we analyzed the genome of the C...

Abstract Background Usually Multiple Amino acids Move In and Out Transporters (UMAMITs), belonging to the MtN21/EamA-like/UMAMIT superfamily, play vital roles in amino acid transport, nodule formation, and nitrogen fixat...

ABSTRACT Background Mycoplasma bovis mastitis is an important disease of dairy cows that causes substantial economic losses. However, its prevalence in different states in the United States (US), including Tennessee, is ...

Abstract Background Genetic analysis of the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) has become essential for breed characterization, population genetics, and taxonomic studies in livestock. Genetic variations in mitochondrial ...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small non-coding RNAs, are key regulators of gene expression at post-transcriptional level and play essential roles in biological processes such as development. MiRNAs silence target mRNAs ...

Abstract In the current study, the probiotic potential of approximately 250 strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from piglet fecal samples were investigated; among them Lactobacillus plantarum strain JDFM LP11,...

Introduction and Aims: Evidence suggests a relationship between oral microbiota and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). However, the roles of specific microbiota in the pathogenesis of CVDs remain underexplored. Methods: Two...

Abstract Background Comparative studies of mitochondrial genomes can assist in determining evolutionary and phylogenetic relationships. In the Ceratocystidaceae fungal family, mitochondrial genomes from only two genera a...

Abstract Background An in-depth analysis was conducted on the mitochondrial genomes of three newly introduced Terebelliformia species (Amaeana sp., Terebellides sp.A and Terebellides sp.B), focusing on their genomic feat...

Abstract Carbapenemase-producing Acinetobacter baumannii (CP-Ab) is a critical priority pathogen. Between October 2019 and September 2020, a multicentre study was conducted at four Ethiopian hospitals: Tikur Anbessa and ...

Abstract Transcriptome sequencing data offer a valuable resource for inferring genetic variants, yet their application in forensic individual identification and kinship analysis remains insufficiently explored. This stud...

Abstract Bacteriophages constitute a major component of the human gut virome, playing very important roles in shaping of the structure and function of the gut microbiota. Moreover, bacteriophages interact with the human ...

We report the first genome sequence of a Colocasia bobone disease-associated virus (CBDaV) derived from bobone-affected taro [Colocasia esculenta L. Schott] from Solomon Islands. The negative-strand RNA genome is 12,193 ...

Abstract Objective Streptococcus shenyangsis is a recently reported member of the genus Streptococcus, rarely detected in the human oral cavity and for which genomic information remains limited. To broaden our understand...

Abstract Potato crops in Bangladesh are significantly threatened by viral diseases, underscoring the need for comprehensive virome profiling to inform sustainable management strategies. In this study, we employed high-th...

Abstract Background Understanding the genetic evolution of HIV-1 Transmitted/Founder (T/F) virus is crucial for developing effective treatment and prevention strategies due to its rapid mutation and recombination rates. ...

Abstract Background Tuberculosis (TB) remains a critical global public health issue, particularly in rapidly urbanizing regions where population density and migration facilitate transmission. While whole-genome sequencin...

Abstract The unambiguous identification of individual chromosomes is fundamental to studying genome organisation and evolution. Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis (Trin.) Tzvel), a perennial tetraploid grass closely related to...

Abstract Studying microbial biodiversity offers enormous potential for improving the valorisation of plant biomass, particularly in conversion processes. Microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi, yeasts and algae, play an...

Abstract Freshwater adaptation from marine ancestors represents a major ecological transition in teleost evolution, yet its genomic basis remains poorly understood. The genus Brachirus is predominantly marine, although a...

Abstract Objective This study aimed to investigate the effect of miRNAs differentially expressed in serum exosomes on endothelial cells after myocardial infarction. Design & methods Specific pathogen-free male Sprague–...

Stellaria Radix, known as Yinchaihu (YCH) in traditional Chinese medicine, is derived from the dried roots of Stellaria dichotoma L. var. lanceolata Bge. Despite its clinical importance in treating pediatric febrile cond...

Abstract Background Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) and porcine circovirus type 3 (PCV3) have emerged as significant pathogens jeopardizing the swine industry in China in recent years, and caused substantial economic lo...

Peanut is an allotetraploid (2n = 2x = 40, AABB) of recent origin. Arachis duranensis and A. ipaënsis, the most probable diploid ancestors of the cultigen, and several other wild diploid species with different genom...
