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,...

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 ...

Bacillus sp. MEP218, a soil bacterium with high potential as a source of bioactive molecules, produces mostly C16–C17 fengycin and other cyclic lipopeptides (CLP) when growing under previously optimized culture conditi...

ABSTRACT The discovery of novel bioactive compounds has significant implications for diverse biotechnological applications. However, microbial genomes remain largely underexplored regarding their potential to produce sec...

Abstract This unit describes how to use BWA and the Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK) to map genome sequencing data to a reference and produce high‐quality variant calls that can be used in downstream analyses. The comple...

UNLABELLED: A typical prokaryote population sequencing study can now consist of hundreds or thousands of isolates. Interrogating these datasets can provide detailed insights into the genetic structure of prokaryotic geno...

The genome of the Antarctic bacterium Pseudomonas extremaustralis was analyzed searching for genes involved in environmental adaptability focusing on anaerobic metabolism, osmoregulation, cold adaptation, exopolysacchari...

The amnion is a specialized tissue in contact with the amniotic fluid, which is in a constantly changing state. To investigate the importance of epigenetic events in this tissue in the physiology and pathophysiology of p...

Abstract Background The Na⁺/H⁺ antiporter (NHX) family plays a crucial role in regulating intracellular Na and H homeostasis in plants. This study conducted a genome-wide analysis and expression assessment of peanut ...

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 Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) thrives in subtropical and tropical areas but is vulnerable to winter cold stress. The myeloblastosis (MYB) transcription factor family plays an important role in plant biolo...

Recent studies have demonstrated a high genomic plasticity in Acinetobacter baumannii, which may explain its high capacity to acquire multiple antibiotic resistance determinants and to survive in the hospital environment...

Abstract Background Antenatal hydronephrosis (AHN) is a common urological abnormality identified during prenatal ultrasound examination, with heterogeneous underlying causes. This study aimed to investigate the genetic e...

IntroductionLow temperatures cause flower prematurely of tobacco sensitive variety, severely impacting its yield and quality. MethodsTo uncover the molecular mechanisms underlying cold-induced early flowering in tobacco,...

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...

Genome-wide association (GWA) studies based on GBLUP models are a common practice in animal breeding. However, effect sizes of GWA tests are small, requiring larger sample sizes to enhance power of detection of rare vari...

ObjectiveTo perform molecular typing and traceability analysis on samples from a food poisoning incident caused by Staphylococcus aureus at a school in Boluo County， Huizhou City， and to provide guidance for future m...

Recent improvements in microbiology and molecular epidemiology were largely stimulated by whole- genome sequencing (WGS), which provides an unprecedented resolution in discriminating highly related genetic backgrounds. W...

ObjectiveTo understand the genetic diversity and antimicrobial resistance characteristics of Salmonella enterica serovar enteritidis （SE） isolated from foodborne disease surveillance in Sichuan Province from 2020 to ...

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 ...

Abstract Background DNA methylation analysis might identify prognostic CpG sites in CHOP‐treated dogs with multicentric high‐grade B‐cell lymphoma (MHGL) with heterogenous prognosis. Objective To identify prognosti...
