Complete mitochondrial and rDNA complex sequences of important vector species of Biomphalaria, obligatory hosts of the human-infecting blood fluke, Schistosoma mansoni

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Using high throughput Illumina sequencing technology, we determined complete sequences for the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) and nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) complex for three African freshwater snail taxa within the genus Biomphalaria, B. pfeifferi,

Protein Coding Low‐Copy rpb2 and ef1‐α Regions Are Viable Fungal Metabarcoding DNA Markers Which Can Supplement ITS for Better Accuracy

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
The study uses prepared mock communities of three unrelated basidiomycete lineages, each containing carefully selected closely related species. Performance of the generally used fungal barcoding region ITS nrDNA is compared with two low‐copy protein coding regions (rpb2 and tef1a).

A Multiplex-PCR approach to identification of the Brazilian intermediate hosts of Schistosoma mansoni

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2002
Due to difficulties concerning morphological identification of planorbid snails of the genus Biomphalaria, and given a high variation of characters and in the organs with muscular tissue, we designed specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers for ...

Homortomyces gen. nov., a new dothidealean pycnidial fungus from the Cradle of Humankind

open access: yesIMA Fungus, 2012
Homortomyces is introduced as a new coelomycetous genus associated with leaf spots on Combretum erythrophyllum trees growing near and around the Sterkfontein caves, Maropeng, South Africa. Based on its transversely septate, brown conidia, the presence of

A Molecular identification and Anticandidal Activity Assessment of Desmodesmus subspicatus Against Multidrug-Resistant Candida Isolates from Intensive Care Units

open access: yesZanco Journal of Pure and Applied Sciences
Desmodesmus exhibits significant morphological diversity, leading to multiple synonyms being assigned to this species based solely on optical microscopic morphology. Prior studies have demonstrated that Candida spp.

Candida albicans and C. tropicalis Isolates from the Expired Breathes of Captive Dolphins and Their Environments in an Aquarium

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine International, 2010
Genotypes of Candida spp. isolated from exhalation of 20 dolphins, 11 water samples from captive pools, and 24 oral cavities of staff members in an aquarium using a combination of multiple drug resistance 1 gene (MDR1) and the internal transcribed spacer

Comparison of Erysiphe cichoracearum and E. cruciferarum and a Survey of 360 Arabidopsis thaliana Accessions for Resistance to These Two Powdery Mildew Pathogens

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1999
In previous work, UEA1 and UCSC1, two geographically distinct, powdery mildew isolates, were recognized for their ability to infect Arabidopsis thaliana. We have clarified the identity of these isolates by determining their host ranges, reexamining their
