Effects of increasing soil moisture on Antarctic desert microbial ecosystems

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, August 2024.
Abstract Overgeneralization and a lack of baseline data for microorganisms in high‐latitude environments have restricted the understanding of the microbial response to climate change, which is needed to establish Antarctic conservation frameworks. To bridge this gap, we examined over 17,000 sequence variants of bacteria and microeukarya across the ...

Predicting airborne ascospores of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum through machine learning and statistical methods

Plant Pathology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 1586-1601, August 2024.
Across all statistical and machine learning models, the greatest predictor of ascospores released on a given day was the number of ascospores released on the previous day. Abstract A main biological constraint of dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) production in Canada is white mould, caused by the fungal pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.

Identification of allergens from Aspergillus fumigatus—Potential association with lung damage in asthma

Allergy, Volume 79, Issue 5, Page 1208-1218, May 2024.
Immunoprecipitation combined with mass spectrometry was used to identify novel allergens from Aspergillus fumigatus. From 13 recombinantly expressed proteins, seven were approved by the WHO/IUIS. Three of them plus the known Asp f 3 were able to predict bronchiectasis in asthmatics with 76% accuracy in a linear discriminant analysis.Abbreviations: Asp ...

Heterogeneity of sensitization profiles and clinical phenotypes among patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis in Southern European countries—The @IT.2020 multicenter study

Allergy, Volume 79, Issue 4, Page 908-923, April 2024.
Within the @IT.2020 multicenter observational study, pediatric and adult patients suffering from seasonal allergic rhinitis were recruited in nine study centers from seven countries. Sensitization profiles were very heterogeneous but grass pollen major allergenic molecules were among the top three sensitizers in all study centers.
