Archaeal Genes Code for GGDEF Domain Proteins With Diguanylate Cyclase Activity

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
A biofilm‐like mode of growth is hypothesized to be required for the emergence of cellular life. Occurrence of common biofilm gene products in current Bacteria and Archaea is an indication for their previous presence in the last universal common ancestor LUCA and perhaps even in the first universal common ancestor FUCA.

Urban ants as potential mechanical vectors of pathogenic and antibiotic‐resistant bacteria in a Brazilian hospital

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Nine ant taxa were identified in a Brazilian hospital, with Tapinoma melanocephalum and Dorymyrmex brunneus being the most abundant. Eighty‐five percent of collected ants yielded detectable bacterial growth, including clinically relevant genera such as Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas, Escherichia coli and Pluralibacter.

Between Construction and Inheritance: The Hidden Frame of Colonialism in Galician Nationalism

Nations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During the 1960s and 1970s, anticolonial liberation narratives transcended the geopolitical boundaries of the Global South and profoundly shaped nationalist movements in Europe. Although the anticolonial frame gained momentum during this period, its overtly confrontational rhetoric was gradually supplanted by moderate frames that aligned with ...

Comparative analysis of immune responses in ovipositing and non‐ovipositing females of European earwig Analyse comparative de la réponse immunitaire avant et après la ponte chez le forficule européen

Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.
Oviposition and care decrease the total haemocyte concentration. Oviposition and care affect haemocyte type proportions. Serratia marcescens challenge does not affect the immune cell parameters. Abstract Reproduction and immunity are essential biological processes that compete for resources and energy.

Effectiveness of nonsurgical therapy of peri‐implant mucositis: A systematic review

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives This systematic review intends to respond to the question: “How do clinical parameters change in implants affected by peri‐implant mucositis following different non‐surgical treatment approaches or no treatment in patients monitored for a minimum of six months?” Materials and Methods A search for randomized clinical trials (RCTs) or
