Sequence data support greater taxonomic diversity and a complicated history of hybridisation in New Zealand's sun orchids ‐ Thelymitra (Orchidaceae)

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 63, Issue 5, Page 2817-2839, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Thelymitra, commonly known as sun orchids, is a genus of orchids present in New Zealand (NZ), known for their radially symmetrical and brightly coloured flowers. A long history of nomenclatural changes, and a recent and rapid circumscription of Australian (AU) taxa has left our understanding of this genus in NZ lagging. In this study we report

Treatments affecting splenic function as a risk factor for valvular heart disease in Childhood Cancer Survivors: A DCCSS‐LATER study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 71, Issue 11, November 2024.
Abstract Purpose Splenectomy might be a risk factor for valvular heart disease (VHD) in adult Hodgkin lymphoma survivors. As this risk is still unclear for childhood cancer survivors (CCS), the aim of this study is to evaluate the association between treatments affecting splenic function (splenectomy and radiotherapy involving the spleen) and VHD in ...

RETRACTED: Current understanding of Bordetella‐induced cough

Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 123-129, April 2024.
Abstract Typical pathogenic bacteria of the genus Bordetella cause respiratory diseases, many of which are characterized by severe coughing in host animals. In human infections with these bacteria, such as whooping cough, coughing imposes a heavy burden on patients.

Development of a Bioaerosol Sampling Method for Airborne Pathogen Detection with Focus on SARS‐CoV‐2

Indoor Air, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
As worldwide evidence shows that the predominant transmission route of SARS‐CoV‐2 and other respiratory pathogens is airborne, the need for suitable methods for the sampling of bioparticles directly from the air is more urgent than ever. The present paper describes the development of a method for the collection of biological aerosols, using a ...
