Recent insights into the genotype–phenotype relationship from massively parallel genetic assays

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 12, Issue 9, Page 1721-1742, October 2019., 2019
Abstract With the molecular revolution in Biology, a mechanistic understanding of the genotype–phenotype relationship became possible. Recently, advances in DNA synthesis and sequencing have enabled the development of deep mutational scanning assays, capable of scoring comprehensive libraries of genotypes for fitness and a variety of phenotypes in ...

Occurrence, Persistence, and Virulence Potential of Listeria ivanovii in Foods and Food Processing Environments in the Republic of Ireland

BioMed Research International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
The aim of this study was to assess the occurrence of L. ivanovii in foods and food processing environments in Ireland, to track persistence, and to characterize the disease causing potential of the isolated strains. A total of 2,006 samples (432 food samples and 1,574 environmental swabs) were collected between March 2013 and March 2014 from 48 food ...

Antibacterial Activity of Some Lactic Acid Bacteria Isolated from an Algerian Dairy Product

Journal of Environmental and Public Health, Volume 2009, Issue 1, 2009., 2009
In the present study, the antibacterial effect of 20 lactic acid bacteria isolates from a traditional cheese was investigated. 6 isolates showed antibacterial effect against Gram positive bacteria. Streptococcus thermophilus T2 strain showed the wide inhibitory spectrum against the Gram positive bacteria.

Origin minimally processed foods Plant and Bioconservation

Universitas (León), 2015
There is currently a worldwide trend towards greater consumption of fresh foods with a lower proportion of chemical additives, safe, sensorially acceptable and of high nutritional value; technologies have emerged in the production of this type of food called minimally processed foods. However, the consumption of fresh or minimally processed foods poses

Over three‐quarters of earthworm species lack protection in China, a crisis exacerbated by climate change

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Earthworms, as ‘ecosystem engineers', play a crucial role in regulating ecosystem functions and shaping community structures. Due to climate change, earthworms face severe survival pressures and extinction risks. However, whether conservation efforts targeting aboveground biodiversity can cover the long‐neglected earthworm diversity remains unknown. To
