Why genes evolve faster on secondary chromosomes in bacteria [PDF]
, 2010 In bacterial genomes composed of more than one chromosome, one replicon is typically larger, harbors more essential genes than the others, and is considered primary.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.This study reveals how ecological disturbances reshape the structure and function of soil bacterial communities in kauri forests, which are critical for ecosystem resilience. By linking disturbance regimes to shifts in bacterial diversity and functional capacity, it highlights the wider effects of ecosystem disturbance on soil ecological function ...

Differential and Temporal Immunomodulation of alpha4 Integrins on CD4+ Memory Cells by Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis [PDF]
, 2012 Pertussis, caused by Bordetella pertussis (B. pertussis), is reemerging worldwide due to vaccine inefficacy. The hallmarks of infection are extreme lymphocytosis and delayed recovery, which are partially associated with pertussis toxin.

Genome dynamics of Bartonella grahamii in micro-populations of woodland rodents [PDF]
, 2010 Background Rodents represent a high-risk reservoir for the emergence of new human pathogens. The recent completion of the 2.3 Mb genome of Bartonella grahamii, one of the most prevalent blood-borne bacteria in wild rodents, revealed a higher abundance of

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Background and Aim Tetracyclines continue to serve as a cost‐effective and essential treatment for common infections, particularly in resource‐limited regions such as lymphatic filariasis (LF)‐hyperendemic communities. The growing use of tetracycline‐based antibiotics by symptomatic filarial lymphedema patients, likely influenced by the ...

Bordetella bronchiseptica exploits the complex life cycle of Dictyostelium discoideum as an amplifying transmission vector. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2017 Multiple lines of evidence suggest that Bordetella species have a significant life stage outside of the mammalian respiratory tract that has yet to be defined.

Genomic features of Bordetella parapertussisclades with distinct host species specificity [PDF]
Genome Biology, 2006 Abstract Background The respiratory pathogen Bordetella parapertussis is a valuable model in which to study the complex phenotype of host specificity because of its unique two-species host range. One subset of strains, including the sequenced representative, causes whooping cough in humans, while other ...
