Genetic composition and diversity of Arabica coffee in the crop’s centre of origin and its impact on four major fungal diseases

Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 10, Page 2484-2503, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Conventional wisdom states that genetic variation reduces disease levels in plant populations. Nevertheless, crop species have been subject to a gradual loss of genetic variation through selection for specific traits during breeding, thereby increasing their vulnerability to biotic stresses such as pathogens.

Baptism of Fire: Modeling the Effects of Prescribed Fire on Lyme Disease

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Recently, tick‐borne illnesses have been trending upward and are an increasing source of risk to people’s health in the United States. This is due to range expansion in tick habitats as a result of climate change. Thus, it is imperative to find a practical and cost‐efficient way of managing tick populations.
