Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 5, Page 2168-2175, September 2023., 2023 (1) Swab and tissue samples were collected from 435 birds in 24 different commercial poultry flocks in Iran. (2) Specimens from a commercial turkey flock were positive in a Chlamydiaceae‐specific real‐time PCR assay targeting 23S rRNA gene. (3) Partial DNA sequencing of IGS and ompA gene revealed that the positive samples were Chlamydia pneumoniae ...

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 16, Issue 4, Page 824-848, April 2023., 2023 Abstract Human activity is a major driver of ecological and evolutionary change in wild populations and can have diverse effects on eukaryotic organisms as well as on environmental and host‐associated microbial communities. Although host–microbiome interactions can be a major determinant of host fitness, few studies consider the joint responses of ...

Trends in Bacterial Pathogens of Bats: Global Distribution and Knowledge Gaps
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023 Bats have received considerable recent attention for infectious disease research because of their potential to host and transmit viruses, including Ebola, Hendra, Nipah, and multiple coronaviruses. These pathogens are occasionally transmitted from bats to wildlife, livestock, and to humans, directly or through other bridging (intermediate) hosts.

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page e3154-e3170, September 2022., 2022 Abstract Birds can act as successful long‐distance vectors and reservoirs for numerous zoonotic bacterial, parasitic and viral pathogens, which can be a concern given the interconnectedness of animal, human and environmental health. Examples of such avian pathogens are members of the genus Chlamydia. Presently, there is a lack of research investigating

WIREs RNA, Volume 13, Issue 3, May/June 2022., 2022 The trp attenuator and its trans‐acting products in Sinorhizobium meliloti Abstract Gene expression strategies ensuring bacterial survival and competitiveness rely on cis‐ and trans‐acting RNA‐regulators (riboregulators). Among the cis‐acting riboregulators are transcriptional and translational attenuators, and antisense RNAs (asRNAs). The trans‐acting

Urbanization comprehensively impairs biological rhythms in coral holobionts
Global Change Biology, Volume 28, Issue 10, Page 3349-3364, May 2022., 2022 By exploring the annual, monthly, and diel biological cycles we show how key physiological and metabolical processes are changed or masked in the lifespan of coral reefs in urban areas. Abstract Coral reefs are in global decline due to climate change and anthropogenic influences (Hughes et al., Conservation Biology, 27: 261–269, 2013).

Cadmium‐tolerant bacteria: current trends and applications in agriculture
Letters in Applied Microbiology, Volume 74, Issue 3, Page 311-333, March 2022., 2022 Significance and Impact of the Study: Crop production is adversely affected by the presence of heavy metals in soils dedicated to agriculture. These metals ultimately accumulate in seeds or edible parts and enter the human food chain. The application of cadmium (Cd)‐tolerant bacteria capacities for Cd immobilization and sequestration, in combination ...

Habitat shapes diversity of gut microbiomes in a wild population of blue tits Cyanistes caeruleus
Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2022, Issue 2, February 2022., 2022 Microbiome constitutes an important axis of individual variation that, together with genes and the environment, influences an individual's physiology and fitness. Microbiomes are dependent not only on an individual's body condition but also on external factors, such as diet or stress levels, and as such can be involved into feedbacks between the ...
