Making the Most of Clade Selection [PDF]

Philosophia Scientiæ, 2017
Clade selection is unpopular with philosophers who otherwise accept multilevel selection theory. Clades cannot reproduce, and reproduction is widely thought necessary for evolution by natural selection, especially of complex adaptations.

Ecogenomics of the SAR11 clade [PDF]

Environmental Microbiology, 2019
Summary Members of the SAR11 clade, despite their high abundance, are often poorly represented by metagenome‐assembled genomes. This fact has hampered our knowledge about their ecology and genetic diversity. Here we examined 175 SAR11 genomes, including 47 new single‐amplified genomes. The presence of the first genomes associated with

Characterization of a novel reassortant H5N6 highly pathogenic avian influenza virus clade 2.3.4.4 in Korea, 2017 [PDF]

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2018
Dear Editor, Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses of the H5 subtype remain a serious concern for both poultry and human health. The clade 2.3.4.4 H5 viruses have evolved into four genetic groups (nominally designated A, B, C, and D).

Concurrent Clade I and Clade II Monkeypox Virus Circulation, Cameroon, 1979–2022

Emerging Infectious Diseases
During 1979-2022, Cameroon recorded 32 laboratory-confirmed mpox cases among 137 suspected mpox cases identified by the national surveillance network. The highest positivity rate occurred in 2022, indicating potential mpox re-emergence in Cameroon. Both clade I (n = 12) and clade II (n = 18) monkeypox virus (MPXV) were reported, a unique feature of ...

Clade I–Associated Mpox Cases Associated with Sexual Contact, the Democratic Republic of the Congo

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023
We report a cluster of clade I monkeypox virus infections linked to sexual contact in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Case investigations resulted in 5 reverse transcription PCR–confirmed infections; genome sequencing suggest they belonged to the ...

Emergence and spread of novel H5N8, H5N5 and H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4 highly pathogenic avian influenza in 2020

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2021
Analyses of HPAI H5 viruses from poultry outbreaks across a wide Eurasian region since July 2020 including the Russian Federation, Republics of Iraq and Kazakhstan, and recent detections in migratory waterfowl in the Netherlands, revealed undetected ...

Confirmation of fifth Candida auris clade by whole genome sequencing

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2022
Candida auris has emerged globally as a multidrug-resistant pathogen causing outbreaks in health care facilities. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis has identified four major clades, while earlier WGS data from a single Iranian isolate suggested the ...

Scorzonera sensu lato (Asteraceae, Cichorieae) – taxonomic reassessment in the light of new molecular phylogenetic and carpological analyses [PDF]

, 2020
Scorzonera comprises 180–190 species and belongs to the subtribe Scorzonerinae. Its circumscription has long been the subject of debate and available molecular phylogenetic analyses affirmed the polyphyly of Scorzonera in its wide sense.
