DNA barcode approaches to reveal interspecies genetic variation of Indian ungulates

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
In the past two decades, identification of species from noninvasive sampling has turned out to be an important tool for wildlife conservation. In this study a total 93 specimens representing 22 species of ungulates were analyzed from partial sequences of

Unveiling Global Diversity of Patescibacteriota and Functional Interactions with Host Microbes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Patescibacteriota represents a diverse group of ultra‐small epibiotic bacteria, which is largely overlooked. By integrating ribosomal protein S3‐based community profiling with MAG‐based metabolic potential analyses, this study provides new insights into their distribution, diversity, and potential interactions with other bacteria across diverse ...

Novel Variants of Clade 2.3.4 Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A(H5N1) Viruses, China

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
We characterized 7 highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1) viruses isolated from poultry in China during 2009–2012 and found that they belong to clade 2.3.4 but do not fit within the 3 defined subclades.

Combining genomics and epidemiology to track mumps virus transmission in the United States. [PDF]

, 2020
Unusually large outbreaks of mumps across the United States in 2016 and 2017 raised questions about the extent of mumps circulation and the relationship between these and prior outbreaks.

Two Novel S‐methyltransferases Confer Dimethylsulfide Production in Actinomycetota

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies two novel S‐adenosine‐methionine‐dependent methyltransferases, MddM1 and MddM2, in actinomycetes from the Mariana Trench. These enzymes can convert toxic hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and methanethiol (MeSH) into dimethylsulfide (DMS), serving as a cellular detoxification and oxidative stress response.

Candida albicansclades [PDF]

FEMS Immunology & Medical Microbiology, 2003
DNA fingerprinting with the complex probe Ca3 has revealed the following five Candida albicans clades: group I, group II, group III, group SA and group E. These groups exhibit geographical specificity. Group SA is relatively specific (i.e., highly enriched) to South Africa, group E is relatively specific to Europe, and group II is absent in the ...

A Set of Novel Venom Proteins Enables Parasitoid Wasps to Exploit Older Hosts and Coexist with Competitors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study elucidates a molecular mechanism enabling species coexistence between parasitoid wasps, showing how Asobara japonica uses a set of novel venom proteins to delay host development and exploit older hosts, thereby achieving temporal niche partitioning with Leptopilina drosophilae. Abstract Interspecific competition can drive species coexistence

Identification and Mechanisms of Osteocyte Subsets Involved in the Pathological Progression of Osteoporosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Osteocyte heterogeneity in bone remains poorly understood. This study identifies six distinct osteocyte subsets in mice, revealing a key subpopulation (BHR‐Ocys) that drives bone loss in osteoporosis. BHR‐Ocys promote osteoclast‐mediated resorption via a novel Sema5a‐Plxna1 signaling axis.
