Report of the Scientific Committee of the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (AESAN) on the effects of climate change on the risk of transmission of foodborne pathogens

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 3, July 2025.
Abstract The Scientific Committee of the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (AESAN) has carried out an updated review of the scientific evidence on the influence of climate change on the transmission of foodborne pathogens. This global phenomenon represents an emerging threat to food safety and public health, since alterations in weather ...

Reverse genetics in the Arabidopsis chloroplast genome identifies rps16 as a transcribed pseudogene

The Plant Journal, Volume 122, Issue 3, May 2025.
SUMMARY The plastid (chloroplast) genomes of seed plants contain a conserved set of ribosomal protein genes. The rps16 gene represents an exception: It has been lost from the plastid genomes of gymnosperms and several lineages of angiosperms, and may have undergone pseudogenization in a few other lineages, including members of the Brassicaceae family ...

High-resolution cryo-EM structure of the Pseudomonas bacteriophage E217

Nature Communications, 2023
E217 is a Pseudomonas phage used in an experimental cocktail to eradicate cystic fibrosis-associated Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Here, we describe the structure of the whole E217 virion before and after DNA ejection at 3.1 Å and 4.5 Å resolution ...

Genome Sequence and Characterization of Coliphage vB_Eco_SLUR29 [PDF]

PHAGE, 2019
Abstract Bacteriophage that infect Escherichia coli are relatively easily isolated, with greater than 600 coliphage genomes sequenced to date. Despite this there is still much to be discovered about the diversity of coliphage genomes.

Cold Surface Waters of the Sub‐Antarctic Pacific Ocean Support High Cyanophage Abundances and Infection Levels

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2025.
Here, we investigated the abundance of cyanophages and the extent to which they infect Synechococcus and Prochlorococcus, important primary producers, in the cold, low‐light, iron‐limited, sub‐Antarctic waters of the Pacific Ocean. We found that cyanophages are significant mortality agents, leading to substantial losses of these picocyanobacteria ...

Complete Genome Sequence of vB_EcoP_SU7, a Podoviridae Coliphage with the Rare C3 Morphotype

Microorganisms, 2021
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) strains are an important cause of bacterial diarrheal illness in humans and animals. Infections arising from ETEC could potentially be treated through the use of bacteriophage (phage) therapy, as phages encode for ...

Limitation of the Lytic Effect of Bacteriophages on Salmonella and Other Enteric Bacterial Pathogens and Approaches to Overcome

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Bacteriophages (phages) have emerged as promising agents for combating bacterial pathogens, including nontyphoidal Salmonella enterica (S. enterica), the most common foodborne pathogen worldwide. The emergence of antimicrobial‐resistant (AMR) S. enterica poses a severe healthcare issue.
