Deep RNA-Seq profile reveals biodiversity, plant-microbe interactions and a large family of NBS-LRR resistance genes in walnut (Juglans regia) tissues. [PDF]
Deep RNA-Seq profiling, a revolutionary method used for quantifying transcriptional levels, often includes non-specific transcripts from other co-existing organisms in spite of stringent protocols. Using the recently published walnut genome sequence as a

ABSTRACT Background Fungi in tumors act as a double‐edged sword, potentially worsening or alleviating malignancy based on the ecological balance within the tumor microenvironment (TME). Hydrogels, as innovative drug delivery systems, are poised to redefine treatment paradigms.

Disseminated cryptococcosis manifested as a single tumor in an immunocompetent patient, similar to the cutaneous primary forms [PDF]
Cryptococcosis is a fungal infection caused by Cryptococcus neoformans that tends to affect immunocompromised individuals. The fungi are mostly acquired by inhalation, which leads to an initial pulmonary infection.

Koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus) and Stemflow: Drinking More Than Just Water
ABSTRACT Stemflow, water that flows down the outside of tree stems during precipitation events, is a type of free water used by koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus) for drinking, alongside the moisture obtained from the Eucalyptus leaves consumed in their diet. The properties of stemflow in the context of its utilisation by animals are currently unknown. In
