Differences in microbiota between two multilocus lineages of the sugarcane Aphid (Melanaphis sacchari) in the continental United States [PDF]
, 2020 The sugarcane aphid (SCA), Melanaphis Sacchari (Zehntner) (Hemiptera: Aphididae), has been considered an invasive pest of sugarcane in the continental United States since 1977. Then, in 2013, SCA abruptly became a serious pest of U.S.

DNA vaccines for bacterial infections
Immunology & Cell Biology, 1997 DNA vaccines are an exciting development in vaccine technology which may have a special role in preventing viral infections and as ‘theracines’ for cancer. Their use in preventing bacterial infections has, by comparison, been less well documented.

Indirect DNA extraction method suitable for acidic soil with high clay content
MethodsX, 2018 DNA extraction is an essential procedure when investigating microbial communities in environmental samples by sequencing technologies. High clay soils can be problematic as DNA adsorbs to the clay particles and can thereby be preserved from lysed, non ...

Bacterial DNA amplifies neutrophilic inflammation in IL-17-exposed airways
ERJ Open Research, 2023 Background Neutrophilic asthma (NA) is associated with increased airway interleukin (IL)-17 and abnormal bacterial community such as dominance of nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi), particularly during asthma exacerbations.

Dynamics of Bacteriophage Genome Ejection In Vitro and In Vivo
, 2010 Bacteriophages, phages for short, are viruses of bacteria. The majority of phages contain a double-stranded DNA genome packaged in a capsid at a density of ~500 mg/ml. This high density requires substantial compression of the normal B form helix, leading
