Towards precision quantification of contamination in metagenomic sequencing experiments
Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) experiments involving small amounts of nucleic acid input are highly susceptible to erroneous conclusions resulting from unintentional sequencing of occult contaminants, especially those derived from ...

High-Throughput DNA Analysis Platform Based on an Optofluidic Ring Resonator Laser
We demonstrate an optofluidic laser using DNA microdroplets, an intercalating dye, and a glass capillary ring resonator. Only the target DNA emits the laser signal, while the non-target DNA, including those with single-base mismatches, exhibits zero ...

Detection and characterization of tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus association with mosaic disease of ivy gourd (Coccinia grandis (L.) Voigt) in North India [PDF]
Sixteen ivy gourd (Coccinia grandis (L.) Voigt) plant samples showing severe mosaic symptoms were collected from New Delhi and Varanasi (Uttar Pradesh) in India. Begomovirus infection was confirmed by PCR using begomovirusspecific primers.

Sequence analysis of four caprine mitochondria DNA lineages
The complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) (16640bp in length) was sequenced from four Chinese goat lineages representing the four major mtDNA haplogroups in goats. A total of 124 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were found in encoding regions, and the

Genomic analysis of sequence-dependent DNA curvature in Leishmania. [PDF]
Leishmania major is a flagellated protozoan parasite of medical importance. Like other members of the Trypanosomatidae family, it possesses unique mechanisms of gene expression such as constitutive polycistronic transcription of directional gene clusters,
