Automatic generation of pseudoknotted RNAs taxonomy
BMC Bioinformatics, 2023 Background The ability to compare RNA secondary structures is important in understanding their biological function and for grouping similar organisms into families by looking at evolutionarily conserved sequences such as 16S rRNA. Most comparison methods

Minimum Contradiction Matrices in Whole Genome Phylogenies
Evolutionary Bioinformatics, 2008 Minimum contradiction matrices are a useful complement to distance-based phylogenies. A minimum contradiction matrix represents phylogenetic information under the form of an ordered distance matrix Yni,j .

An evolutionary perspective on the kinome of malaria parasites [PDF]
, 2012 Malaria parasites belong to an ancient lineage that diverged very early from the main branch of eukaryotes. The approximately 90-member plasmodial kinome includes a majority of eukaryotic protein kinases that clearly cluster within the AGC, CMGC, TKL ...

Microbial Community Dynamics in Natural Drosophila melanogaster Populations Across Seasons
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2025.The characterisation of fungal and bacterial communities associated with three field populations of Drosophila melanogaster in Germany revealed consistent but also population‐specific changes across seasons. The seasonal microbiota variation was mostly driven by indicator species of Acetobacteraceae bacteria and Saccharomycetales yeasts.

A Biosynthetic and Taxonomic Atlas of the Global Lichen Holobiont
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2025.This analysis of 794 publicly available lichen shotgun metagenomic datasets, covering 467 unique lichen species from 34 countries, revealed that lichens are complex holobionts. They harbour a variety of fungal, algal, and bacterial players with remarkable biosynthetic capabilities.

Phylogenetic Tree Analysis of the Cold-Hot Nature of Traditional Chinese Marine Medicine for Possible Anticancer Activity [PDF]
, 2017 Traditional Chinese Marine Medicine (TCMM) represents one of the medicinal resources for research and development of novel anticancer drugs. In this study, to investigate the presence of anticancer activity (AA) displayed by cold or hot nature of TCMM,

The Plant Journal, Volume 122, Issue 5, June 2025.SUMMARY Celery (Apium graveolens var. dulce) production can be limited by the fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. apii (Foa), particularly at temperatures above 22°C. Because celery has a narrow genetic base, an intraspecific admixture of Apium graveolens was developed into cv.

Massive Horizontal Gene Transfer in Bdelloid Rotifers [PDF]
, 2008 Horizontal gene transfer in metazoans has been documented in only a few species and is usually associated with endosymbiosis or parasitism. By contrast, in bdelloid rotifers we found many genes that appear to have originated in bacteria, fungi, and ...
