Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus: Molecular Characterization, Evolution, and Epidemiology
Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2018 Staphylococcus aureus, a major human pathogen, has a collection of virulence factors and the ability to acquire resistance to most antibiotics. This ability is further augmented by constant emergence of new clones, making S. aureus a “superbug.” Clinical

The legume-specific transcription factor E1 controls leaf morphology in soybean
BMC Plant Biology, 2021 Background The leaf is a determinate organ essential for photosynthesis, whose size and shape determine plant architecture and strongly affect agronomic traits. In soybean, the molecular mechanism of leaf development is not well understood. The flowering

Host-dependent impairment of parasite development and reproduction in the acanthocephalan model
Cell & Bioscience, 2022 Background A central question in parasitology is why parasites mature and reproduce in some host species but not in others. Yet, a better understanding of the inability of parasites to complete their life cycles in less suitable hosts may hold clues for ...

Molecular evolution of olfactomedin [PDF]
Molecular Biology and Evolution, 1998 Olfactomedin is a secreted polymeric glycoprotein of unknown function, originally discovered at the mucociliary surface of the amphibian olfactory neuroepithelium and subsequently found throughout the mammalian brain. As a first step toward elucidating the function of olfactomedin, its phylogenetic history was examined to identify conserved structural ...

A sea slug’s guide to plastid symbiosis
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 Some 140 years ago sea slugs that contained chlorophyll-pigmented granules similar to those of plants were described. While we now understand that these “green granules” are plastids the slugs sequester from siphonaceous algae upon which they feed ...

Revision of Gyrodactylus salaris phylogeny inspired by new evidence for Eemian crossing between lineages living on grayling in Baltic and White sea basins [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 In this research, grayling-specific Gyrodactylus salaris Malmberg, 1957 isolates from Baltic Sea basin were collected in Sweden for the first time. Samples were obtained in three drainage systems: Kalixälven (River Kaitum), Ljungan (River Sölvbacka ...

Adaptive evolution of molecular phenotypes
, 2014 Molecular phenotypes link genomic information with organismic functions, fitness, and evolution. Quantitative traits are complex phenotypes that depend on multiple genomic loci. In this paper, we study the adaptive evolution of a quantitative trait under
