Probe Capture Enrichment Sequencing of amoA Genes Improves the Detection of Diverse Ammonia‐Oxidising Archaeal and Bacterial Populations

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 3, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The ammonia monooxygenase subunit A (amoA) gene has been used to investigate the phylogenetic diversity, spatial distribution and activity of ammonia‐oxidising archaeal (AOA) and bacterial (AOB), which contribute significantly to the nitrogen cycle in various ecosystems. Amplicon sequencing of amoA is a widely used method; however, it produces

Environmental Risk Factors for Parkinson's Disease: A Critical Review and Policy Implications

open access: yesMovement Disorders, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 204-221, February 2025.
Abstract The age‐standardized prevalence of Parkinson's disease (PD) has increased substantially over the years and is expected to increase further. This emphasizes the need to identify modifiable risk factors of PD, which could form a logical entry point for the prevention of PD. The World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended reducing exposure to
