Intraspecies competition for niches in the distal gut dictate transmission during persistent Salmonella infection. [PDF]
In order to be transmitted, a pathogen must first successfully colonize and multiply within a host. Ecological principles can be applied to study host-pathogen interactions to predict transmission dynamics. Little is known about the population biology of

Compatibility in pollen-pistil interaction of interspecific crossings with Passiflora spp. [PDF]
Intraspecies or interspecies crossings transfer relevant alleles between plants. However, some interspecies crossings involving Passiflora species impede ovule fertilization and the viable development of seeds.

Intraspecies diversity in biofilm communities is associated with enhanced survival and growth of the individual biofilm populations. Studies on the subject are scarce, namely, when more than three strains are present.

Quantitative genetics of intraspecies hybrids [PDF]
Quantitative genetics generally is based on the properties of the randomly fertilized (RF) population or inbred derivatives of it. Simple hybrids and hybrid swarms do not conform to this model; and only some properties of hybrid means appear to have been available.

Dynamical realization of magnetic states in a strongly interacting Bose mixture [PDF]
We describe the dynamical preparation of magnetic states in a strongly interacting two-component Bose gas in a harmonic trap. By mapping this system to an effective spin chain model, we obtain the dynamical spin densities and the fidelities for a few ...

ConFindr: rapid detection of intraspecies and cross-species contamination in bacterial whole-genome sequence data [PDF]
Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of bacterial pathogens is currently widely used to support public-health investigations. The ability to assess WGS data quality is critical to underpin the reliability of downstream analyses.

Intraspecies genotypic heterogeneity among Mycoplasma gallisepticum strains [PDF]
The DNA cleavage patterns and protein profiles of six Mycoplasma gallisepticum strains from various parts of the world were compared. Obvious differences among the strains were obtained by DNA restriction analysis. Reflection of genotypic variations in the polypeptide patterns was less pronounced; slight differences in the protein profiles of the ...

Acrylamide, which is a suspected human carcinogen, is particularly formed in starch-rich foodstuffs, like potato. The inter- and intraspecies variability of the potato causes a dispersion in the amount of acrylamide.

Intra-Species Interactions in Streptococcus pneumoniae Biofilms
Streptococcus pneumoniae is a human pathogen responsible for high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Disease is incidental and is preceded by asymptomatic nasopharyngeal colonization in the form of biofilms.
