Invasive mosquito species Aedes albopictus and Aedes aegypti on the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus: genetics (COI, ITS2), Wolbachia and Dirofilaria infections

Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2018
The area of invasive species Aedes albopictus and Aedes aegypti is expanding. Precise identification and understanding of the genetic diversity of invasive mosquito populations allows us to develop appropriate control methods.

From pathogens to partners: temporal and biogeographical patterns in fungal associations of alien trees

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Alien trees reshape belowground fungal communities, but the factors governing the balance between mutualists and pathogens remain unclear. We tested whether residence time, mycorrhizal type, and biogeographical origin shape this balance, and whether alien stands differ from native vegetation. We sampled soils beneath 73 alien tree species in 48

Evaluation of ITS2 for intraspecific identification of Paeonia lactiflora cultivars

Biotechnology Reports, 2017
Herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora Pall.) is an important ornamental and medicinal plant. DNA barcodes can reveal species identity via the nucleotide diversity of short DNA segments. In this study, two main candidate DNA barcodes (ITS2 and psbA-trnH) were tested to identify twenty-one cutting cultivars of P. lactiflora and their wild species.

Unveiling Potato Cultivars With Microbiome Interactive Traits for Sustainable Agricultural Production

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Root traits significantly shape rhizosphere microbiomes, yet their interaction with microbes is often overlooked in plant breeding programs. Here, we propose that selecting modern cultivars based on microbiome interactive trait (MIT), such as root biomass, exudate patterns and the rhizosphere microbiome, can enhance agricultural sustainability

Assessing D‐Squame as a Minimally Invasive Technique to Evaluate the Cutaneous Immune Response mRNA in a Dog Model of Canine Atopic Dermatitis

Veterinary Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) is a multifactorial, inherited skin disease, estimated to affect ≤ 15% of dogs. Studies of skin messenger mRNA in cAD currently use invasive methods, including blood sampling and biopsy collection, whilst advances in human atopic dermatitis study methodology have demonstrated reliable use of minimally ...

ABCA12 Frameshift Deletion in Domestic Cats With Ichthyosis Fetalis

Veterinary Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ichthyosis fetalis (IF), also known as harlequin ichthyosis, is a rare and often fatal autosomal recessive congenital skin disorder. It is characterized by thickened, hard skin plaques and deep skin fissures that limit mobility and cause malformations of the eyes, lips and ears.
