Diversification of Neoaves: integration of molecular sequence data and fossils [PDF]
Biology Letters, 2006 Patterns of diversification and timing of evolution within Neoaves, which includes almost 95% of all bird species, are virtually unknown. On the other hand, molecular data consistently indicate a Cretaceous origin of many neoavian lineages and the fossil record seems to support an Early Tertiary diversification. Here, we present the first well-resolved

Molecular Description of a Novel Orientia Species Causing Scrub Typhus in Chile
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020 Scrub typhus is a potentially fatal rickettsiosis caused by Orientia species intracellular bacteria of the genus Orientia. Although considered to be restricted to the Asia Pacific region, scrub typhus has recently been discovered in southern Chile.

Optimizing nucleic acid sequences for a molecular data recorder [PDF]
Proceedings of the Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference, 2017 We recently reported the design for a DNA nano-device that can record and store molecular signals. Here we present an evolutionary algorithm tailored to optimising nucleic acid sequences that predictively fold into our desired target structures. In our approach, a DNA device is first specified abstractly: the topology of the individual strands and ...

Bioinformatics, 2022 Abstract Motivation Amplicon sequencing is widely applied to explore heterogeneity and rare variants in genetic populations. Resolving true biological variants and quantifying their abundance is crucial for downstream analyses, but measured abundances are distorted by stochasticity and bias in ...

Molecular Epidemiology of O139 Vibrio cholerae: Mutation, Lateral Gene Transfer, and Founder Flush
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003 Vibrio cholerae in O-group 139 was first isolated in 1992 and by 1993 had been found throughout the Indian subcontinent. This epidemic expansion probably resulted from a single source after a lateral gene transfer (LGT) event that changed the serotype of

Genotyping of Chlamydophila psittaci in Human Samples
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2006 Chlamydophila (formerly Chlamydia) psittaci genotypes A, B, C, and a new genotype most similar to the 6BC type strain were found in 10 humans with psittacosis by outer membrane protein A gene sequencing.
