A new South American darter (Crenuchidae: Characidium) from rivers draining the Northeastern Mata Atlantica Freshwater Ecoregion, Brazil: morphological and molecular evidence

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Characidium tupi, a new species from rivers draining the southern portion of the Northeastern Mata Atlantica Freshwater Ecoregion, is described. The new species can be distinguished from all congeners by its colour pattern, including 7–14 dark bars enlarged and more conspicuous on their ventralmost portion, resulting in a longitudinal series ...

A new minisatellite-based scheme for the global surveillance of Xanthomonas citri pv. citri, the causal agent of Asiatic Citrus Canker. : S12O12 [PDF]

, 2012
Xanthomonas citri pv. citri (Xcc), the causal agent of Asiatic Citrus Canker, is an internationally major bacterial pathogen currently not reported from countries in the Mediterranean basin, including the EU. Some pathological diversity among strains was

Detection of mecC-Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates in river water : a potential role for water in the environmental dissemination [PDF]

, 2014
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a public health concern due to limited treatment options. The recent description of a mecA homologue, mecC in human and cattle, led to studies to detect this new variant in human and other animal ...

Occurrence and genotyping of Giardia duodenalis and Cryptosporidium in pre-weaned dairy calves in central Sichuan province, China

Parasite, 2018
Giardia duodenalis and Cryptosporidium spp. are common human and animal pathogens. They have increasingly been reported in dairy calves in recent years; however, multilocus genotyping information for G. duodenalis and Cryptosporidium infecting pre-weaned

The hard and soft of it: The role of substrate in patterns of phase dominance and phenology in Gracilaria vermiculophylla

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the importance of the seasonal timing of events in the life cycle for understanding population dynamics, we lack information on the phenology of most macroalgal species. The red macroalga Gracilaria vermiculophylla has become common in both hard‐ and soft‐bottom habitats following its invasion throughout the Northern Hemisphere.

Failure of phylogeny inferred from multilocus sequence typing to represent bacterial phylogeny

Scientific Reports, 2017
Although multilocus sequence typing (MLST) is highly discriminatory and useful for outbreak investigations and epidemiological surveillance, it has always been controversial whether clustering and phylogeny inferred from the MLST gene loci can represent ...

Multilocus Sequence Typing of Pathogenic Candida Species [PDF]

Eukaryotic Cell, 2008
Typing strains within a microbial species on the basis of DNA sequences at multiple loci has greatly advanced study of the epidemiology and evolutionary phylogenetics of many bacterial ([9][1], [40][2], [60][3], [72][4]) and fungal ([26][5], [68][6]) pathogens. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST)
