Is Blood Thicker Than Water? The Influence of Kin Within a Bull Shark Social Network

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study investigates how kinship (“kinfluence”) shapes social structure in an aggregation of adult bull sharks in Fiji by integrating genomic relatedness, pedigree reconstruction, and detailed behavioral data. It reveals that while genetic relatedness has a small but significant influence on social behavior, especially among males, kin‐category ...

Seasonal Restructuring of Microbial Communities and Resistomes in the Shitalakshya River, Bangladesh Revealed by Shotgun Metagenomics

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Dry‐season pollutant concentration drives microbial restructuring in Bangladesh's Shitalakshya River, shifting communities from Myroides to stress‐tolerant genera while enriching metal resistance genes and efflux pumps, revealing non‐antibiotic co‐selection as a key driver of antimicrobial resistance in urban waters.

Characterisation of ST25 NDM-1-producing Acinetobacter spp. strains leading the increase in NDM-1 emergence in Argentina

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2020
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii are recognised by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as an urgent threat [1]. The most prevalent mechanism of carbapenem resistance in Acinetobacter spp. is due to the presence of carbapenem-hydrolysing class D β-lactamases, with OXA-23 being the most common. The observed dispersion

Longitudinal Molecular Epidemiology and Genomic Surveillance of Carbapenem‐Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in the Gut of Healthy Individuals in China

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Using 16,040 stool samples from healthy individuals across 30 Chinese provinces (2016–2024), we performed longitudinal genomic surveillance of carbapenem‑resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) colonizing the gut. We reveal rising community CRKP prevalence, especially in southern China, a shift from blaKPC‐2 to plasmid‑borne blaNDM‐5 on IncHI2/IncHI2A ...

Testing for Conformity With Parametric Distributions Using Level Sets: From Univariate to Bivariate Applications

Statistical Analysis and Data Mining: An ASA Data Science Journal, Volume 19, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Conformity of observed data with a postulated probability distribution is a fundamental problem of statistical modeling. Current tools for checking distributional conformity are often limited to univariate settings, with extensions to multivariate distributions facing challenges in interpretability and power.

Evaluation of co-transfer of plasmid-mediated fluoroquinolone resistance genes and bla NDM gene in Enterobacteriaceae causing neonatal septicaemia

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2019
Background The bla NDM-1 (New Delhi Metallo-β-lactamase-1) gene has disseminated around the globe. NDM-1 producers are found to co-harbour resistance genes against many antimicrobials, including fluoroquinolones.
