Fruiting Bodies of Aspergillus in a Cavitary Lung Mass: A Rare Finding on Fine Needle Aspiration. [PDF]

Diagn Cytopathol
ABSTRACT Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) guided fine needle aspiration is a modality for diagnosing lung nodules as well as fungal organisms. One of the most frequently isolated fungal organisms from immunocompromised patients or immunocompetent patients with severe COPD is Aspergillus spp., which is characterized by septate hyphae with progressive ...

Interactions between mycophagous nematodes, mycorrhizal and other soil fungi [PDF]

, 1990
The hypothesis that mycophagous nematodes feed on the mycelia of VAM fungi and consequently reduce the spread of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) infection in plant roots and the growth response of plants to this infection was investigated in ...

In the nectar, there are answers: exploring the intersection of colored nectars and reactive oxygen species in manipulating pollinator behavior. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Nectar, a vital mediator of plant–pollinator interactions, exhibits remarkable chemical diversity beyond sugars, including reactive oxygen species and specialized metabolites such as pigments. Colored nectars, present in over 70 species, function as visual signals, inhibitors of microbial growth, or nutritional rewards, underscoring their ...

Microbial Communities Vary by Body Region but Remain Consistent Across Color Morphs in the Solitary Ascidian <i>Rhopalaea abdominalis</i>. [PDF]

Int J Microbiol
Ascidians are filter‐feeding marine invertebrates that display inter‐ and intraspecific color variation and host diverse microbiomes. Although color variation has been used as an indicator of speciation and correlated with distinct microbiome structure in some colonial species, there is limited research on microbiome variation across color morphs and ...

Oleaginous yeasts for biochemicals, biofuels and food from lignocellulose‐hydrolysate and crude glycerol

Yeast, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 290-302, August 2023., 2023
We discuss the conversion of lignocellulose hydrolysate and crude glycerol to yeast lipids, carotenoids, biosurfactants and other compounds, which can be converted to food and feed, biofuels and biochemicals. Aspects of system analysis, cultivation, lipid analysis and strain diversity are highlighted.

Copepods' true colors: astaxanthin pigmentation as an indicator of fitness

Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Pigmentation is often overlooked in zooplankton, since these organisms are mostly colorless to fit the translucid water medium. However, one of the dominant zooplankton taxa in aquatic ecosystems—copepods—often show a bright red‐orange or blue coloration owing to the accumulation of carotenoid pigments in some parts of their bodies.

Identification and Characterization of a Protease Producing Bacillus cereus Strain From Tannery Waste for Efficient Dehairing of Goat Skin. [PDF]

Biomed Res Int
Environmental pollution has been a significant concern for the last few years. The leather industry significantly contributes to the economy but is one of Bangladesh’s most prominent polluting industries. It is also responsible for several severe diseases such as cancer, lung diseases, and heart diseases of leather workers because they use bleaching ...

Epidemiological observations on pastern dermatitis in young horses and evaluation of essential fatty acid spot‐on applications with or without phytosphingosine as prophylactic treatment

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 221-e62, June 2022., 2022
Background Equine pastern dermatitis (EPD) is a common multifactorial clinical syndrome in horses. Treatment can be difficult; pathogenesis and triggering factors cannot always be determined. Objectives To assess risk factors for developing EPD in a large group of horses kept under the same conditions and to analyse whether or not a spot‐on containing ...
