Diversity and Prevalence of Coral Diseases in the Nearshore Regions of the Northern South China Sea. [PDF]
This study presents the first systematic survey of coral disease diversity and prevalence in the nearshore regions of the northern South China Sea. Six common diseases and eight stress‐related phenomena were documented across seven sites, revealing distinct regional patterns and host‐specific susceptibilities.

Salinity Negatively Impacts Protistan and Fungal Community Stability and Shapes Assembly Processes in Freshwater Ecosystems. [PDF]
We investigated the spatiotemporal and biogeographical patterns of protistan and fungal communities in the water column of two different lake systems in Croatia through almost 2 years. Salinity has a strong influence on both communities. ABSTRACT In freshwater lakes, protistan and fungal communities play crucial roles in the microbial loop as ...

Microarray analysis of spring barley cultivars displaying differing sensitivity to physiological leaf spot (PLS) [PDF]
peer-reviewedPhysiological leaf spot (PLS) is a disorder of spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), which has become more pronounced in recent years. The initial symptoms are small chlorotic/brown spots on the upper four leaves, which may develop into ...

Changes in metabolic phenotypes of Plasmodium falciparum in vitro cultures during gametocyte development. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Gametocytes are the Plasmodium life stage that is solely responsible for malaria transmission. Despite their important role in perpetuating malaria, gametocyte differentiation and development is poorly understood.

Analysis of chloroplast genomes and a supermatrix inform reclassification of the Rhodomelaceae (Rhodophyta). [PDF]
With over a thousand species, the Rhodomelaceae is the most species-rich family of red algae. While its genera have been assigned to 14 tribes, the high-level classification of the family has never been evaluated with a molecular phylogeny.

Diversity in the structures and ligand binding sites of nematode fatty acid and retinol binding proteins revealed by Na-FAR-1 from Necator americanus [PDF]
Fatty acid and retinol binding proteins (FARs) comprise a family of unusual α-helix rich lipid binding proteins found exclusively in nematodes. They are secreted into host tissues by parasites of plants, animals and humans. The structure of a FAR protein

Integration and mining of malaria molecular, functional and pharmacological data: how far are we from a chemogenomic knowledge space? [PDF]
The organization and mining of malaria genomic and post-genomic data is highly motivated by the necessity to predict and characterize new biological targets and new drugs. Biological targets are sought in a biological space designed from the genomic data

QSAR-Driven Discovery of Novel Chemical Scaffolds Active against Schistosoma mansoni. [PDF]
Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease that affects millions of people worldwide. Thioredoxin glutathione reductase of Schistosoma mansoni (SmTGR) is a validated drug target that plays a crucial role in the redox homeostasis of the parasite.
