Interspecies DNA acquisition by a naturally competent Acinetobacter baumannii strain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The human pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii possesses high genetic plasticity and frequently acquires antimicrobial resistance genes. Here we investigated the role of natural transformation in these processes. Genomic DNA from different sources, including

Detection of evolutionary conserved and accelerated genomic regions related to adaptation to thermal niches in Anolis lizards

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2024.
Whole genomes were used from eight Anolis lizard species that repeatedly adapted to similar thermal habitats in multiple lineages and we identified evolutionarily conserved or accelerated genomic regions. Abstract Understanding the genetic basis for adapting to thermal environments is important due to serious effects of global warming on ectothermic ...

Microbial evolution through horizontal gene transfer by mobile genetic elements

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2024.
This mini‐review explores the behaviour of conjugative plasmids in various environments, discusses recent methodologies for tracking mobile genetic elements (MGE) dynamics, and underscores the importance of understanding horizontal gene transfer (HGT) mechanisms to develop effective strategies against antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) dissemination.

Consequence modeling of the ethylene oxide storage tanks explosion using the PHAST software (a case study in a petrochemical industry)

open access: yesسلامت و محیط, 2018
Background and Objective: Ethylene oxide (EO) is a very toxic and dangerous substance with a high potential for explosion and fire. Ethylene oxide units are among the most hazardous units in petrochemical industries. This study was designed to analyze and model the consequences of ethylene oxide storage tanks explosion in one of Iranchr('39')s ...
