Gene content evolution in the arthropods [PDF]
Arthropods comprise the largest and most diverse phylum on Earth and play vital roles in nearly every ecosystem. Their diversity stems in part from variations on a conserved body plan, resulting from and recorded in adaptive changes in the genome ...

Phylogenies of atpD and recA support the small subunit rRNA-based classification of rhizobia [PDF]
The current classification of the rhizobia (root-nodule symbionts) assigns them to six genera. It is strongly influenced by the small subunit (16S, SSU) rRNA molecular phylogeny, but such single-gene phylogenies may not reflect the evolution of the ...

Usurpativirus massiliensis, a new giant virus related to clandestinovirus
Giant virus discovery in 2003 revolutionized the virus paradigm. In 2015, we introduced a new host, Vermamoeba vermiformis, that led to the discovery of Faustovirus, Orpheovirus and two giant viruses (Clandestinovirus and a faustovirus) having distinct ...

Genomic dissection of the 1994 Cronobacter sakazakii outbreak in a French neonatal intensive care unit [PDF]
Background: Cronobacter sakazakii is a member of the genus Cronobacter that has frequently been isolated from powdered infant formula (PIF) and linked with rare but fatal neonatal infections such as meningitis and necrotising enterocolitis.

Communication and Language Profiles of Children Treated for Posterior Fossa Brain Tumors
ABSTRACT Background Cognitive and language deficits are frequently reported sequelae of posterior fossa brain tumors (PFBT). Typically, delayed onset impedes prompt assessment and early intervention. This has devastating implications for quality of life.
