The impact of Ricinus straw on tomato growth and soil microbial community [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Returning straw can alter the soil microbial community, reduce the occurrence of soilborne diseases, and promote plant growth. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effects of Ricinus straw on tomato growth and rhizosphere microbial community.

Genome Sequence of Alongshan Virus from Ixodes ricinus Ticks Collected in Switzerland

open access: yesMicrobiology Resource Announcements, 2023
Here, we report the detection of an Alongshan virus (ALSV) strain in Switzerland. Next-generation sequencing of homogenates from Ixodes ricinus ticks collected in Canton Grisons, Switzerland, in 2022 yielded a coding-complete ALSV genome.
