HiMBar: A High‐Fidelity Metagenomic Barcoding Approach for Transkingdom Species Detection and Interaction Analysis in Aquatic Ecosystems

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquatic ecosystems host diverse organisms across all six life kingdoms, yet their complex interactions remain poorly understood, primarily due to limitations in transkingdom species detection methods. To address this limitation, we developed HiMBar (https://github.com/Xchenkai2019/HIFI_barcoding), a high‐fidelity (HiFi) metagenomic barcoding ...

Molecular Identification and Phylogeny of Natural Wolbachia Infection in Iranian Mosquitoes With a New Record of Wolbachia Supergroup B Infecting Anopheles hyrcanus Populations

Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Mosquitoes are significant vectors of infectious diseases such as malaria and arboviruses, which pose public health challenges globally. Anopheles hyrcanus is widely distributed in northern Iran and neighboring Middle Eastern countries and is considered a potential vector of mosquito‐borne diseases in these regions.

Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Ehrlichia canis Infection

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Transmitted by tick vectors, Ehrlichia canis (E. canis) is a Gram‐negative, obligate intracellular bacterium of zoonotic concern that infects both canine and human hosts. Its pathogenesis centers on the targeting of mononuclear phagocytes, where it establishes an intracellular niche by suppressing phagolysosomal fusion and evading immune detection ...

Comparative Genomics of the Endosymbiont Cardinium Causing Reproductive Manipulation in Encarsia Parasitoid Wasps

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
We assembled four Cardinium hertigii draft genomes: cEina3 causes cytoplasmic incompatibility, cEhis1 induces parthenogenesis, cEper2 is associated with parthenogenesis, and cEina2 infects asymptomatically. All four strains are closely related and hosted by Encarsia parasitoid wasps, but key differences exist, including their metabolic potential and ...

Positive Interactions Under Ocean Warming and Acidification: Crustose Coralline Algae Holobionts Enhance Gorgonian Larval Settlement Under Climate Change

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 12, December 2025.
Crustose coralline algae (CCA) are key for the settlement of the larvae of the Mediterranean white gorgonian, Eunicella singularis, especially after treatment under future climate change conditions. CCA also influence larval microbiome development. (A) Enhanced larval settlement is driven by bacterial breakdown and utilisation of CCA polysaccharides ...

Signature proteins that are distinctive of alpha proteobacteria

BMC Genomics, 2005
Background The alpha (α) proteobacteria, a very large and diverse group, are presently characterized solely on the basis of 16S rRNA trees, with no known molecular characteristic that is unique to this group.

Eperythrozoon teganodes sp.nov. (Rickettsiales), parasitic in cattle

Parasitology, 1962
Eperythrozoon teganodes is described from the blood of cattle. It is compared with, and is shown to be distinct from, E. wenyoni Adler & Ellenbogen, 1934. E. teganodes is a parasite of the plasma rather than of the erythrocyte. It occurs as fine rods and threads, rings, and rings with a rod or thread attached. (E.
