New diagnostic SNP molecular markers for the Mytilus species complex

PLoS ONE, 2018
The development of diagnostic markers has been a long-standing interest of population geneticists as it allows clarification of taxonomic uncertainties. Historically, there has been much debate on the taxonomic status of species belonging to the Mytilus ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

From the Clinical Mycology Laboratory: New Species and Changes in Fungal Taxonomy and Nomenclature

Journal of Fungi, 2018
Fungal taxonomy is the branch of mycology by which we classify and group fungi based on similarities or differences. Historically, this was done by morphologic characteristics and other phenotypic traits.

The Culicoides of the subgenus Avaritia (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) in the Palaearctic region: through unsuspected diversity with epidemiologic implications [PDF]

, 2012
The biting midges of the genus Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) are known vectors of pathogens especially Orbivirus of the Reoviridae family such as bluetongue, african horse sickness, epizootic hemorrhagic disease and more recently Schmallenberg ...

Soil Microbial Networks Shift Across a High-Elevation Successional Gradient. [PDF]

, 2019
While it is well established that microbial composition and diversity shift along environmental gradients, how interactions among microbes change is poorly understood.

The current status of the Lutzomyia longipalpis (Diptera: Psychodidae: Phlebotominae) species complex

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2017
Lutzomyia longipalpis s.l. is a complex of sibling species and is the principal vector of American visceral leishmaniasis. The present review summarises the diversity of efforts that have been undertaken to elucidate the number of unnamed species in this

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Xiphinema krugi, Species Complex or Complex of Cryptic Species?

Journal of nematology, 2012
Fourteen morphologically putative populations of X. krugi were clearly separated into four different profiles by RFLP analysis (Alu I and Hinf I), sequencing of the ITS-1 region, and subsequent Maximum Likelihood phylogenetic analyses. These four profiles were further supported by a principal component analysis of morphometric characters that yielded ...

Expanding Soil Invertebrate Knowledge in Panama: The Genus Lepidocyrtus (Collembola, Entomobryidae) in the Parque Natural Metropolitano as a Study Case

Insects
Panama, located in the heart of the Mesoamerican hotspot, harbors an extraordinary species diversity across the Tree of Life. The Collembola species of the genus Lepidocyrtus play an important role in soil biological processes such as decomposition ...
