Emergence and clonal expansion of Vibrio aestuarianus lineages pathogenic for oysters in Europe
(Wiley, 2023-03-01)
Crassostrea gigas oysters represent a significant global food source with 4.7 million tons harvested per year. In 2001, the bacterium Vibrio aestuarianus subsp. francensis emerged as a pathogen that ...
Nitzschia captiva sp. nov. (Bacillariophyta), the essential prey diatom of the kleptoplastic dinoflagellate Durinskia capensis, compared with N. agnita, N. kuetzingioides and other species
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2023-03-13)
Durinskia capensis is a kleptoplastic dinoflagellate species from high intertidal marine rock pools, which can use a variety of diatoms for photosynthesis. However, very few of the diatoms permit ...
Role of mycorrhizas and root exudates in plant uptake of soil nutrients (calcium, iron, magnesium, and potassium): has the puzzle been completely solved?
(Wiley, 2023-03-14)
Anthropogenic global change is driving an increase in the frequency and intensity of drought and flood events, along with associated imbalances and limitation of several soil nutrients. In the context ...
Greenhouse gas emissions and mitigation in rice agriculture
(Springer Nature, 2023-09-26)
Rice paddies supply half the global population with staple food, but also account for ~48% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from croplands. In this Review, we outline the characteristics of GHG emissions ...
Vibrio eleionomae sp. nov., isolated from shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) pond water
(Microbiology Society, 2023-05-11)
A novel Vibrio strain (CAIM 722T=SW9T=DSM 24596T) was isolated in 2003 from water of a shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) culture pond located in Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexico, and taxonomically characterized using ...
Ecological and evolutionary drivers of phenotypic and genetic variation in the European crabapple [Malus sylvestris (L.) Mill.], a wild relative of the cultivated apple
(Oxford University Press, 2023-05-06)
Background and Aims
Studying the relationship between phenotypic and genetic variation in populations distributed across environmental gradients can help us to understand the ecological and evolutionary ...
Computed tomography and predictive microbiology for non-invasive evaluation of the impact of dry-cured ham production process conditions on the behaviour of Listeria monocytogenes and Clostridium botulinum
(Elsevier, 2023-05-10)
Variability of salt content in dry-cured ham production can pose microbiological food safety issues, especially in salt reduced and/or non-nitrified products. In this regard, computed tomography (CT) ...
