Almond breeding is increasingly focusing on kernel quality. However, unlike other agronomic traits, the genetic basis of physical and chemical kernel quality traits has been poorly investigated. To address this gap, we conducted a QTL mapping of these traits to enhance our understanding of their genetic control.

- This study examines how different Salmonella serovars survive when exposed to organic acid antimicrobials on raw pork meat, focusing on lactic acid (LA) and peracetic acid (PAA).
- The research found that both the type of Salmonella serovar and the concentration of antimicrobials significantly influenced survival rates, with PAA at 400 ppm being the most effective in reducing Salmonella levels.
- Specifically, S. Dublin was found to be more susceptible to PAA treatments, while S. Newport showed a higher resistance, highlighting the importance of understanding serovar behavior for better pathogen control in the meat industry.
Background: The optimal strategy to prevent reintubation in obese patients remains uncertain. We aimed to determine whether noninvasive ventilation (NIV) with active humidification is superior to high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) in preventing reintubation in obese patients at intermediate risk.
Methods: Randomized controlled trial in two intensive care units in Spain (June 2020‒June 2021).
is a bacterial pathogen of considerable significance in public health, capable of inducing a diverse range of infectious diseases. One of the most notorious mechanisms used by to survive and colonize the site of infection is its ability to form biofilms. Diflunisal, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), is a known inhibitor of the Agr system in , which is key in regulating biofilm formation.

These approaches reduce infection times, promote reproducibility, and enable a rapid evaluation of plant-pathogen interactions. As a result, these systems have become essential in breeding programs aimed at developing plant resistance to diseases.
