Diversity, Composition, and Specificity of the Bacteriome.

(Linnaeus, 1758) (Hemiptera, Aphrophoridae) was recently classified as a pest due to its ability to act as a vector of the phytopathogen . This insect has been reported to harbour several symbiotic bacteria that play essential roles in health and fitness. However, the factors driving bacterial assemblages remain largely unexplored.

Differences in the Endophytic Microbiome of Olive Cultivars Infected by across Seasons.

The dynamics of infections in the context of the endophytic microbiome was studied in field-grown plants of the susceptible and resistant olive cultivars Kalamata and FS17. Whole metagenome shotgun sequencing (WMSS) coupled with 16S/ITS rRNA gene sequencing was carried out on the same trees at two different stages of the infections: In Spring 2017 when plants were almost symptomless and in Autumn 2018 when the trees of the susceptible cultivar clearly showed desiccations. The progression of the infections detected in both cultivars clearly unraveled that tends to occupy the whole ecological niche and suppresses the diversity of the endophytic microbiome.

Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase-Akt pathway in negative-stranded RNA virus infection: a minireview.

The PI3K/Akt signalling pathway is a crucial signalling cascade that regulates transcription, protein translation, cell growth, proliferation, cell survival, and metabolism. During viral infection, viruses exploit a variety of cellular pathways, including the well-known PI3K/Akt signalling pathway. Conversely, cells rely on this pathway to stimulate an antiviral response.
