Nematicidal, Acaricidal and Plant Growth-Promoting Activity of Endophytic Strains and Identification of Genes Associated with These Biological Activities in the Genomes.

In the present study, the nematicidal and acaricidal activity of three endophytic strains isolated from nodules was evaluated. The percentages of mortality of NOD4 against was 81.2%, and against 70.

Near-Full-Length Genome Sequences Representing an Event of Zooanthroponotic Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 Lineage B.1.189 in Mexico during 2020.

Here, we report three near-full-length genome sequences of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) obtained in Mexico City, Mexico, during the pandemic of coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) in 2020, representing a zooanthroponotic transmission event between humans and a dog. All three genomes belong to the B.1.

Evolutionary Dynamics of Mexican Lineage H5N2 Avian Influenza Viruses.

We have demonstrated for the first time a comprehensive evolutionary analysis of the Mexican lineage H5N2 avian influenza virus (AIV) using complete genome sequences ( = 189), from its first isolation in 1993 until 2019. Our study showed that the Mexican lineage H5N2 AIV originated from the North American wild bird gene pool viruses around 1990 and is currently circulating in poultry populations of Mexico, the Dominican Republic, and Taiwan. Since the implementation of vaccination in 1995, the highly pathogenic AIV (HPAIV) H5N2 virus was eradicated from Mexican poultry in mid-1995.

Draft Genome Sequence of a Multidrug- and Colistin-Resistant -Producing Escherichia coli Isolate from a Swine Farm in Mexico.

A colistin-resistant -carrying strain, RC2-007, was isolated from a swine farm in Mexico. This extraintestinal and uropathogenic strain of belongs to serotype O89:H9 and sequence type 744. Assembly and annotation resulted in a 4.

Hap2, a novel gene in Babesia bigemina is expressed in tick stages, and specific antibodies block zygote formation.

Background: Bovine babesiosis is a tick-borne disease caused by the protozoan parasites of the genus Babesia. In their host vector, Babesia spp. undergo sexual reproduction.
