- - Diaporthales is a group of sac fungi that includes important plant pathogens, saprobes, and endophytes, which can thrive in diverse ecosystems worldwide, but many species are still unidentified.
- - The study aimed to identify and classify new species of Diaporthales by combining morphological features and molecular analyses, improving our understanding of their taxonomy.
- - Researchers discovered three new species from fungal samples found on dead branches and diseased leaves in Fujian Province, China, which enhances knowledge of diversity within this fungal order.
Introduction: is a major pathogen implicated in healthcare-associated infections. Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and carbapenemase-producing isolates are a public health concern. This study investigated the existence of some ESBL and carbapenemase genes among clinical isolates of in Southwest Nigeria and additionally determined their circulating clones.
