- - Osteosclerotic metaphyseal dysplasia (OSMD) is a rare genetic disorder usually inherited in an autosomal-recessive pattern, primarily marked by issues like skeletal fractures, osteosclerosis, and occasionally developmental delays or seizures.
- - A 14-year-old Iranian girl from a consanguineous family exhibited severe symptoms of OSMD, including short stature and various bone deformities, prompting genetic analysis through whole-exome sequencing.
- - Researchers identified a novel mutation in the LRRK1 gene (c.G2785T, p.E929X), the first recorded in the Iranian population and only the third globally, indicating potential new clinical manifestations associated with OSMD.
The draft genome sequence of LMG 5327 (NCPPB 3146), the causative agent of ginger blotch in , is reported. Together with another mushroom pathogen, , it belongs to a distinct phylogenomic group.
