We examined metabolic profiles of acetone and butanol extracts obtained from the leaves of 18 seedlings of the Bulgarian wine-making cultivar Storgozia. The acetone extracts contained the components from the leaf surface, while the butanol extracts were enriched with polar components from inside the leaf tissue. The leaves displayed different degrees of resistance and susceptibility to the etiological agent downy mildew, Plasmopara viticola. Based on the statistically significant correlations (P<0.05) between the GC-MS data of the identified metabolites and the estimated leaf resistances, 10 individual components were proposed as possible biomarkers for the downy mildew resistance and susceptibility in grapevine. All were found in the butanol extracts, and can be considered to form two groups: compounds with high correlations (r=+/-0.50 to +/-1.00) - 3-hydroxybutanoic acid, 2,3,4-trihydroxybutanoic acid, 2,3,4-trihydroxybutanoic acid (isomer), hexadecanoic acid, 3-hydroxyhexanoic acid and myo-inositol, and compounds with moderate correlations (r=+/-0.30 to +/-0.49) hydroxybutanedioic acid, alanine, glutamine, arabinoic acid and aldohexoses. Among them, the more polar compounds were related to sensitivity, and only hexadecanoic and the monohydroxycarboxylic acids were related to resistance in grapevine.

This study aimed to identify splicing quantitative trait loci (cis-sQTL) in Nelore cattle muscle tissue and explore the involvement of spliced genes (sGenes) in immune system-related biological processes. Genotypic data from 80 intact male Nelore cattle were obtained using SNP-Chip technology, while RNA-Seq analysis was performed to measure gene expression levels, enabling the integration of genomic and transcriptomic datasets. The normalized expression levels of spliced transcripts were associated with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) through an analysis of variance using an additive linear model with the MatrixEQTL package.

Background: Carbapenem-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria, including Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) and Carbapenem-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA), are common causes of infections in intensive care units (ICUs) in Italy.
Objective: This prospective observational study evaluated the epidemiology, management, microbiological characterization, and outcomes of hospital-acquired CRE or CRPA infections treated in selected ICUs in Italy.
Methods: The study included patients with hospital-acquired infections due to CRE and CRPA treated in 20 ICUs from June 2021 to February 2023.

Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Internal Medicine, National Taiwan University Hospital, 7 Chung-Shan South Road, Taipei, 100, Taiwan.
Background: Nemonoxacin is a new quinolone with an antibacterial efficacy against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Certain sequence types (STs) have been emerging in Taiwan, including fluoroquinolone-resistant ST8/USA300. It's an urgent need to determine nemonoxacin susceptibility against ST8/USA300 and other emerging lineages, if any.
