Amphenicol antibiotics, such as chloramphenicol (CHL), thiamphenicol (TAP), and florfenicol (Ff), are high-risk emerging pollutants. Their extensive usage in aquaculture, livestock, and poultry farming has led to an increase in bacterial antibiotic resistance and facilitated the spread of resistance genes. Yet, limited research has been conducted on the co-resistance of CHL, TAP, and Ff.

Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers collected 24 symptomatic wheat plants showing root rot, isolated different fungal species from the roots, and identified one significant pathogen, E. pedicellatum, through morphological examination.
  • * Molecular genetic identification was performed by extracting DNA from the fungal isolate and amplifying specific gene loci (tef1 and tub) for further analysis to understand the pathogen's characteristics better.

Article Synopsis
  • The study highlights the growing issue of multi-drug resistance in Gram-negative bacteria, specifically focusing on extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) in a pediatric hospital in Gaza.
  • A total of 158 clinical isolates were analyzed, with 93 (58.9%) found to be ESBL positive, indicating a significant prevalence particularly in urine and pus samples.
  • Whole-genome sequencing revealed that these ESBL-producing isolates carried multiple antibiotic resistance genes, underscoring the need for effective surveillance and treatment strategies.

First Report of Causing Fruit Crown Rot on Banana in Ecuador.

Plant Dis

August 2024

Universidad San Francisco de Quito, Agronomy, Diego de Robles y Pampite, Quito, Ecuador, ND;

Article Synopsis
  • Post-harvest diseases like fruit crown rot in bananas are mainly caused by two fungi: Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Lasiodiplodia theobromae.
  • A study conducted in El Oro province involved collecting banana hands and observing disease symptoms, where ten hands showed initial signs of fruit crown rot during postharvest processing.
  • Pathogenicity tests identified a single fungal isolate (C1) as responsible for causing disease in banana crowns, showing distinct mycelium growth and symptoms on inoculated fruits over a 20-day incubation period.
