Three novel crayfish-infecting nudiviruses from crayfish in North America represent the first genomic confirmation of nudiviruses in crayfish: Faxonius propinquus nudivirus (FpNV), Faxonius rusticus nudivirus (FrNV), and Faxonius virilis nudivirus (FvNV). Histopathology and electron microscopy revealed nuclear infections, including nuclear hypertrophy in hepatopancreatic epithelial cells and the presence of membrane-bound bacilliform virions. Metagenomic sequencing resulted in complete circular genome assembly, and phylogenetic analyses (based on nudivirus core genes) placed these viruses within the unofficial Epsilonnudivirus genus.

Structural and phylogenetic analysis of the spike glycoprotein highlighted that the last variants, annotated as omicron, have about 30 mutations compared to the initial version reported in China, while the delta variant, supposed to be the omicron ancestor, shows only 7 mutations. Moreover, the five omicron variants were isolated between November 2021 and January 2022, and the last variant BA.2.

In the wake of COVID-19 social distancing recommendations, social media assumed a central - if unofficial - role in ensuring that individuals remained informed and connected throughout the pandemic. Yet while research shows that social media can be an effective platform for connecting individuals socially and fostering social support exchanges, both the platforms and the support exchanged therein have been mired in considerable controversies regarding their use as a tool for positive social engagement. The goal of this study is to qualitatively evaluate longitudinal changes to social media engagement during social distancing recommendations and orders to shelter-in-place.

Most efforts to understand the biology of Vibrio cholerae have focused on a single group, the pandemic-generating lineage harboring the strains responsible for all known cholera pandemics. Consequently, little is known about the diversity of this species in its native aquatic environment. To understand the differences in the V.

In the era of the rapid development of today's Internet, people often feel overwhelmed by vast official news streams or unofficial self-media tweets. To help people obtain the news topics they care about, there is a growing need for systems that can extract important events from this amount of data and construct the evolution procedure of events logically into a story. Most existing methods treat event detection and evolution as two independent subtasks under an integrated pipeline setting.
