Brucellosis is highly epidemic in China. Of the six classical species, Brucella melitensis and biovar 1 are the most represented species and biovar that cause human brucellosis in China. Here, we report the genome sequence of Brucella melitensis strain 133, a strain of biovar 1 of sequence type 32.

Caprine brucellosis, mainly caused by Brucella melitensis, remains a significant zoonotic threat worldwide, affecting animal productivity, welfare, and public health. This study aimed to estimate the true prevalence (TP) and spatial distribution of antibodies to Brucella spp. among goat populations in Hubei Province, China.

Tomato is an important crop worldwide, but groundnut bud necrosis virus (GBNV) often hampers its growth. This study investigates the antiviral potential of bacterial endophytes, including CNEB54, CNEB4, CNEB26, and BAVE5 against GBNV, as well as their ability to enhance immunity and growth in tomato. All four bacterial isolates demonstrated a significant delay in GBNV symptom development 10 days post-inoculation, with disease incidence ranging from 18% to 36% compared to 84% in control.

Article Synopsis
- A 69-year-old woman, who had hip surgery 20 years prior, reported thigh pain and a limp for the last year.
- An X-ray showed issues with her hip prosthesis, leading to a one-stage revision surgery due to her poor heart health, after which infection was detected.
- After receiving antibiotics for six weeks, her condition improved significantly, highlighting the importance of addressing late-onset prosthetic joint infections in areas where they are common.

Electronic address:
Brucella relies on the type IV secretion system (T4SS) to establish replication niches within host cells. However, the Brucella T4SS effectors and their functions have not been fully identified. In this study, we investigated the function of Brucella RS15060, a novel T4SS effector discovered in our previous study, on the bacterial biological characteristics and pathogenesis by construction of the gene deletion and complementation strains.
