The E. coli strains harboring the polyketide synthase (pks) island encode the genotoxin colibactin, a secondary metabolite reported to have severe implications for human health and for the progression of colorectal cancer. The present study involves whole-genome-wide comparison and phylogenetic analysis of pks harboring E.

Complete datasets of genetic variants are key to biodiversity genomic studies. Long-read sequencing technologies allow the routine assembly of highly contiguous, haplotype-resolved reference genomes. However, even when complete, reference genomes from a single individual may bias downstream analyses and fail to adequately represent genetic diversity within a population or species.

The citrus red mite (CRM), Panonychus citri (McGregor) (Acari: Tetranychidae), a worldwide pest chiefly infesting Citrus plants, has spread from Southern China to Northern China. Little information is known about the population performance of CRM on the plants except for citrus trees and pear trees. In order to evaluate the extent of damage might caused by CRM to the fruit trees cultivated in Northern China, the performance of CRM on four Rosaceae species, including three main fruit tree species (pear-Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai cv.

Purpose: This systematic review analyzes economic evaluations of newborn screening for congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) infection to identify key factors influencing cost-effectiveness and differences in methodological approaches.
Methods: Following a pre-registered PROSPERO protocol (CRD42023441587), we conducted a comprehensive literature search across multiple databases on July 4, 2024. The review included both full economic evaluations (cost and outcomes) and partial economic evaluations (cost only).

Acquired immune deficiency syndrome caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a serious infectious disease because of its' high genetic variability. Nowadays, homosexual contact has become the most predominant transmission route in Hebei province, China, leading to the emergence of novel HIV-1 recombinant forms. The neighbor-joining (N-J) phylogenetic trees were constructed using MEGA 6.
