In watermelon (Citrullus lanatus), lesion mimic is a rare, valuable trait that can be used by breeders for selection at early growth stages. In this study, we tested a seven-generation family to determine the inheritance and genetic basis of this trait. As revealed by analysis of the lesion mimic mutant clalm, this trait is controlled by a single dominant gene.

Genomic and evolutionary analysis of epidemic porcine hepatitis E virus (HEV) in the Tibetan Plateau was performed. Faecal samples were collected from 216 Tibetan pigs and 78 Tibetan Yorkshire (Large White) and 53 tissue samples from Yorkshire from the Linzhi City slaughterhouse. Total RNA was extracted from faeces and fragments of HEV open reading frame 2 (ORF2) detected by reverse transcription and nested polymerase chain reaction (RT-nPCR) and cloned.

Genomic insights into a multidrug-resistant Pandoraea apista clinical isolate carrying bla from China.

J Glob Antimicrob Resist

January 2025

Clinical Laboratory Department, Lishui People's Hospital, the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, Lishui, China. Electronic address:

Objectives: Pandoraea apista is notable for its multidrug resistance and is frequently identified in patients with cystic fibrosis or other chronic lung diseases, where it contributes to persistent lung infections. In this study, we describe a strain of P. apista harboring the bla, isolated from the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid of an inpatient in China.

Escherichia coli is a Gram-negative bacterium that is ubiquitous in animals and humans, with some strains capable of causing disease. The aim of this study was to perform a comparative genomic analysis of 2,732 generic E. coli isolates that were recovered from poultry samples collected from six regions in Canada as part of the National Microbiological Baseline study in Broiler Chicken.
