Methanobacterium electrotrophus strain YSL was isolated from enriched microbial aggregates from a coastal riverine sediment sample from Shandong Province, China. The genome of YSL was sequenced with the PacBio Sequel platform and contained three plasmids in addition to the chromosome. A total of 2,521 protein-coding genes and 58 RNA genes were predicted.

Prodrugs have been explored as an alternative to conventional chemotherapy; however, their target specificity remains limited. The tumor microenvironment harbors a range of microorganisms that potentially serve as tumor-targeting vectors for delivering prodrugs. In this study, we harness bacteria-cancer interactions native to the tumor microbiome to achieve high target specificity for prodrug delivery.

Root-knot nematodes (RKNs) are distributed globally, including in agricultural fields contaminated by heavy metals (HM), and can cause serious crop damages. Having a method that could control RKNs in HM-contaminated soil while limit HM accumulation in crops could provide significant benefits to both farmers and consumers. In this study, we showed that the nematophagous fungus Purpureocillium lavendulum YMF1.

Breast cancer (BC) is the leading cause of cancer-related death in women worldwide. Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive form of BC being with the worst prognosis and the worst survival rates. There is no specific pharmacological target for the treatment of TNBC; conventional therapy includes the use of non-specific chemotherapy that generally has a poor prognosis.

The (co)variance components and corresponding phenotypic and genetic parameters for growth traits and wool traits of economic importance were estimated in the Alpine Merino sheep population maintained at Gansu Provincial Sheep Breeding Technology Extension Station in northwestern China. Data from a maximum of 49,474 animals sired by 526 rams and born from 22,531 ewes over 20 years from 2000 to 2019 were used in this study. Birth type, age of dam, birth year, sex and/or management group, and age at measurement were initially fitted as fixed effects in an animal model with various random effects.
