We have extended previously published sets of simple sequence repeat markers for selected to be polymorphic for the German-standard isolates of pathotypes P1, P2, P6, P8, and P18. These markers also complement the extensive published information on DNA polymorphisms for the mitogenomes of . This extended set of 35 markers representing 73 alleles differentiated 51 isolates from Europe and North America into three large, well-separated clusters and subclusters using dendrogram analysis, principal coordinates analysis (PCoA), and population substructure analysis using STRUCTURE 2.3.4 software. This suggests a limited number of introgressions of the wart disease pathogen into current potato growing areas, followed by recombination and admixture of populations through human activities. The new markers extend the published marker sets and are useful tools for future analyses of population structure and dynamics in , which are necessary to understand the biology of the interaction between the pathogen and its potato host and to develop future control strategies.

Bacteria of the genus are widely distributed in water bodies around the world. Some species have been identified as human pathogens causing intestinal and a variety of extraintestinal infections. In Germany, information on diseases caused by is rare, because infections are not notifiable in Germany.

, commonly known as stock, is a flowering plant species in the Brassicaceae popularly used as a cut flower due to its fragrant, long-lasting blooms. In September 2023, stock 'Iron White' plants displaying symptoms and signs of downy mildew were observed within a high tunnel in a cut flower farm in Franklin Co., OH.

Introduction: In 2022-2023, examinations were carried out for the presence of a pathogenic bacterium in ready-to-eat (RTE) vegetable products (sprouts and vegetable mixtures and salads) sold for immediate consumption in retail shops located in Lublin, eastern Poland. The identification of strains were performed according to the Polish Standard and accomplished with the Microgen Listeria-ID System.
Results: A high prevalence of infections was found in the unprocessed sprouts of plants belonging to the cabbage (Brassicaceae) family - kale (30.

Introduction And Objective: Parasites of the genus are intracellular protozoa that infect the leukocytes and erythrocytes of animals, causing theileriosis. The aim of the study was to examine the presence of spp. in adult ticks and their offspring in the Lublin region of eastern Poland.

Rodents are recognized as reservoirs for , playing a crucial role in maintaining the parasite's presence in the environment. Biomonitoring was conducted to assess the role of sylvatic rodents in maintaining , and to analyse the prevalence and seroprevalence of the parasite in seven wild rodent species. Rodents were collected in an open grassland study site located in northeastern Poland, and dissected.
