We studied the karyotype and chromosomal distribution of 18S rDNA clustered in nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) in (Kolenati, 1845), belonging to the subfamily Orsillinae (Lygaeidae). It is shown that this species has a karyotype with 2n = 22(18+mm+XY), previously known in only one of 24 studied species of the genus Dallas, 1852, characterized by a similar karyotype, 2n = 14(12+mm+XY). In , 18S loci are located on sex chromosomes, which is a previously unknown trait for this genus. Our results in a compilation with previous data revealed dynamic evolution of rDNA distribution in . It is concluded that molecular chromosomal markers detected by FISH contribute to a better understanding of the structure and evolution of the taxonomically complex genus .

A single reference genome does not fully capture species diversity. By contrast, a pangenome incorporates multiple genomes to capture the entire set of nonredundant genes in a given species, along with its genome diversity. New sequencing technologies enable researchers to produce multiple high-quality genome sequences and catalog diverse genetic variations with better precision.

complex is a nontuberculous that has been associated with a wide range of infections, including the skin and soft tissues, central nervous system, and pulmonary system. We discuss the case of a 66-year-old male with a history of coal worker's pneumoconiosis who had undergone a bilateral lung transplant eight years prior and presented with drainage from his right chest incision site. He underwent operative exploration and drainage of the wound.

Terrestrial actinomycetes in the genus have long been recognized as prolific producers of small-molecule natural products, including many clinically important antibiotics and cytotoxic agents. Although can also be isolated from marine environments, their potential for natural product biosynthesis remains underexplored. The MAR4 clade of largely marine-derived has been a rich source of novel halogenated natural products of diverse structural classes.
