AI Article Synopsis
- - A variety of highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses, particularly subtype H5 clade 2.3.4.4b, have led to recurring outbreaks in Germany.
- - In November 2023, four new highly pathogenic avian influenza genotypes emerged after mixing with less harmful virus strains.
- - These new genotypes replaced genotype BB, which had been the dominant strain in Europe since 2022.
Article Abstract
Several subtypes and many different genotypes of highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses of subtype H5 clade 2.3.4.4b have repeatedly caused outbreaks in Germany. Four new highly pathogenic avian influenza genotypes emerged in November 2023 after reassortment with low pathogenicity precursors, replacing genotype BB, which had dominated in Europe since 2022.

Changes in the copy number of large genomic regions, termed copy number variations (CNVs), contribute to important phenotypes in many organisms. CNVs are readily identified using conventional approaches when present in a large fraction of the cell population. However, CNVs that are present in only a few genomes across a population are often overlooked but important; if beneficial under specific conditions, a de novo CNV that arises in a single genome can expand during selection to create a larger population of cells with novel characteristics.

In the human pathogen , the causative agent of whooping cough, hundreds of sRNAs have been identified, but their roles in biology are mostly unknown. Here we characterize a Hfq-dependent sRNA (S17), whose level is dramatically higher in the virulence (Bvg ) mode.

, labeled an urgent threat by the CDC, shows significant resilience to treatments and disinfectants via biofilm formation, complicating treatment/disease management. The inconsistencies in biofilm architecture observed across studies hinder the understanding of its role in pathogenesis. Our novel in vitro technique cultivates biofilms on gelatin-coated coverslips, reliably producing multilayer biofilms with extracellular polymeric substances (EPS).

Dental caries is a highly prevalent chronic condition globally. In recent years, scientists have turned to natural compounds such as plant extracts as an alternative to address concerns related to biofilm-mediated disease transmission, increasing bacterial resistance, and the adverse impacts of antibiotics. Consequently, this study investigated the antimicrobial properties of ethanolic, hydroethanolic, and aqueous extracts of L.

Apples are one of the most valued tree fruit crops around the world. Currently, a few highly popular and economically successful apple cultivars dominate the commercial production and serve as main genetic contributors to the development of new apple cultivars. This limited level of genetic diversity grown as a clonally propagated monoculture renders the apple industry vulnerable to the wide range of weather events, pests, and pathogens.
