Pitaya canker disease, caused by , is the primary threat to pitaya cultivation, significantly compromising fruit quality and reducing yield. WRKY transcription factors are essential regulators in plant pathogen recognition and defense mechanisms, yet their specific roles in the development of pitaya canker disease remain largely unexplored. In this study, five genes (, , , , and ) associated with pitaya canker disease were identified through RNA-Seq analysis.

Drug resistance mechanisms in human pathogenic Candida species are constantly evolving. Over time, these species have developed diverse strategies to counter the effects of various drug classes, making them a significant threat to human health. In addition to well-known mechanisms such as drug target modification, overexpression, and chromosome duplication, Candida species have also developed permeability barriers to antifungal drugs through reduced drug import or increased efflux.

Extended spectrum -lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae, including and , pose a serious risk to human health because of antibiotic resistance. Wastewater serves as a reservoir for these bacteria, contributing to the evolution and transmission of antibiotic-resistant strains. The research aims to identify ESBL bacterium in wastewater samples from District Kohat.

Background The emergence of treatment-resistant species has highlighted the importance of antifungal susceptibility testing as it is difficult to determine therapeutics solely based on species identification. However, as compared to bacterial pathogens, antimicrobial susceptibility testing in fungi still remains underutilized in most clinical diagnostic microbiological services. The disc diffusion (DD) technique is reported to be easy and cost-effective and therefore can be easily incorporated as a routine method.

Diamide insecticides, specifically chlorantraniliprole (CHL), have been rising in popularity over the past decade, becoming one of the most widely used insecticide classes globally. These insecticides target the ryanodine receptor (RyR), primarily for control of lepidopteran agricultural pests. Field studies have revealed that some lepidopteran species have developed mutations where a methionine in a particular position (e.
