Bacteriophages and genetic mobilization in sewage and faecally polluted environments
Bacteriophages are one of the most abundant entities on the planet and are present in high concentrations within humans and animals, mostly in the gut. Phages that infect intestinal bacteria are released by defecation and remain free in extra-intestinal environments, where they usually persist for longer than their bacterial hosts. Recent studies indicate that a large amount of the genetic info...
متن کاملBacteriophages in Escherichia coli antimicrobial resistance
The continuous battle between humans and the multitude of pathogenic microorganisms in the environment has sought relief in the form of antimicrobials. But the counter attack by pathogenic organisms in the form of multidrug resistance, acquired by various mechanisms such as transformation, transposition, conjugation and transduction is a major reason for concern. Bacteriophages have contributed...
متن کاملPredictive Ability of Statistical Genomic Prediction Methods When Underlying Genetic Architecture of Trait Is Purely Additive
A simulation study was conducted to address the issue of how purely additive (simple) genetic architecture might impact on the efficacy of parametric and non-parametric genomic prediction methods. For this purpose, we simulated a trait with narrow sense heritability h2= 0.3, with only additive genetic effects for 300 loci in order to compare the predictive ability of 14 more practically used ge...
متن کاملWhen every $P$-flat ideal is flat
In this paper, we study the class of rings in which every $P$-flat ideal is flat and which will be called $PFF$-rings. In particular, Von Neumann regular rings, hereditary rings, semi-hereditary ring, PID and arithmetical rings are examples of $PFF$-rings. In the context domain, this notion coincide with Pr"{u}fer domain. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for...
متن کاملMobilization of pathogenicity islands by Staphylococcus aureus strain Newman bacteriophages
Staphylococcus aureus pathogenicity islands (SaPIs) are mobile genetic elements that encode virulence factors and depend on helper phages for their mobilization. Such mobilization is specific and depends on the ability of a phage protein to inactivate the SaPI repressor Stl. Phage 80α can mobilize several SaPIs, including SaPI1 and SaPIbov1, via its Sri and Dut proteins, respectively. In many c...
