We isolated 11 Siberian subtype tickborne encephalitis virus (TBEV) strains from Ixodes persulcatus ticks from a TBEV-endemic focus in the Kokkola Archipelago, western Finland. Thus I. persulcatus and the Siberian TBEV are reported in a focus considerably northwest of their previously known range in eastern Europe and Siberia.

We report a draft genome sequence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain B9741 belonging to Beijing B0/W lineage isolated from a HIV patient from Siberia, Russia. This clinical isolate showed MDR phenotype and resistance to isoniazid, rifampin, streptomycin and pyrazinamide. We analyzed SNPs associated with virulence and resistance. The draft genome sequence and annotation have been deposited at ...

This article is about the changes in climatic characteristics during cold period of hydrological year southeast Western Siberia over past 60 years and their impact on depth soil freezing dissected territories. It has been established that at regional level there an increase air temperature precipitation periods years. These have a direct soils dismembered territories Siberia. A stable tendency ...

Biodiversity is considered one of the most significant parameters for characterizing aquatic environments. The value species diversity taken into account when assessing ecological state and quality ecosystem. However, erroneous taxonomic identification distorts biodiversity signification and, consequently, prevents a clear understanding signals traits. In this study, we presented first data on ...

In the present paper, we describe several coleoid jaws discovered in lower Toarcian black shales, cropping out along Vilyui River (Yakutia, Russia). This is first record of a Lower Jurassic jaw outside Europe and report such finding from Mesozoic Siberia. The described demonstrate same mode preservation morphology as coeval previously reported Europe. Their Siberia became possible due to widesp...

This article reviews all available information on the species composition, current distribution, and origins of neobiotic (non-indigenous restoring lost range) freshwater mollusks in Siberia. An extensive literary search has been carried out, virtually existing publications recent decades findings mollusk new to Siberia were taken into account. We examined malacological collections some Russia’...
