In the presence of a warmer climate, increase comparative abundance fungal plant pathogens. Many most aggressive pathogens are soil-borne fungi. Alternaria species threaten food security as chemical fungicides currently used against them mostly ineffective because acquired resistance to active compounds. Broadleaf plantain (Plantago major L.) and rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis extracts, obtai...

The cumulative effect of co-infections between pathogen pairs on the haematological response of East African Short-horn Zebu calves is described. Using a longitudinal study design a stratified clustered random sample of newborn calves were recruited into the Infectious Diseases of East African Livestock (IDEAL) study and monitored at 5-weekly intervals until 51 weeks of age. At each visit sampl...

OBJECTIVES To investigate Bartonella henselae as a potential human tick-borne pathogen and to evaluate its role as a coinfecting agent of the central nervous system in the presence of neuroborreliosis. DESIGN Case report study. SETTING A primary health care center in Flemington, NJ, and the Department of Research and Development at Medical Diagnostic Laboratories LLC in Mt Laurel, NJ. SUB...

Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis is a food-borne pathogen that causes salmonellosis in the United States. Bacteriophages are emerging as viable biocontrol agents against this pathogen. Here, we present the complete annotated genome sequence of Salmonella Enteritidis T4-like myophage Marshall, which has potential as a phage therapy agent.

Rickettsia slovaca is a tick-borne human pathogen that is associated with scalp eschars and neck lymphadenopathy known as tick-borne lymphadenopathy (TIBOLA) or Dermacentor-borne necrosis erythema and lymphadenopathy (DEBONEL). Originally, R. slovaca was described in Eastern Europe, but since recognition of its pathogenicity, human cases have been reported throughout Europe. European vertebrate...

Fusarium moniliforme is one of the major seed borne pathogen rice in Bangladesh that causes significant yield loss. To observe incidence and transmission this pathogen, farmers saved seeds from BADC were collected pathogens detected by blotter method. The prevalence F. varied according to locations seasons. highest 18% infection was recorded Boro Netrakona district lowest 2% Gazipur district. E...

Soil-borne pathogens are a key component of the belowground community because of the significance of their ecological and socio-economic impacts. However, very little is known about the complexity of their distribution patterns in natural systems. Here, we explored the patterns, causes and ecological consequences of spatial variability in pathogen abundance in Mediterranean forests affected by ...

Ixodes scapularis ticks feed on humans and other vertebrate hosts transmit several pathogens of public health concern. Tick saliva is a complex mixture bioactive proteins, lipids immunomodulators, such as I. sphingomyelinase ( Is SMase) ‐ like protein, an ortholog dermonecrotoxin SMase D found in the venom Loxosceles spp. spiders. modulates host immune response towards Th2, which suppresses Th1...

Background: Thalassemia syndromes are the most common genetic disorders in the world. They happen due to genetic defects in process of haemoglobin synthesis, and would be classified to many groups mainly α and β, based on the kind of defect. Anemia is the main clinical manifestation of this phenotype of disorder. In order to correct the chronic anemia in thalassaemic individuals, they may need ...
