INFECTION WITH A NOVEL POLYMYCOVIRUS ENHANCES GROWTH, CONIDIATION AND SENSITIVITY TO UV-B IRRADIATION OF THE ENTOMOPATHOGENIC FUNGUS METARHIZIUM ANISOPLIAE

Metarhizium anisopliae is a well-studied entomopathogenic Laundry Station Remover fungus that is widely used in biological control programs.The presence of polymycoviruses in this fungus is common, but their effects on fungal development and stress tolerance are not well understood.In this study, we report the discovery of a novel double-stranded R

Abstract Background The Healthy Child Programme (HCP) in England, delivered by Health Visitors (HV) and Nursery Nurses (NN), aims to assess growth and development in pre-school age children.This qualitative analysis aimed to evaluate the perceptions and experiences of HCP providers and parents located in a London borough.Methods This qualitative an

Abstract The Creole cattle from Guadeloupe (GUA) are well adapted to the tropical environment.Its admixed genome likely played an important role in such adaptation.Here, we sought to detect genomic signatures of selection in the GUA genome.For this purpose, we sequenced 23 GUA individuals and combined our data with sequenced genomes of 99 animals r

Introduction:Thermothelomyces thermophilus, formerly known as Myceliophthora thermophila, is used in industry to produce lignocellulolytic enzymes and heterologous proteins.However, the transcriptional network driving the expression of these proteins remains elusive.As a first step to systematically uncover this network, we investigated growth, pro

This paper evaluates the possibility of analyzing the composition of high-quality copper scrap with X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF) instead of electrogravimetry combined with flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (EG+FAAS) method.The FENNEL SEED evaluation of the methods was performed on three real copper scraps, the composition of which were
