SEROPREVALENCE OF SARS-COV-2: INSIGHTS INTO THE EPIDEMIOLOGY OF THE PANDEMIC


Heterologous production of the adhesin LIC13411 from pathogenic Leptospira facilitates binding of non-pathogenic Leptospira in vitro and in vivo

Leptospirosis is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide.Disease severity ranges from asymptomatic colonization to widespread hemorrhage and multiorgan dysfunction.The causative agents, Leptospira spp., are zoonotic Gram-negative spirochetes.One important step in pathogenesis is binding of bacterial adhesins to host components.Previ

Optimized Use of Low-Depth Genotyping-by-Sequencing for Genomic Prediction Among Multi-Parental Family Pools and Single Plants in Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.)

Ryegrass single plants, bi-parental family pools, and multi-parental family pools are often genotyped, based on allele-frequencies using genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) assays.GBS assays can be performed at low-coverage depth to reduce costs.However, reducing the coverage depth leads to a higher proportion of missing data, and Elevation Assembly lea
