Introduction Immunosuppressive diseases, such as chicken infectious anemia virus (CIAV), pose a major threat to livestock farming due to reduced disease resistance, poor vaccine response, and overall poor productivity. CIAV, recognized globally for decades, shows a significant genetic diversity, but its implications remain underexplored. Methods Th...

Introduction The soil-borne vascular fungus Verticillium dahliae is a phytopathogenic fungus known to attack cotton crop causing Verticillium wilt. In previous study, we identified a pantothenate transporter gene (VdPAT1) in V. dahliae which can be induced by root exudates from a susceptible cotton variety. Methods In this study, we generated VdPAT...

Introduction Marine hydrothermal systems (MHS) are considered extreme environments due to their unique physicochemical conditions, which are challenging for most organisms. This study investigates the microbial communities in three MHS sites in Baja California Sur, Mexico. Methods Sediment samples were collected in two seasons of the year: rainy an...

Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs), including root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.), cyst nematodes (Heterodera and Globodera spp.), and other economically significant nematode species, pose severe threats to global agriculture. These nematodes employ diverse survival strategies, such as dormancy in cysts or robust infective juvenile stages. Consequ...

Introduction The gut microbiota significantly influences the host’s production performance and health status, with different gastrointestinal tissues exhibiting functional diversity reflected in their microbial diversity. Methods In this study, five adult male Tianzhu white yaks (4.5 years old) were selected and fed under the same nutritional condi...

Donkeys, as single-stomach herbivores, have a complex and diverse microbial community in their digestive tracts. The intestinal bacterial community is crucial for maintaining intestinal homeostasis, as well as the host’s overall nutrition and health. However, research on donkey gut microbes is relatively limited, particularly regarding the microbia...

Ruminants excrete both undigested and excess consumed nitrogen (N) through feces and urine, which results in the waste of feed protein and environmental pollution. This study aims to screen bacteria to identify strains with potential to improve nitrogen utilization in the rumen. In a tube screening test, when 30 mmol/L ammonium sulfate was added as...

Helicobacter species infecting the stomachs of dogs and cats are potentially pathogenic and have been isolated from patients with gastric diseases. In the present study conducted in Japan, among the nine Helicobacter strains that we isolated from dogs and cats, NHP19-003T from a dog, and strains NHP19-012T and NHP21-005T from cats were identified t...

Multi-drug-resistant bacteria pose a significant global threat to public health, particularly among patients with critical nosocomial infection. Notably, the genera Klebsiella and Raoultella are of concern due to their association with human infections and the transfer of antibiotic-resistance genes. Phage therapy has recently garnered attention as...
