The objective of this study was to determine physician perceptions regarding the importance of and comfort with the use of medical genetics and genomics in medical education and practice, as well as physician expectations for medical trainees. A retrospective survey was sent to physicians employed by a health system associated with a public medical...

This study aimed to investigate the presence of mecA and pvl genes in coagulase negative Staphylococcus (CNS) species isolated from bovine mastitis in smallholder dairy farms by using PCR. A total of 602 mammary quarter milk samples belong to 170 cows with mastitis were used. Identification of species was achieved by using the commercial Gram-posit...

Current clinical testing methods used to uncover the genetic basis of rare disease have inherent limitations, which can lead to causative pathogenic variants being missed. Within the rare disease arm of the 100 000 Genomes Project (100kGP), families were recruited under the clinical indication 'single autosomal recessive mutation in rare disease'. ...

Assigning functions to genes and learning how to control their expression are part of the foundation of cell biology and therapeutic development. An efficient and unbiased method to accomplish this is genetic screening, which historically required laborious clone generation and phenotyping and is still limited by scale today. The rapid technologica...

BACKGROUND: Melioidosis is a frequently fatal disease caused by an environmental bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei. The disease is prevalent in northeast Thailand, particularly among rice field farmers who are at risk of bacterial exposure through contact with contaminated soil and water. However, not all exposure results in disease, and infectio...

Bacterial leaf streak, bacterial blight, and black chaff caused by Xanthomonas translucens pathovars are major diseases affecting small grains. Xanthomonas translucens pv. translucens and X. translucens pv. undulosa are seedborne pathogens that cause similar symptoms on barley, but only X. translucens pv. undulosa causes bacterial leaf streak of wh...

Bacterial leaf streak (BLS) of wheat (Triticum aestivum), caused by Xanthomonas translucens pv. undulosa, is a disease of major concern in the Northern Great Plains. The host range for X. translucens pv. undulosa is relatively broad, including several small grains and perennial grasses. In Minnesota, X. translucens pv. undulosa was isolated from we...

Bacterial leaf streak (BLS) primarily affects barley and wheat and is mainly caused by the pathogens Xanthomonas translucens pv. translucens and X. translucens pv. undulosa, respectively. BLS is distributed globally and poses a risk to food security and the supply of malting barley. X. translucens pv. cerealis can infect both wheat and barley but i...

The intersection of human, animal, and ecosystem health at One Health interfaces is recognised as being of key importance in the evolution and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and represents an important, and yet rarely realised opportunity to undertake vital AMR surveillance. A working group of international experts in pathogen genomics, A...
