Isolation, characterization and therapeutic evaluation of a new Acinetobacter virus Abgy202141 lysing .

is an opportunistic pathogen that easily resists currently available antibiotics. Phages are considered alternative therapeutic agents to conventional antibiotics for the treatment of multidrug-resistant bacteria. We isolated an Acinetobacter virus Abgy202141 from underground sewage in a residential area of Guiyang City in China.

Integrated genetic analysis of leaf blast resistance in upland rice: QTL mapping, bulked segregant analysis and transcriptome sequencing.

Elite upland rice cultivars have the advantages of less water requirement along with high yield but are usually susceptible to various diseases. Rice blast caused by is the most devastating disease in rice. Identification of new sources of resistance and the introgression of major resistance genes into elite cultivars are required for sustainable rice production.
