Article Abstract
We determined the genetic variability among water isolates of Campylobacter jejuni by using amplified-fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and multilocus sequence typing (MLST). Across a highly diverse collection of isolates, AFLP clusters did not correlate with MLST clonal complexes, suggesting that AFLP is not reliable for deciphering population genetic relationships and may be problematic for larger epidemiologic analyses.

Ticks are ectoparasites of major medical, veterinary and ecological importance, transmitting a wide range of pathogens to humans, companion animals and livestock. Understanding the population structure of ticks is essential for uncovering patterns of pathogen transmission, and population genetics provides a powerful method for this purpose. Tick population studies are uniquely challenging as their biology is shaped by complex interactions between hosts, microbiome and environmental factors.

DNA methylation changes linked to Cu ions in the induction medium affect reprogramming microspores from gametophytic to sporophytic path. Alternations in S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM), glutathione (GSH), or β-glucans and changes in DNA methylation in regenerants obtained under different in vitro culture conditions suggest a crucial role of biochemical pathways.

Sporotrichosis, a neglected mycosis caused by Sporothrix species, has shown notable increases in prevalence and geographic spread, driven largely by the rise of cat-transmitted cases. Robust molecular tools are crucial for tracking this emergence. This study compared the performance of four genotyping methods-calmodulin (CAL) sequencing, amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), simple sequence repeat (SSR), and T3B-random amplified polymorphic DNA (T3B-RAPD)-in differentiating Sporothrix, determining intraspecific diversity, and recognizing genotypes, using a collection of 53 isolates.

Avian Infectious Bronchitis Virus, has become one of the most problematic causes of economic losses in poultry farms. To effectively control the virus, monitoring and surveillance of circulating virus strains in poultry farms is inevitable. Internal organ samples of broilers with clinical signs of infectious bronchitis and two samples of the commonly used vaccine strains (4/91 and H120) in Iranian poultry flocks were used for amplification of a 1.
