Article Abstract

A molecular survey of red algae collected by technical divers and submersibles from 90 m in the mesophotic zone off the coast of Bermuda revealed three species assignable to the Kallymeniaceae. Two of the species are representative of recently described genera centered in the western Pacific in Australia and New Zealand, Austrokallymenia and Psaromenia and the third from the Mediterranean Sea and the eastern Atlantic, Nothokallymenia. A phylogenetic analysis of concatenated mitochondrial (COI-5P) and chloroplast (rbcL) genes, as well as morphological characteristics, revealed that two are shown to be new species with distant closest relatives (N. erosa and Psaromenia septentrionalis), while the third represents a deep water western Atlantic species now moved to an Australasian genus (A. westii).

Widely Distributed Pigeon Paramyxovirus Sub-Genotypes Pose a Risk to Immunocompromised Humans.

Introduction: Pigeon paramyxovirus type 1 (PPMV-1) is an antigenic variant of Avian Orthoavulavirus 1 (AOAV-1) (Newcastle disease virus) with a global distribution that causes lethal infections in pigeon and dove species. AOAV-1's infecting humans normally cause mild, self-limiting conjunctivitis, but since 2003, PPMV-1 has been associated with an increased number of severe and lethal respiratory and neurological infections in immunocompromised persons in the Netherlands, the USA, France, China and Australia.

Methods: PPMV-1's isolated from free-living pigeons and doves across South Africa from 2012 to 2024 were sequenced using conventional or next generation technologies.

Blowflies are important to estimate the postmortem interval (PMI), since they are the first to interact with the carcass. However, depending on the decomposition stage, only pupae can be found. A method that has currently been suggested is the use of cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) in forensically important fly species to aid in estimating PMI; however, studies from the pupal stage are rare.

Potato early blight is a prevalent disease that significantly impacts potato cultivation. Pydiflumetofen, a new succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor developed by Syngenta, has been registered for use on multiple crops in China. However, its resistance risk and mechanisms in Alternaria tenuissima and Alternaria alternata are still poorly understood.

Managing Euschistus heros is increasingly challenging due to insecticide resistance, limited available molecules, and environmental and health concerns. Here, we synthesized and evaluated mucochloric acid derivatives as alternative tools for controlling this pest. We assessed the selectivity of these molecules toward the pollinators bees Apis mellifera and Partamona helleri and conducted in silico predictions for the interactions of these molecules with receptors for γ-aminobutyric acid (GABARs) and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), and the enzyme acetylcholinesterases (AChE) of E.
