Bacterial content in mosquito larvae and adults is altered by dynamic interactions during life and varies substantially in variety and composition depending on mosquito biology and ecology. This study aimed to identify the microbiota in and and in water from their breeding sites in northeastern Thailand, a dengue-endemic area. Bacterial diversity in field-collected aquatic larvae and subsequently emerged adults of both species from several locations were examined. The microbiota was characterized based on analysis of DNA sequences from the V3-V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene and exhibited changes during development, from the mosquito larval stage to the adult stage. contained a significantly higher number of bacterial genera than did , except for the genus , which was present at significantly higher frequencies in male ( < 0.05). Our findings also indicate likely transstadial transmission from larva to adult and give better understanding of the microbial diversity in these mosquitoes, informing future control programs against mosquito-borne diseases.

This study investigated the potential of native arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) isolated from organic cassava fields as a biofertilizer, assessing their effects on cassava growth both alone and in combination with plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB). AMF spores were isolated from the rhizospheric soil of organic cassava field soils in northeastern Thailand and grouped into two consortia based on spore size: A45 and A75. Molecular identification revealed that both consortia were dominated by the genera Claroideoglomus and Entrophospora, with Paraglomus additionally present in the A45 consortium.

Hope and loneliness are significant psychosocial factors that greatly influence the quality of life (QoL) among older adults. However, few studies have examined these constructs simultaneously in rural aging populations in Southeast Asia. This study aimed to investigate the relationships between hope, loneliness, and QoL among community-dwelling older adults in northeastern Thailand.

Background: Various predisposing factors contribute to the emergence and dissemination of the multidrug-resistant (MDR) phenotype in and . Understanding these factors is crucial for guiding appropriate antimicrobial therapy and infection control strategies. This study investigated the predisposing factors contributing to the MDR characteristics of and isolated in a community hospital in northeastern Thailand.
