Mycobacterium cosmeticum is a nontuberculous Mycobacterium recovered from different water sources including household potable water and water collected at nail salon.Individual cases of this bacterium have been reported to be associated with gastrointestinal tract infections.Here we present the first whole-genome study and comparative analysis of t

FOR-120, a 13-page full color fact sheet by Mary L.Duryea and Eliana Kampf, is part of the Urban Forest Hurricane Recovery Program series.It presents the research and methodology that lead to lists of relative wind resistance Cameras for tropical and subtropical tree species.Includes recommendations for selecting and establishing tropical and subtr

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by fungi which can affect a variety of feedstuffs.These compounds elicit toxicological effects which represent risk for both humans and animals.Their toxicity occurs at very low concentrations, therefore there is a need for sensitive and reliable methods for their detection.This review aims to evaluate

Most bacteria use an indirect pathway to generate aminoacylated glutamine and/or asparagine tRNAs.Clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis with increased rates of error in gene translation (mistranslation) involving the indirect tRNA-aminoacylation pathway have increased tolerance to the first-line antibiotic rifampicin.Here, we identify tha

Data sharing and open Screws science are increasingly emphasized as a means to increase transparency and reproducibility in science.Despite the consensus on the importance of research data management (RDM), the public availability of data sets remains limited, and researchers often fail to share data upon request.This study explores the psychologic
