Phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) can alleviate available phosphorus (AP)-deficiency without causing environmental pollution like chemical phosphate fertilizers.However, the research and application of PSB on the barren rocky soil is very rare.We screened six PSB from sweetpotato rhizosphere rocky soil.Among them, Ochrobactrum haematophilum FP1

Orientia (O.) tsutsugamushi, the causative agent of scrub typhus, is a neglected, obligate intracellular bacterium that has a prominent tropism for monocytes and macrophages.Complications often involve the lung, where interstitial Face mask pneumonia is a typical finding.The severity of scrub typhus in humans has been linked to altered plasma conce

Neisseria meningitidis is a human exclusive pathogen that can lead to invasive meningococcal disease or may be carried in the upper respiratory tract without symptoms.The relationship between carriage and disease remains poorly understood but it is widely accepted that decreasing carriage by immunization should lead to a reduction of invasive cases

Understanding of the role of body mass in structural-functional relationships is pressing, particularly because species losses often occur non-randomly with respect to body size.Our study examined the effects of dung beetle body mass on dung removal at two levels.First, we used the lab experiment to evaluate the efficiency of eight dung beetle spec

Humans have evolved along with the millions of microorganisms that populate their bodies.These microbes (1014) outnumber human cells by 10 to 1 and account for 3x 106 genes, more than ten times the 25,000 human genes.This microbial metagenome acts as our other genome and like our own genes, is unique to the individual.Recent international Foot File
