“…Animals infected with L. martiniquensis and L. orientalis developed temporary erythema and dry lesions at the site of inoculation, respectively, but were not infectious to sand flies. Guinea pigs infected by L. macropodum and Leishmania sp. from Ghana showed no signs of infection during experiments, were not infectious to sand flies and leishmanial DNA was not detected in their tissue samples at the end of experiments at week 12 post-inoculation. …”

“…In this study, we selected 13 candidate reference genes from the transcriptome data of G. littoralis—serine/threonine-protein phosphatase PP2A (PP2A), polyubiquitin 10 (UBQ10), actin (ACT), elongation factor 1-α (EF1-α), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), α-tubulin (α-TUB), β-tubulin (β-TUB), polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 1 (PTBP1), expressed protein 1 (EXP1), expressed protein 2 (EXP2), TIP41-like (TIP41), SAND family (SAND), and cyclophilin 2 (CYP2), and used qRT-PCR to analyse their expression levels in roots of G. littoralis treated with NaCl, polyethylene glycol (PEG), abscisic acid (ABA), and methyl jasmonate (MeJA), as well as in various organs of G. littoralis. …”

“…SIMPLE SUMMARY: Leishmaniosis caused by Leishmania infantum is a parasitic disease of people and animals transmitted by sand fly vectors. Although dogs in south and central Italy are most affected, in recent decades feline leishmaniosis (FeL) has become an emerging disease. …”

“…Most simulations predict net annual sand transport toward the WNW, which is generally consistent with aeolian observations, and peak sand fluxes in the first half of summer, with the weakest fluxes around winter solstice due to opposition between the global circulation and daytime upslope winds. …”

“…The physicochemical factors related to the diversity and distribution of the bacterial community were comprehensively analyzed, such as pH, electrical conductivity, soil organic matter, C/N and sand, and the results indicated that Minqin was more suitable for the growth of N. tangutorum, which should be one of most important sand-fixing plants in Minqin. …”

“…As such, Hamelin Pool can be seen as a microbial carbonate factory, with construction by lithifying microbial mats forming microbialites, and erosion and degradation of weakly lithified microbial mats resulting in extensive production of sand-sized micritic sediments. Insight from these modern examples may have direct applicability for recognition of sedimentary deposits of microbial origin in the geologic record.…”
