Is There a Relationship Between Mating and Pathogenesis in Two Human Fungal Pathogens, Candida albicans and Candida glabrata?
(Springer, 22 April 2023)PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Human fungal pathogens are rapidly increasing in incidence and readily able to evade the host immune responses. Our ability to study the genetic behind this has been limited due to the apparent lack of ... -
The Candida glabrata Parent Strain Trap: How Phenotypic Diversity Affects Metabolic Fitness and Host Interactions
(American Society for Microbiology, 12 January 2023)Reference strains improve reproducibility by standardizing observations and methodology, which has ultimately led to important insights into fungal pathogenesis. However, recent investigations have highlighted significant ... -
Candida glabrata: A powerhouse of resistance
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 5 October 2023)Introduction. Candida glabrata (Nakoseomyces glabratus) is a haploid, budding yeast that causes opportunistic nosocomial infections and is garnering increasing attention in line with its changing epidemiological importance. ... -
Rare, long-distance dispersal underpins genetic connectivity in the pink sea fan, Eunicella verrucosa
(Wiley, 7 March 2024)Characterizing patterns of genetic connectivity in marine species is of critical importance given the anthropogenic pressures placed on the marine environment. For sessile species, population connectivity can be shaped by ... -
Genetic data confirm the presence of juvenile Alosa alosa in the estuary of the River Tamar
(Wiley, 8 March 2024)Within the UK, allis shad (Alosa alosa) are classified as Critically Endangered and are known to breed in only a single river, the Tamar. Despite evidence of spawning within the lower freshwater reaches of the river and ...
