DO ORGANIC, CONVENTIONAL, AND INTENSIVE APPROACHES IN LIVESTOCK FARMING HAVE AN IMPACT ON THE CIRCULATION OF INFECTIOUS AGENTS? A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW, FOCUSED ON DAIRY CATTLE

M. Pajoro, M. Brilli, G. Pezzali, L. H. Kramer, P. Moroni, C. Bandi

This study systematically reviews dairy cattle farming systems and finds no difference in infectious agent circulation but notes higher AMR prevalence in conventional farms compared to organic ones.

Phylogenomics reveals that Asaia symbionts from insects underwent convergent genome reduction, preserving an insecticide-degrading gene

F. Comandatore, C. Damiani, A. Cappelli, P. E. Martins Ribolla, G. Gasperi, F. Gradoni, G. Capelli, A. Piazza, F. Montarsi, M. V. Mancini, P. Rossi, I. Ricci, C. Bandi, G. Favia

This paper analyzes Asaia bacterial genomes from mosquitoes and medflies, showing convergent genome reduction and the presence of a pyrethroid hydrolase gene, suggesting its role in insecticide resistance.

Gene composition as a potential barrier to large recombinations in the bacterial pathogen Klebsiella pneumoniae

F. Comandatore, D. Sassera, S. C. Bayliss, E. Scaltriti, S. Gaiarsa, X. Cao, A. Gales, R. Saito, S. Pongolini, S. Brisse, E. Feil, C. Bandi

This study analyzes 834 Klebsiella pneumoniae genomes to investigate the frequency, distribution, and dynamics of large recombination events, finding that gene composition influences the success of such events.
