Systematic mutagenesis assay promotes comprehension of the strand-bias laws for mutations induced by oxidative DNA damage

This study uses a mutagenesis assay to show that single DNA lesions from oxidative damage can trigger strand-biased mutations at specific DNA sites.

Ban on wild bird importation accelerated the spread of global viral outbreaks in parrots.

This study shows that a ban on wild bird imports in the EU increased captive parrot trade, facilitating the global spread of PaBV-4, a lethal parrot virus.
