This study analyzes Streptococcus suis-associated disease in Irish pigs from 2010 to 2024, finding serotype 9 became more prevalent than serotype 2 or 1/2 and high resistance to tetracycline and erythromycin.

This study characterizes 110 Irish Streptococcus suis strains using whole-genome sequencing to explore population structure, prophages, and anti-viral defense mechanisms.

This study isolates and characterizes two novel phages infecting Streptococcus suis, revealing their genomic uniqueness and structural features relevant to phage therapy.

FANGORN provides a quality-checked database of full-length 16S-ITS-23S rRNA operons to improve microbial community classification and phylogenetic analysis.

The paper develops an explainable AI approach to predict skin-related phenotypes from leg skin microbiome data and identifies microbial composition changes linked to these traits.

This study investigates pseudogene expression in Sodalis glossinidius using multi-omic approaches, revealing significant transcriptional activity and suggesting their role in evolutionary adaptation.

This study shows that Sox17 expression in cardiac progenitor cells biases their fate toward the endocardium and regulates myocardium development through NOTCH signaling in mice.

This study uses long-read sequencing to analyze VSG diversity in T. brucei infections, revealing higher expressed diversity and early mosaic gene formation than previously observed.

The paper identifies hidden genetic and epigenetic variation in polyploid wheat that contributes to local adaptation and suggests using methylation and transposon diversity for breeding.

The paper introduces a modified sequence capture method that enables simultaneous analysis of genotype and methylation from the same genomic DNA sample in wheat.
