Genetic diversity and structure of Rhizobium leguminosarum populations associated with clover plants are influenced by local environmental variables
(2018)The identification and conservation of indigenous rhizobia associated with legume plants and their application as biofertilizers is becoming an agricultural worldwide priority. However, little is known about the genetic ... -
The genus Campylobacter: Detection and isolation methods, species identification & typing techniques
(2019)Campylobacter is well recognized as the leading cause of bacterial foodborne diarrheal disease worldwide; while, poultry has been identified as a significant cause of campylobacter infection in humans. The C. jejuni has ... -
Isolation of oxamyl-degrading bacteria and identification of cehA as a novel oxamyl hydrolase gene
(2016)Microbial degradation is the main process controlling the environmental dissipation of the nematicide oxamyl. Despite that, little is known regarding the microorganisms involved in its biotransformation. We report the ... -

Molecular diversity and phylogeny of indigenous Rhizobium leguminosarum strains associated with Trifolium repens plants in Romania
(2018)The symbiotic nitrogen fixing legumes play an essential role in sustainable agriculture. White clover (Trifolium repens L.) is one of the most valuable perennial legumes in pastures and meadows of temperate regions. Despite ... -
MRSA infections among patients in the emergency department: A European multicentre study
(2017)Background: MRSA is a therapeutic concern worldwide, and a major agent of community-acquired skin and soft tissue infections (CA-SSTIs). While the US epidemiology of MRSA in CA-SSTIs is well described and reports the high ... -
Multilocus sequence typing (and phylogenetic analysis) of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli strains isolated from clinical cases in Greece
(2013)Background: The molecular epidemiology of C. jejuni and C. coli clinical strains isolated from children with gastroenteritis, was investigated using the multilocus sequence typing method (MLST). This analysis establishes ... -
