Penicillium digitatum causes green mold on citrus, resulting in severe postharvest fruit decay and economic losses in many citrus-producing areas of the world. Forty isolates of P. digitatum were cultured from citrus groves, packinghouses, and local markets in Taiwan, and
Studies on anthelmintic resistance in equine parasites do not include facultative parasites. Halicephalobus gingivalis is a free-living bacterivorous nematode and a known facultative parasite of horses with a strong indication of some form of tolerance to common anthelmintic drugs. This
We developed a rapid and simple method which combines a surface swab capture method and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy for recovery and quantitative detection of thiabendazole on apple surfaces. The whole apple surface was swabbed and the swab was vortexed in
The contribution of low-abundance microbial species to soil ecosystems is easily overlooked because there is considerable overlap between metabolic abilities (functional redundancy) of dominant and subordinate microbial species. Here we studied how loss of less abundant soil bacteria affected the
