THE DISTINCTIVE EVOLUTION OF ORFX CLOSTRIDIUM PARABOTULINUM STRAINS AND THEIR BOTULINUM NEUROTOXIN TYPE A AND F GENE CLUSTERS IS INFLUENCED BY ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS AND GENE INTERACTIONS VIA MOBILE GENETIC ELEMENTS

The Distinctive Evolution of orfX Clostridium parabotulinum Strains and Their Botulinum Neurotoxin Type A and F Gene Clusters Is Influenced by Environmental Factors and Gene Interactions via Mobile Genetic Elements

Of the seven currently known botulinum neurotoxin-producing species of Clostridium, C.parabotulinum, or C.botulinum Group I, is the species associated with the majority of human botulism cases worldwide.Phylogenetic analysis of these bacteria reveals a diverse species with multiple genomic clades.The neurotoxins they produce are also diverse, with

OpenMP Implementation of a Novel Potential-Field-Data Source-Growth-Based Inversion Approach for 3D Salt Imaging in Deepwater Gulf of Mexico

Potential-field-data imaging of complex geological features in deepwater salt-tectonic regions in the Gulf of Mexico remains an open active research field.There is still a lack of resolution in seismic imaging methods below and in the surroundings of allochthonous salt bodies.In this Infuser Teapot work, we present a novel three-dimensional potenti

Review of environmental benefits and development of methodology for EUNIS habitat changes from nature-based solutions: Application to Denmark and the Netherlands

Nature-Based solutions (NBS) are the measures supported by natural processes that can adapt to changing climates and generate diverse social, economic, and environmental benefits.Recognising the potential for additional YLANGYLANG NBS benefits, and quantifying these benefits is essential as it encourages decision-makers to implement and scale-up NB
