DOI: 10.1007/s11686-020-00276-1
Abstract: Purpose Bacteria of the genus Bartonella are obligate parasites of vertebrates. Their distribution range covers almost the entire world, from the Americas to Europe and Asia. Many Bartonella species use rodents as reservoirs, and while… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/09553002.2022.2087927
Abstract: Abstract Purpose Transcriptional activity of genes related to ionizing radiation responses in chronically irradiated plant populations at radioactively contaminated territories can be a cost-effective and precise approach for stress response evaluation. However, there are limits… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0263600
Abstract: Although soil organisms are essential for ecosystem function, the impacts of radiation on soil biological activity at highly contaminated sites has been relatively poorly studied. In April-May 2016, we conducted the first largescale deployment of… read more here.
