Abstract: The apicomplexans are a group of obligate animal pathogens that include Plasmodium (malaria), Toxoplasma (toxoplasmosis), and Cryptosporidium (cryptosporidiosis) [1]. They are an extremely diverse and specious group but are nevertheless united by a distinctive suite of cytoskeletal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1099/mgen.0.001025
Abstract: Multipartite genomes, consisting of more than one replicon, have been found in approximately 10 % of bacteria, many of which belong to the phylum Proteobacteria. Many aspects of their origin and evolution, and the possible advantages… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/pre.70014
Abstract: Although asexual populations and species have been frequently reported in seaweeds, their nature (e.g. origins and distribution patterns relative to closely related sexual counterparts) remains largely unknown. This is likely because determining the species identity,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/biology11030476
Abstract: Simple Summary The incidence of the GJB2-p.(Arg143Trp) founder mutation in numerous populations of different ethnolinguistic and geographical backgrounds has generated interest on the provenance and age of the variant, which is predominantly associated with non-syndromic… read more here.
