Recent studies have shown that persistent SARS-CoV-2 infections in immunocompromised patients can trigger the accumulation of an unusual high number of mutations with potential relevance at both biological and epidemiological levels. Here, we report a case of an immunocompromised patient (non-Hodgkin lymphoma patient under immunosuppressive therapy) with a persistent SARS-CoV-2 infection (marked by intermittent positivity) over at least 6 months. Viral genome sequencing was performed at days 1, 164, ...

Biological silage additives can assist in making silages by promoting a rapid reduction in silage pH and preventing aerobic deterioration. The current Lactobacillus buchneri on the market produces acetic acid slowly and identifying strains that would improve aerobic stability earlier in the ensiling process would be helpful. This study aimed to investigate the changes in microbial population, dry matter (DM) recovery and fermentation profile of maize silage with or without inoculation with L. buchneri ...

This study compared the photosynthetic responses of two clones (RRIM600 and FX3864) of the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis L.) subjected to drought stress. This stress was imposed by complete removal of watering until the leaf water potential (Ψw) reached critical values, which occurred at 38 days after water deficit (DAWD) for both rubber clones. One-year-old rubber plants were cultivated in 20 L pots filled with a soil:sand:humus ratio of 4:3:3. Photosynthetic performance was analyzed by measuring ...

In Portugal, there is a lack of knowledge of the current epidemiological situation, as the unique toxoplasmosis National Serological Survey was performed in 1979/1980.We studied the seroprevalence trends in the Portuguese general population over the past 3 decades, by assessing chronological spread cross-sectional ...

RT-PCR spike gene target late detection (SGTL) can constitute a useful surrogate to track B.1.1.7 spread, besides the spike gene target failure (SGTF) proxy. SGTL/SGTF samples were associated with statistically significant higher viral loads, but not with substantial shift in age distribution ...

The chemical investigation of the fruits of Cipadessa fruticosa (Meliaceae) afforded the new limonoid cipadesin B and the known swietemahonolide. From the roots of Cedrela fissilis (Meliaceae) were isolated the limonoid 3beta-acetoxycarapin, new as natural product, along with the triterpenes oleanolic and oleanonic acid. These compounds and other six mexicanolide limonoids previously isolated from C. fruticosa showed insecticidal activity against the leaf-cutting ants Atta sexdens rubropilosa.

However, salicylic acid acts in the mitigation of this abiotic stress by promoting an increase in growth, photosynthesis, nitrogen metabolism, synthesis of osmoregulators and antioxidant enzymes.
