Gram-Positive Bacteria Responses to Antibiotics When Incubated in Fecal in Vitro Microcosms from Swine Supplemented with Chlorophyllin

Standardized antimicrobial susceptibility assays use defined culture media and may therefore not fully account for gastrointestinal constituents that influence bacterial responses to antibiotics. This study evaluated whether swine fecal extracts, including extracts associated wit...

Introgression of anthracnose resistance loci into a sweet sorghum genetic background

Abstract Sweet sorghum is becoming an important source of feedstock to produce renewable fuels that can be highly affected by anthracnose ( Colletotrichum sublineola ), a major disease affecting all aboveground parts of the plant. The high genetic diversity of the pathogen requir...
