Active gut microbiota resistome identified by metatranscriptomics and its contribution to antimicrobial resistance

Abstract The global health crisis of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is compounded by gut microbiota, which acts as a reservoir for antibiotic-resistant genes (ARGs). While DNA-based metagenomics can identify the potential for resistance, the resistome, it cannot determine the ARG...

Green synthesis of Cu-Doped ZnO nanoparticles using Syzygium cumini leaf extract and their antimicrobial evaluation

Synthesis of nanoparticles by the green synthesis approach using the plant leaves extract has gained popularity since they are thought to be cost-effective, efficient and environment-friendly. This study was designed to synthesize copper-doped zinc oxide nanoparticles from Syzygi...

Unraveling the CDPK gene superfamily in Dalbergia species by comparative genomics and drought stress responsiveness

Calcium dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) are very important calcium-sensing protein kinases which decode intracellular calcium signals and transduce them into phosphorylation-mediated signaling events that allows plants to survive under environment stresses. While the function o...
