MICROBIAL SPECIES AND INTRASPECIES UNITS EXIST AND ARE MAINTAINED BY ECOLOGICAL COHESIVENESS COUPLED TO HIGH HOMOLOGOUS RECOMBINATION

Microbial species and intraspecies units exist and are maintained by ecological cohesiveness coupled to high homologous recombination

Abstract Recent genomic analyses have revealed that microbial communities are predominantly composed of persistent, sequence-discrete species and intraspecies units (genomovars), but the mechanisms that create and maintain these units remain unclear.By analyzing closely-related isolate genomes from the same or related Health samples and identifying

Is Diffusion Tensor Imaging-Guided Radiotherapy the New State-of-the-Art? A Review of the Current Literature and Technical Insights

Despite the increasing precision of radiotherapy delivery, it is still frequently associated with neurological complications.This is in part due to damage to eloquent white matter (WM) tracts, which is made more likely by the fact they cannot be visualised on standard structural imaging.WM is additionally more vulnerable than grey matter to radiati
