BackgroundInfections caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae have been difficult to control because of the worldwide emergence of carbapenem-resistant isolates mainly due to carbapenemase production.Information regarding carbapenemase-producing K.pneumoniae is still scarce in Ethiopia.Therefore, the current study aimed to determine the prevalence of carbap
Abstract Black scorch disease (BSD), caused by the fungal pathogen Thielaviopsis punctulata (Tp) DSM102798, poses a significant threat to date palm cultivation in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).In this study, Chicago and Hi-C libraries were prepared as input for the Dovetail HiRise pipeline to scaffold the genome of Tp DSM102798.We generated an ass
Georeferencing satellite imagery is the basis for mapping and other subsequent processing in photogrammetry and remote sensing.Traditional georeferencing methods, which require adequate and well-distributed ground control points (GCPs), are time-consuming, costly, constantly cumbersome and inefficient.This study proposes a method of adaptive re-wei
Vibrio cholerae possesses multiple quorum-sensing (QS) systems that control virulence and biofilm formation among other traits.At low cell densities, when QS autoinducers are absent, V.cholerae forms biofilms.At high cell densities, when autoinducers have accumulated, biofilm formation is repressed, and dispersal occurs.Here, we focus on the roles
Fashion is an essential part of human experience and an industry worth over $1.7 trillion.Important choices such as hiring or dating someone are often based on the clothing people wear, and yet we understand almost nothing about the Recoil Pads objective features that make an outfit fashionable.In this study, we provide an empirical approach to thi
