But what about a virus that doesn’t make people sick — just the bacteria that infects people, effectively destroying it? That’s what bacteriophages — or, simply, phages — are ...

However, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources found at least 13 cases in wild deer last year, all within that four-county area. Bovine tuberculosis is a bacterial disease that can affect all ...

In the quest to take the “forever” out of “forever chemicals,” bacteria might be our ally. Most remediation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) involves adsorbing and trapping them, but ...

But are insects technically animals? Are they something else entirely? Today, we’ll discuss insects and how they’re classified in the animal kingdom. Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya are the three ...

The diversity of bacterial flora is a crucial aspect of the microbiome (Human Microbiome Project, 2012). The richness (the total number of distinct bacterial taxonomy present) and diversity (the ...

Comprehensive & taxonomy-independent database Bakta provides a large and taxonomy-independent ... process by avoiding computationally expensive homology searches for identified genes. Thus, Bakta can ...
