The westward journey of alfalfa leaf curl virus
(MDPI, 2018)
Alfalfa leaf curl virus (ALCV), which causes severe disease symptoms in alfalfa (Medicago
sativa L.) and is transmitted by the widespread aphid species, Aphis craccivora Koch, has been
found throughout the Mediterranean ...
Dispersal dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 lineages during the first epidemic wave in New York City
(Public Library of Science, 2021)
During the first phase of the COVID-19 epidemic, New York City rapidly became the epicenter of the pandemic in the United States. While molecular phylogenetic analyses have previously highlighted multiple introductions and ...
Selection analysis identifies clusters of unusual mutational changes in omicron lineage ba.1 that likely impact spike function
(Oxford University Press, 2022)
Among the 30 nonsynonymous nucleotide substitutions in the Omicron S-gene are 13 that have only rarely been seen
in other SARS-CoV-2 sequences. These mutations cluster within three functionally important regions of the ...
Self-maintaining or continuously refreshed? The genetic structure of Euphausia lucens populations in the Benguela upwelling ecosystem
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
Populations of Euphausia lucens over the shelf of the southern Benguela upwelling
region could be self-maintaining. Alternatively, they could be continually refreshed
by expatriates from the SWAtlantic that enter the ...
Variant-specific introduction and dispersal dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 in New York City – from Alpha to Omicron
(Public Library of Science, 2023)
Since the latter part of 2020, SARS-CoV-2 evolution has been characterised by the emergence of viral variants associated with distinct biological characteristics. While the main
research focus has centred on the ability ...
