Abstract:
... Enterococcus faecalis is one of the main bacteria in the human and animal intestine but is also classed as an opportunistic pathogen. During normal growth, E. faecalis produces natural antibiotics and is conducive to human health. As ectopic parasites, E. faecalis is capable of causing infective endocarditis, neonatal sepsis, bloodstream infections, bacteremia, and intraabdominal infections. With ...

Abstract:
... Japanese encephalitis is a zoonotic, mosquito-borne, infectious disease caused by Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), which is prevalent in China. At present, there are no specific drugs or therapies for JEV infection, which can only be treated symptomatically. Lentivirus-mediated RNA interference (RNAi) is a highly efficient method to silence target genes. In this study, two lentiviral shRNA, LV-C ...

Abstract:
... Bovine viral diarrhea virus 1, reclassified as Pestivirus A, causes an economically important cattle disease that is distributed worldwide. Pestivirus A may cause persistent infection in that calves excrete the virus throughout their lives, spreading the infection in the herd. Many persistently infected (PI) calves die in the first 2 years of life from mucosal disease (MD) or secondary infections, ...

Abstract:
... Cotton leaf curl disease (CLCuD) has been a major constraint to cotton production across Pakistan and northwestern India since the early 1990s. The disease is caused by a number of begomoviruses, including Cotton leaf curl Multan virus (CLCuMuV), which associate with a specific host range and symptom determining betasatellite known as Cotton leaf curl Multan betasatellite (CLCuMuB). Bemisia tabaci ...
