The IGF1 gene (insulin-like growth factor 1) is a candidate for marker-assisted selection strategies.A single nucleotide polymorphism in the promoter region (IGF1/SnaBI) has been reported to be associated with production traits several cattle breeds.Here, we report its allelic frequencies Charolais and Beefmaster breeds; confirm association three traits: weaning weight, weight adjusted 210 days preweaning gain breed.In addition, designed strategy search these breeds new polymorphisms four...
Spiroplasma is a genus of Mollicutes whose members include plant pathogens, insect pathogens and endosymbionts animals. phenotypes have been repeatedly observed to be spontaneously lost in Drosophila cultures, several studies documented high genomic turnover symbionts pathogens. These observations suggest that evolves quickly comparison other symbionts. Here, we systematically assess evolutionary rates patterns poulsonii , natural symbiont . We analysed evolution s Hy within flies, Mel vitro...
Background All formerly endemic communities of the Southern Chiapas focus onchocerciasis in Mexico were treated with ivermectin until parasite transmission was eliminated by 2015. Transmission did not resume during a period three years (2012–2014) following final distribution 2011; it thus concluded that remained undetectable without intervention. WHO declared elimination from Methodology/Principal findings From 2016 to present, post-elimination surveillance (PES) based on examination for...
Abstract Members of the true fruit flies (family Tephritidae) are among most serious agricultural pests worldwide, whose control and management demands large costly international efforts. The need for cost-effective environmentally-friendly integrated pest (IPM) has led to development implementation autocidal strategies. Autocidal approaches include widely used sterile insect technique (SIT) incompatible (IIT). IIT relies on maternally transmitted bacteria (namely Wolbachia ), cause a...
La contaminación es uno de los problemas más grandes a que se enfrenta la humanidad actualmente; algunos compuestos pueden almacenarse por largos períodos en el suelo y mantos acuíferos. Además, efectos nocivos sobre salud humana son bien conocidos; medio ambiente tiene capacidad restaurar las áreas contaminadas bajas concentraciones; sin embargo, han superado límites naturales degradación. Por ello, importante implementación tecnologías remediación para tratar suelos con desechos tóxicos,...
Abstract Spiroplasma (Class Mollicutes) is a diverse wall-less bacterial genus whose members are strictly dependent on eukaryotic hosts (mostly arthropods and plants), with which they engage in pathogenic to mutualistic interactions. generally fastidious culture vitro , especially those that vertically transmitted by their hosts, include flies the Drosophila . has been invaded at least three independent clades of : Poulsonii (the best studied; contains reproductive manipulators defensive...

Objetivo: Determinar la prevalencia de Blastocystis sp. en niños residentes ciudad Reynosa, Tamaulipas, México. Material y Método: Estudio transversal que incluyó 238 muestras heces con edad 5 a 12 años escuelas primarias Resultados: Del total muestras, el 13,8% tuvo presencia sp.; siendo este más prevalente dentro los parásitos encontrados; también se reporta Entamoeba histolytica/dispar, Giardia intestinalis Enterobius vermicularis. Conclusiones: La zonas México es poco conocida; sin...
ABSTRACT Ceviche is a traditional dish made from raw fish meat marinated in lime juice without any heat cooking step throughout its preparation process. Although the use of organic acids as antibacterial agents well known; recent research indicates that actually can reduce risk V. parahemolyticus infections but it ineffective against other potential pathogens. Despite fact fresh safe; exposed organs including skin, gills and guts represent source bacterial contamination. In Mexico, diarrheal...
Pink hibiscus mealybug, Maconellicoccus hirsutus (Green), causes serious economic damage to agriculturally important crops. To date, the genome of this pest has not been studied by molecular techniques. Enriched genomic libraries containing (GT)10, (GA)10, and (GC)10 motifs were generated in a Mexican population mealybug. Sequencing analysis revealed eight microsatellite loci with different repeat unit lengths genome. The dinucleotide sequence (GC)4 from locus Seq1–56 was selected for primer...

In Latin America, Mexico is the country with second highest annual estimated number of Chagas disease cases, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, due to vector-borne transmission. The state Oaxaca location first documented human cases in and contained T. cruzi seropositive rate (3.5%) from blood donors. Here, entomological surveys, 2017 2019, were conducted collect triatomines 124 villages 60 municipalities. Four principal domestic Triatoma spp. (Hemiptera: Triatominae), phyllosoma, barberi,...
