Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is considered a public health problem due to its rapid spread and high morbidity. This study aimed determine the genetic diversity phylogenetic relationships of CHIKVs in Colombia. A descriptive retrospective was carried out using sera patients infected with during outbreak The whole genomes CHIKV (n = 16) were sequenced an Illumina Hi-seq 2500 assembled Iterative Virus Assembler software. Bayesian inference analysis 157 strains worldwide origin. Colombian sequences...
This is the first report of genome sequence "Candidatus Rickettsia colombianensi" strain Adcor 2, deposited in DDBJ/ENA/GenBank under accession number RAQN00000000 The draft showed 36.01% similarity with that monacensis IrR/Munich (NCBI LN794217), 37.81% heilongjiangensis 054 CP002912), and 43.88% tamurae AT-1 CCMG01000001).
Morphological details of specimens collected from several localities in Brazil and identified as Africoseius lativentris (Karg 1982) are provided. The taxonomic position Krantz, 1962 has been debated over the years, with repeated changes its familial placement. A phylogenetic study based on 18S 28S rDNA sequences Brazilian population A. at Jaboticabal, São Paulo State, similar data 70 taxa representing 11 families Gamasina indicated that is a member well-supported Podocinidae (sensu...
