For this, characterization of genetic variability of a population is required since genetic variation within population and between species determines the rate of adaptive evolution and response to traditional crop improvement [2]. Genetic diversity is a raw material for evolution, thus enabling populations of species to survive, evolve and adapt to resist longterm changes in the environment. This is very important in the plant breeding strategies for developing high yielding varieties and for maintaining the productivity of such varieties through introduction of genes for resistance to disease, insect pests and other abiotic factor [3]. Genetic diversity of domestic species allows people to act as agents of selection and develop different forms of the same species for a variety of purposes, including enabling the producers to grow the same species in different environments, each with a different requirement of climate, pathogens, predators, competitors etc [2]. Differences within and between plants can be a strategic value to conservation as they provide a clear justification for protecting a species across its entire geographic range and all the subspecies of major populations.","PeriodicalId":7446,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Biotechnology & Microbiology","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72641334","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Antifungal drugs used for therapy of fungal diseases can lead to antifungal resistance. Based on a study conducted by National Institute of Health, in the United States during 1980-1997, mortality rates due to invasive mycoses have been increased by 3.2 fold [1,2]. In addition, high both mortality and morbidity caused by poor diagnosis, emergence of drug-resistance and lack of effective antifungal therapy are commonly produced [2]. Nevertheless, antifungal resistance has been described for all virtually antifungal agents in several pathogens, including Candida and Aspergillus species. Additionally, azole resistance in A. fumigatus is widespread with high geographic variance since the first report of itraconazole resistance in 1997 [3]. Moreover, Candida genera exhibit resistance against almost all antifungals available, especially against Fluconazole [4-7]. For instance, C. lusitaniae and C. guillermondii are intrinsically resistant to amphotericin B [8], while other ones such as C. glabrata or C. parapsilosis are more resistant to echinocandins [3,9]. More alarming are the recent global epidemics of C. auris, which displays high resistance to all classes of antifungal drugs, eliminating effective therapeutic options [10,11]. Similarly, resistance in molds against antifungals available in the market has been demonstrated by Aspergillus fumigatus and other Aspergillus species, and even genera as Scedosporium and Fusarium [12]. For example, A. flavus and A. terreus are able to tolerate higher concentrations of amphotericin B compared to other Aspergillus species, due to different response to oxidative stress [13,14].","PeriodicalId":7446,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Biotechnology & Microbiology","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78115405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Zhou","doi":"10.19080/AIBM.2018.09.555773","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.19080/AIBM.2018.09.555773","url":null,"abstract":"Poliovirus is a clinically relevant enterovirus from the Picornaviridae family of non-enveloped viruses. Prior to the introduction of inactivated and attenuated poliovirus vaccines in the 1950’s, the virus caused considerable global panic from 1890 onward [1]. Although the majority of poliovirus infections result in an abortive flu-like prodrome or are asymptomatic, in ~5% of infections, a meningitic phase with varying degrees of flaccid paralytic outcome follow the prodrome [2]. Enteroviruses, including polioviruses, are viruses which are transmitted through the oral/fecal route. As implied by this, oral secretions and fecal excretions from infected individuals are capable of infecting new hosts via the gastrointestinal tract of a noninfected individual. Interruption of the cycle of infection and reinfection of enteroviruses may be facilitated by disinfection interventions that are capable of inactivating the virus. In order to be of practical use, such disinfectants should cause a significant reduction in pathogen load on environmental surfaces (fomites) under ambient conditions following a relatively short contact time. Non-enveloped viruses are not susceptible to detergents or lipid solvents, and other types of chemical disinfectants must be used. For preparation of the inactivated (Salk) poliomyelitis vaccines of the 1950’s, poliovirus was inactivated with formaldehyde. Incomplete inactivation of vaccine poliovirus leading to iatrogenic poliomyelitis in ~200 individuals was attributed to the presence of viral aggregates or of an excess of foreign protein in the inactivation solutions [1]. In particular, the presence of cell debris in the vaccine pools due to inadequate purification prevented suitable exposure of the viral particles to formaldehyde, resulting in incomplete inactivation [3,4]. Protection, by viral aggregation or by sequestering in a protein matrix, of viruses from exposure to disinfectant active agents is suggested by this unfortunate case of inactivation failure. The presence of organic load at the time of deposition of a virus onto a fomite is therefore an important factor that must be considered when assessing viral inactivation efficacy.","PeriodicalId":7446,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Biotechnology & Microbiology","volume":"61 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91190000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
