The ascomycete Geosmithia morbida and the walnut twig beetle Pityophthorus juglandis are associated with thousand
cankers disease of Juglans (walnut) and Pterocarya (wingnut). The disease was first reported in the western United States

The modeling of fluvial systems is constrained by a lack of spatial information about the continuity and structure of streambed sediments. There are few methods for noninvasive characterization of streambeds. Invasive methods using wells and cores fail to provide detailed spatial information on the prevailing architecture and its continuity. Geophysical...
We lack a deep understanding of genetic and metabolic attributes specializing in microbial consortia for initial and subsequent waves of colonization of our body habitats. Here we show that phylogenetically interspersed bacteria in Clostridium cluster XIVa, an abundant group of bacteria in the adult human gut also known as the...
