Are alterations of the pilQ gene in Neisseria gonorrhoeae unlikely contributors to decreased susceptibility to ceftriaxone and cefixime in clinical gonococcal strains?
pilQ polymorphisms are unlikely contributors to decreased susceptibility to ESCs in clinical gonococcal strains.
This study highlights the importance of seascape-scale patterns in structural complexity in determining spatial patterns of macroalgal consumption by fish. Given the importance of herbivory in maintaining the ability of coral reefs to reorganise and retain ecosystem functions following disturbance, structural complexity emerges as a critical feature that is essential for the healthy functioning of these ecosystems.
