Determination of Antimicrobial Resistance Megaplasmid-Like pESI Structures Contributing to the Spread of <i>Salmonella</i> Schwarzengrund in Japan by Kanako Ishihara, Suzuka Someno, Kaoru Matsui, Chisato Nakazawa, Takahiro Abe, Hayato Harima, Tsutomu Omatsu, Manao Ozawa, Eriko Iwabuchi, Tetsuo Asai

“…Specifically, the tentative plasmid sequence obtained via short-read sequencing, PCR, and conjugation experiments identified deletions of antimicrobial resistance genes (<i>aadA</i>, <i>sul1</i>, and <i>tetA</i>), class 1 integron, mercury resistance operon, and/or plasmid transfer region in the pESI-like plasmid. Conclusion: These data on the structural diversity of pESI-like plasmids suggest that some time has passed since <i>S</i>. …”

Bridging gaps: On the performance of airborne LiDAR to model wood mouse-habitat structure relationships in pine forests. by Carlos Jaime-González, Pablo Acebes, Ana Mateos, Eduardo T Mezquida

“…Field derived variables indicated that wood mouse was positively influenced by the gradient of increasing shrub cover and negatively affected by elevation. Regarding LiDAR data, two LiDAR PCs, i.e. gradients in canopy openness and complexity in forest vertical structure positively influenced wood mouse, although elevation interacted negatively with the complexity in vertical structure, indicating wood mouse's preferences for plots with lower elevations but with complex forest vertical structure. …”

Indeterminacy of Camera Intrinsic Parameters in Structure from Motion Using Images from Constant-Pitch Flight Design by Truc Thanh Ho, Riku Sato, Ariyo Kanno, Tsuyoshi Imai, Koichi Yamamoto, Takaya Higuchi

“…Intrinsic parameter estimation by self-calibration is commonly used in Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-based photogrammetry with Structure from Motion (SfM). However, obtaining stable estimates of these parameters from image-based SfM—which relies solely on images, without auxiliary data such as ground control points (GCPs)—remains challenging. …”
