Carnation flowers from which the virus gets its name. Infection can cause lesions and discoloration of the flowers, decreasing product value. Carnation Italian Ringspot Virus (CIRV) is a plant virus that impacts carnation plants (Dianthus caryophyllus). These flowers are a popular choice in ornamental flower arrangements.

Worldwide, approximately 18% of cancer cases are related to infectious diseases. [9] [60] This proportion varies in different regions of the world from a high of 25% in Africa to less than 10% in the developed world. [9] Viruses are the usual infectious agents that cause cancer but bacteria and parasites also contribute. Infectious organisms ...
Bacteria involved in causing and treating cancers. Cancer bacteria are bacteria infectious organisms that are known or suspected to cause cancer. [1] While cancer-associated bacteria have long been considered to be opportunistic (i.e., infecting healthy tissues after cancer has already established itself), there is some evidence that bacteria may be directly carcinogenic.
Residents of the rural West Virginia town at the heart of "Dark Waters" may (or may not) have been an extreme case, but their decades-long consumption of contaminated water was found to be the ...
[40] [9] Due to the prevalence of infection by H. pylori in middle-aged adults (74% in developing countries and 58% in developed countries in 2002 [41]), and 1% to 3% likelihood of infected individuals developing gastric cancer, [42] H. pylori-induced gastric cancer is the third highest cause of worldwide cancer mortality as of 2018.
