Experimental assessment of the effects of a Neotropical nocturnal piscivore on juvenile native and invasive fishes
(Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia, 2012-03-30)
We experimentally examined the predator-prey relationships between juvenile spotted sorubim Pseudoplastystoma corruscans
and young-of-the-year invasive and native fish species of the Paraná River basin, ...
Characterization of porcine dendritic cell response to Streptococcus suis
(BMC, 2011-06-02)
Streptococcus suis is a major swine pathogen and important zoonotic agent causing mainly septicemia and
meningitis. However, the mechanisms involved in host innate and adaptive immune responses toward ...
Development of an antigen Enzyme-Linked AptaSorbent Assay (ELASA) for the detection of swine influenza virus in field samples
(Elsevier, 2021-08-09)
Influenza viruses are highly variable pathogens that infect a wide range of mammalian and avian species. According to the internal conserved proteins (nucleoprotein: NP, and matrix proteins: M), these ...
Generalized tuberculosis due to Mycobacterium caprae in a red fox phylogenetically related to livestock breakdowns
(BMC, 2022-09-20)
Background
Tuberculosis (TB) due to Mycobacterium caprae is endemic in goat herds and free-ranging wild boars in Spain, causing infections in other livestock or wild animals to a lesser extent. TB ...
Dominance behaviour in a non-aggressive flatfish, Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) and brain mRNA abundance of selected transcripts
(Public Library of Science, 2017-09-06)
Dominance is defined as the preferential access to limited resources. The present study aimed to characterise dominance in a non-aggressive flatfish species, the Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) by ...
Reproductive performance and egg and larvae quality from first generation peruvian grunt Anisotremus scapularis (Tschudi, 1846): a comparative analysis with spawns from wild broodstock
(Frontiers, 2023-12-22)
Anisotremus scapularis is a marine fish distributed along the Peruvian coast that is commercially important in local markets. IMARPE started research on this species aimed to condition breeders and ...
Modelling the spatial risk of malaria through probability distribution of Anopheles maculipennis s.l. and imported cases
(Taylor and Francis, 2024-05-02)
Malaria remains one of the most important infectious diseases globally due to its high incidence and mortality rates. The
influx of infected cases from endemic to non-endemic malaria regions like Europe ...
Multi-isotopic assessments of spatio-temporal diet variability: the case of two sympatric gulls in the western Mediterranean
(Wiley, 2018-11-15)
In predator populations, changes in foraging behaviour in response to spatio-temporal variability of prey are expected. Prey depletion might cause trophic niche widening in generalist species, but not ...
Animal models to study the neurological manifestations of the post-COVID-19 condition
(Nature Research, 2023-08-24)
More than 40% of individuals infected by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have experienced
persistent or relapsing multi-systemic symptoms months after the onset of coronavirus ...
Global guidance on environmental life cycle impact assessment indicators: impacts of climate change, fine particulate matter formation, water consumption and land use
(Springer Verlag, 2018-03-16)
Purpose
Guidance is needed on best-suited indicators to quantify and monitor the man-made impacts on human health, biodiversity and resources. Therefore, the UNEP-SETAC Life Cycle Initiative initiated ...
