Few indirect effects of baculovirus on parasitoids demonstrate high compatibility of biocontrol methods against Tuta absoluta
(Wiley, 2022-12-08)
BACKGROUND
Combining different biocontrol agents, particularly micro- and macroorganisms, can contribute to new and sustainable pest control approaches. Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) ...
Characterization and cross-protection of experimental infections with SeCoV and two PEDV variants
(Wiley, 2022-08-02)
The aim of this study was to characterize the infection of weaned pigs with swine enteric coronavirus (SeCoV) -a chimeric virus most likely originated from a recombination event between porcine epidemic ...
Tracking Asian tiger mosquito introductions in the Netherlands using Nextstrain
(Wageningen Academic, 2022-07-22)
The Asian tiger mosquito Aedes albopictus is an undesirable invasive mosquito species that causes considerable nuisance through its biting behaviour, and has been proven to transmit more than 22 different ...
Sow vaccination against virulent Glaesserella parasuis shapes the nasal microbiota of their offspring
(Nature Research, 2022-03-01)
Glaesserella parasuis is the etiological agent of Glässer’s disease, a common pathology in the pork industry with higher prevalence in the postweaning period. Vaccination is one of the strategies to ...
Comprehensive Analysis of Codon Usage Patterns in Chinese Porcine Circoviruses Based on Their Major Protein-Coding Sequences
(MDPI, 2022-01-03)
Porcine circoviruses (PCVs) are distributed in swine herds worldwide and represent a threat to the health of domestic pigs and the profits of the swine industry. Currently, four PCV species, including ...
Agricultural policies against invasive species generate contrasting outcomes for climate change mitigation and biodiversity conservation
(The Royal Society, 2022-10-19)
Direct consequences of biological invasions on biodiversity and the environment have been largely documented. Yet collateral indirect effects mediated by changes in agri-environmental policies aimed at ...
Inter-Observer Repeatability of Indicators of Consciousness after Waterbath Stunning in Broiler Chickens
(MDPI, 2022-07-13)
Waterbath stunning is intended to induce unconsciousness until death occurs due to bleeding in poultry. However, it is not always effective. For this reason, in order to protect their welfare, it is ...
P22 protein complex in the serodiagnosis of animal tuberculosis: Antigenic stability and cross-reactivity with Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis infection
(Elsevier, 2022-10-07)
The P22 ELISA was recently developed for the serodiagnosis of animal tuberculosis. Herein, the stability of the P22 antigen in different presentations and storage conditions, and the cross-reactivity ...
Genetic architecture and genomic predictive ability of apple quantitative traits across environments
(Oxford University Press, 2022-02-19)
Implementation of genomic tools is desirable to increase the efficiency of apple breeding. Recently, the multi-environment apple reference population (apple REFPOP) proved useful for rediscovering loci, ...
Effects of nomadic grazing system and indoor concentrate feeding systems on performance, behavior, blood parameters, and meat quality of finishing lambs
(Public Library of Science, 2022-12-07)
The objective of the study was to evaluate the effects of three production systems on growth performance, behavior, blood parameters, carcass characteristics, and meat quality. A total of 30 lambs (n = ...
