Neglecting the fallow season can significantly underestimate annual methane emissions in Mediterranean rice fields
(Public Library of Science, 2018-05-31)
Paddy rice fields are one of the most important sources of anthropogenic methane. Improving the accuracy in the CH4 budget is fundamental to identify strategies to mitigate climate change. Such improvement ...
Histopathological and virological findings in emaciated pigs from Mexico: an exploratory study
(University of Veterinary and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Brno, 2018-06-27)
The objective of this work was to detect the presence of three main pig respiratory viral agents
(porcine rubulavirus [PorPV], porcine circovirus type 2 [PCV-2], and porcine reproductive and
respiratory ...
Diet and other environmental factors shape the bacterial communities of fish gut in an eutrophic lake
(Wiley, 2018-08-09)
Aims
The aim of this work was to study the gut microbial diversity from eight species of wild fish with different feeding habits, digestive physiology (gastric vs agastric) and provide comparative ...

(Wiley, 2018-10-22)
The effects of feeding on a commercial diet and lecithin‐enriched (EN) Artemia franciscana nauplii for improving co‐feeding strategies of Neotropical green terror cichlid (Aequidens rivulatus) larvae ...
ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Asfarviridae
(Microbiology Society, 2018-03-22)
The family Asfarviridae includes the single species African swine fever virus, isolates of which have linear dsDNA genomes of

Temperature responsiveness of gilthead sea bream bone; an in vitro and in vivo approach
(Springer Nature, 2018-07-25)
This study aimed to characterize the molecules involved in osteogenesis in seabream and establish using in vitro/in vivo approaches the responsiveness of selected key genes to temperature. The impact ...
Chimeric camel/human heavy-chain antibodies protect against MERS-CoV infection
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2018-08-08)
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) continues to cause outbreaks in humans as a result of spillover events from dromedaries. In contrast to humans, MERS-CoV–exposed dromedaries develop ...
Short- and long-term effects on growth and expression patterns in response to incubation temperatures in Senegalese sole
(Elsevier, 2018-05-25)
In this study, the short- and long-term effects of embryo incubation temperatures (16, 18 and 20 °C) on development and growth of the flatfish Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) was determined by ...
Seasonal-and dose-dependent effects of recombinant gonadotropins on sperm production and quality in the flatfish Solea senegalensis
(Elsevier, 2018-07-02)
Consecutive treatments with recombinant follicle-stimulating and luteinizing hormones (rFsh and rLh, respectively) stimulate spermatogenesis and potentiate sperm production in pubescent specimens of the ...
The cellular localization and redistribution of multiple aquaporin paralogs in the spermatic duct epithelium of a maturing marine teleost
(Wiley, 2018-05-27)
Aquaporin‐mediated fluid transport in the mammalian efferent duct and epididymis is believed to play a role in sperm maturation and concentration. In fish, such as the marine teleost gilthead seabream ...
