Toxoplasma gondii in sympatric domestic and wild ungulates in the Mediterranean ecosystem
(Parasitology Research, 2018-01-17)Toxoplasma gondii is a zoonotic protozoan of worldwide distribution. The present study provides information on risk factors affecting T. gondii infection in domestic and free-ranging wild ungulates ... -
Toxoplasma gondii infection in wild mustelids and cats across an urban-rural gradient
(Plos One, 2018-06-20)The increase in human population and domestic pets, such as cats, are generating important consequences in terms of habitat loss and pathogen pollution of coastal ecosystems with potential to generate ... -
Tracking a mass mortality outbreak of pen shell Pinna nobilis populations: A collaborative effort of scientists and citizens
(Scientific Reports, 2019-09-16)A mass mortality event is devastating the populations of the endemic bivalve Pinna nobilis in the Mediterranean Sea from early autumn 2016. A newly described Haplosporidian endoparasite (Haplosporidium ... -
Tracking Asian tiger mosquito introductions in the Netherlands using Nextstrain
(Journal of the European Mosquito Control Association, 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 ... -
Tracking Toxoplasma gondii in freshwater ecosystems: interaction with the invasive American mink (Neovison vison) in Spain
(Parasitology Research, 2018-05-21)Water-borne transmission may play an important role in the epidemiology of Toxoplasma gondii. Mammals closely related to freshwater ecosystems, such as the American mink (Neovison vison), are potentially ... -
Trans-Generational Effect of Maternal Lactation during Pregnancy: A Holstein Cow Model
(PLoS ONE, 2012-12-20)Epigenetic regulation in mammals begins in the first stages of embryogenesis. This prenatal programming determines, in part, phenotype expression in adult life. Some species, particularly dairy cattle, ... -
Transcriptional Characterization of Porcine Leptin and Leptin Receptor Genes
(PLoS ONE, 2013-06-18)The leptin (LEP) and its receptor (LEPR) regulate food intake and energy balance through hypothalamic signaling. However, the LEP-LEPR axis seems to be more complex and its expression regulation has not ... -
Transcriptional profiling of the terpenoid biosynthesis pathway and in vitro tests reveal putative roles of linalool and farnesal in nectarine resistance against brown rot
(Plant Science, 2022-12-06)The most devastating fungal disease of peaches and nectarines is brown rot, caused by Monilinia spp. Among the many plant responses against biotic stress, plant terpenoids play essential protective ... -
Transcriptome analysis of flathead grey mullet (Mugil cephalus) ovarian development induced by recombinant gonadotropin hormones
(Frontiers in Physiology, 2022-11-01)Background: Treatment with recombinant gonadotropin hormones (rGths), follicle-stimulating hormone (rFsh) and luteinizing hormone (rLh), was shown to induce and complete vitellogenesis to finally obtain ... -
Transcriptomic analysis of reproductive damage in the epididymis of male Kunming mice induced by chronic infection of Toxoplasma gondii PRU strain
(Parasites and Vectors, 2019-11-08)BACKGROUND: Some researchers have reported that Toxoplasma gondii can cause serious reproductive impairment in male animals. Specifically, T. gondii destroy the quality of sperm in the epididymis, which ... -
Transfer of manure as fertilizer from livestock farms to crop fields: The case of Catalonia
(Computers and Electronics in Agriculture, 2020-06-20)Intensive livestock production might have a negative environmental impact, by producing large amounts of animal manure, which, if not properly managed, can contaminate nearby water bodies with nutrient ... -
Transfer of manure from livestock farms to crop fields as fertilizer using an ant inspired approach
(ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020-08-03)Intensive livestock production might have a negative environmental impact, by producing large amounts of animal excrements, which, if not properly managed, can contaminate nearby water bodies with ... -
Transgenic Mouse Bioassay: Evidence That Rabbits Are Susceptible to a Variety of Prion Isolates
(PLoS Pathogens, 2015-08-06)Interspecies transmission of prions is a well-established phenomenon, both experimentally and under field conditions. Upon passage through new hosts, prion strains have proven their capacity to change ... -
Transgenic solutions to increase yield and stability in wheat: shining hope or flash in the pan?
(Journal of Experimental Botany, 2019-03-11)Second-generation transgenic crops have the potential to transform agriculture, but progress has been limited, and particularly so in wheat where no transgenic cultivar has yet been approved. Taking on ... -
Transmission and immunopathology of the avian influenza virus A/Anhui/1/2013 (H7N9) human isolate in three commonly commercialized avian species
(Zoonoses and Public Health, 2017-09-14)H7N9 virus infection is a global concern, given that it can cause severe infection and mortality in humans. However, the understanding of H7N9 epidemiology, animal reservoir species and zoonotic risk ... -
