Ultrasonografical monitoring as diagnostic tool for reproductive management in female buffaloes (bubalus bubalis) [PDF]
Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2018 The aim of this study was to estimate the frequency of physiological and pathological reproductive conditions in female Italian Mediterranean Buffaloes. Female animals (n=444), ranging from 3 to 14 years of age were monitored by ultrasonography (USG).

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Bisexual releases are as effective as male‐only releases to control Drosophila suzukii with the sterile insect technique. Releasing sterile Drosophila suzukii males or males and females in cages led to the same degree of induced sterility in wild females.

Effects of ovary transport and storage temperature on in vitro maturation and cumulus cell apoptosis rates in cat oocytes [PDF]
Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2018 The objective of the present study was to examine the effects of two different transport temperature (37°C vs 4°C) and cold storage of ovaries for 24 h on cumulus cell apoptosis and maturation rates of cat oocytes in vitro. Ovaries were collected from 15

Insect Science, EarlyView.Abstract The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is an effective strategy for controlling insect pests, such as the Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata, Wiedemann). The effectiveness of the SIT depends on the ability of the sterile males to mate and their capacity to induce sterility in wild females.

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Insect Science, EarlyView.Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

One number to rule them all: The Wildlife Sperm Index for standardized gamete assessment
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract In wildlife conservation, breeding programmes focused on reintroduction are critical to recovering endangered species. Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) and biobanking play pivotal roles in these efforts but depend on high‐quality gametes.

Andrology, EarlyView.Abstract Background The oxytocin receptor (OR) is a G‐protein‐coupled receptor recently identified in human spermatozoa, whose origin and role in sperm physiology remain unknown. Objectives In this study, using the pig as a model, we examine the presence of the OR in ejaculated spermatozoa through immunofluorescence and immunoblotting, and investigate ...
