Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.We developed and validated a copy number variation (CNV)‐based molecular method to accurately determine the sex of immature ticks, Ixodes scapularis and Rhipicephalus microplus, which lack morphological sexual dimorphism. Using qPCR and ddPCR assays targeting female‐enriched genes, sex was reliably identified from DNA extracted non‐destructively from a

Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future
Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 6, Page 1574-1602, November 2026.ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 6, November 2026.A brucellosis outbreak was investigated in dairy cattle and farm workers. Among 83 cattle and 11 workers, Brucella abortus was molecularly confirmed using IS711‐PCR and sequencing. Infection was detected in 48% of cattle and 45% of workers, highlighting significant zoonotic and occupational risks.

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, November 2026.Abstract A 5‐year‐old, spayed, female Shiba Inu was presented with a 6‐week history of reduced appetite, lethargy and generalised stiffness, which showed only limited improvement despite anti‐inflammatory treatment. The most significant clinical abnormalities were pyrexia, stiffness, pain on joint manipulation and cutaneous lesions. Laboratory findings
