ABSTRACT Viral suppressors of RNA silencing (VSRs) are proteins that interfere with antiviral defense mechanisms and enhance infection. For plant viruses, VSRs can be encoded in viral genomes and satellite molecules and play an important role in the virus's life cycle and in overcoming host defenses.

Ricinus Communis: Nutritional Importance, Health Benefits, and Industrial Applications
The current paper summarizes the nutritional composition, phytochemistry, health benefits, safety studies, and applications of castor beans and their oil. Moreover, the diverse bioactive compounds, including saponins, emodins, terpenoids, anthraquinones, flavonoids, steroids, and alkaloids, exhibit therapeutic properties such as antioxidant, anticancer,

Have the environmental benefits of insect farming been overstated? A critical review
ABSTRACT Insect farming is frequently promoted as a sustainable food solution, yet current evidence challenges many environmental benefits claimed by industry proponents. This review critically examines the scientific foundation for assessing the environmental impacts of insect farming in both human food and animal feed applications.

Do stylet‐borne aphid‐transmitted viruses share the same binding sites?
Here, we tested if different stylet‐borne aphid‐transmitted viruses can compete for the same binding sites within the aphid stylets. We conducted sequential transmission assays of a potyvirus (ZYMV) followed by a cucumovirus (CMV) using Aphis gossypii as a vector and melon and pepper as test plants.

Several common cover crops and flower strip plants are susceptible to BMYV, while susceptibility and attractiveness to Myzus persicae vary widely. These plants may act as virus reservoirs, emphasising the need to prevent green bridges. ABSTRACT Virus yellows (VY), caused by beet chlorosis virus (BChV), beet mild yellowing virus (BMYV) and beet yellows ...

Antibiotic Use in Livestock: A Driver of Resistance in Africa and the Path to Safer Alternatives
The incorporation of antibiotics into animal feeds is one of the drivers of antibiotic resistance, a global One Health challenge. To reduce the burden of antibiotic resistance, the use of alternative growth promoters and drugs must be promoted, as well as sensitization and implementation of regulations.

Antimicrobial prescribing guidelines for horses in Australia
The growing problem of antimicrobial resistance also affects equine veterinarians with increasing frequency. Antimicrobial stewardship and responsible prescribing are essential for a future in which effective antimicrobials are available, as it is unlikely that new antimicrobials will become available for use in horses.

Molecular Evolution and Epidemiology of Benyviridae and the Agricultural Implications
This study reveals Benyvirus diversity and evolution, highlighting their agricultural impact and the need for molecular surveillance to manage emerging plant viral diseases. ABSTRACT Viruses from the Benyviridae family are important aetiological agents of diseases in plants and are responsible for significant losses in agricultural production across ...
