Prevalence and Diversity of Avian Haemosporidians May Vary with Anthropogenic Disturbance in Tropical Habitats in Myanmar

Diversity, 2021
Avian malaria and related haemosporidians (genera Haemoproteus, Plasmodium and Leucocytozoon) infect most clades of bird. Although these parasites are present in almost all continents, they have been irregularly studied across different geographical ...

Multimodal Structural Color Graphics Based on Colloidal Photonic Microdome Arrays

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A hybrid photonic system combining colloidal crystals and microscale domes is designed to achieve four switchable optical states via the interplay of Bragg reflection and TIR interference. The graphics composed of the photonic microdome arrays provide tunable, angle‐sensitive structural coloration and concealed‐to‐revealed transitions, offering a ...

Bacterial Agents for Biocontrol of American Foulbrood (AFB) of Larvae Honey Bee

Microbiology Research
Bee colonies are constantly threatened by a bacterial larvae disease called American foulbrood, caused by the Gram-positive bacterium Paenibacillus larvae. This is a highly specialized pathogen with only one established host, the honey bee larvae.

Environmental levels of avian antigen are relevant to the progression of chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis during antigen avoidance

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, 2018
Background In chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (chronic HP), antigen avoidance is critical for disease management; however, complete avoidance is difficult because of unrecognized exposure to antigens.

Continental-scale patterns of pathogen prevalence: a case study on the corncrake [PDF]

, 2014
Pathogen infections can represent a substantial threat to wild populations, especially those already limited in size. To determine how much variation in the pathogens observed among fragmented populations is caused by ecological factors, one needs to ...
