Diprosopus dirrhinus (nasal duplication) in a female Holstein Friesian calf: Clinical findings, diagnostic imaging and surgical management

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract An 11‐week‐old Holstein Friesian heifer calf presented with a congenital nasal abnormality characterised by an additional, turbinate‐like structure located dorsally on the nasal bridge. Clinical examination of the calf revealed normal respiratory function, with the accessory structure producing mucoid discharge from blind‐ended cavities ...

Hsp90 Chaperones Bluetongue Virus Proteins and Prevents Proteasomal Degradation

Journal of Virology, 2019
Protein chaperones are instrumental for maintaining protein homeostasis, enabling correct protein folding and organization; prominent members include heat shock proteins 70 and 90. Virus infections place a large burden on this homeostasis.

A CACNA2D2‐Related Recessive Form of Cerebellar Abiotrophy in Angus Cattle

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Cerebellar disease in ruminants is often virus‐induced and non‐genetic, but there are also rare inherited forms of cerebellar hypoplasia and cerebellar abiotrophy (CA). So far, no causal variant has been reported for these conditions in cattle. Two inbred Angus calves suspected of having cerebellar disease were reported in Scotland.

The nonstructural protein NSs of Schmallenberg virus is targeted to the nucleolus and induces nucleolar disorganization [PDF]

, 2016
Schmallenberg virus (SBV) was discovered in Germany in late 2011 and then spread rapidly to many European countries. SBV is an orthobunyavirus that causes abortion and congenital abnormalities in ruminants.

Genetic Diversity in Dutch Sheep Breeds

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The Netherlands has a rich variety of native sheep breeds, most of them at risk or endangered. We studied the distinctiveness of these breeds, their genetic diversity within and between breeds, and how this diversity is shaped by geography, purpose, history and genetic management practices.

Beyond Species Diversity: Functional Approaches Reveal Consistent Fauna Community Responses to Exotic Grass Invasion in Arid Lands

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
To assess whether the impacts of exotic plant invasion can be generalised across taxa, we developed a conceptual framework predicting faunal responses to grass invasion in open, arid ecosystems and tested our predictions using data on birds, reptiles and ants from sites invaded by buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris) and paired uninvaded sites.

Bluetongue: control, surveillance and safe movement of animals

EFSA journal. European Food Safety Authority, 2017
The performance of different bluetongue control measures related to both vaccination and protection from bluetongue virus (BTV) vectors was assessed. By means of a mathematical model, it was concluded that when vaccination is applied on 95% of animals ...
