Molecular Characterisation of Orf Virus in Goats From Eastern Türkiye

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
This study provides the molecular characterisation of Orf virus (ORFV) strains circulating in Türkiye. Phylogenetic analysis of F1L, B2L, and VIR genes reveals high genetic similarity with Asian and global isolates, highlighting the importance of multi‐gene analysis in monitoring viral outbreaks and understanding disease origins.

Analysis of the MUC1 Gene and its Polymorphism in Capra hircus [PDF]

Journal of Dairy Science, 2004
The objective of our study was to demonstrate the existence of a repetitive region in the goat MUC1 gene and to develop a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) protocol to analyze its polymorphism in different breeds. Using 2 primers derived from the bovine MUC1 sequence, a PCR fragment was obtained and cloned. The sequence analysis shows that the repetitive

ASIP Variants in Livestock: It's Not Black and White

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Fur and feather pigmentation play an important role in the survival and reproduction of many species, as well as in selective breeding and agriculture. The synthesis of pigment molecules, eumelanin and pheomelanin, is partially regulated by the agouti signalling protein (ASIP) encoded by the ASIP gene.

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1406-1462, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Community perceptions and management of the fleshy‐fruited invasive alien plant Pyracantha angustifolia: Insights from South Africa's Montane grasslands

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1869-1879, June 2026.
Abstract Invasive alien plants can provide economic or cultural benefits to local communities, influencing perceptions and potentially affecting management decisions. Understanding these perceptions is crucial to avoiding inefficiencies, misunderstandings and conflicts in the management of invasive alien species.

Tick‐Tac‐Foe: When Ticks, Trade, and Zoonotic Pathogens Align in African Wet Meat Markets

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Zoonotic diseases account for over ∼60% of infectious diseases and present a significantly growing fatality threat in Africa. Live and wet markets (LWMs) in Africa function as key economic venues that support human livelihoods through social interaction and trade in food stuff, including meat and other animal‐based products.
