Unveiling Novel Viral Diversity, Biogeography, and Host Networks in Wildlife Through High‐Throughput Sequencing Data Mining

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 46, December 11, 2025.
Analysis of 57 536 high‐throughput sequencing datasets uncovers a vast, hidden world of viruses in wildlife. The researchers reveal significant geographic and host‐specific patterns of viruses, and their surprising cross‐species transmissions, such as avian flu viruses infecting goats.

Silica Nanoparticles as Multifunctional Platforms for Vaccine Delivery and Immune Modulation in Infectious Diseases

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, Volume 5, Issue 12, December 2025.
Overview of the use of silica nanoparticles in vaccines against pathogens. Different kinds of vaccines against infectious diseases are currently using solid or mesoporous silica nanoparticles in their formulation. Silica microparticles and nanoparticles (SiNPs) have been studied as vehicles for vaccines.

Unveiling Origin Pitfalls in Metagenomic Surveillance for Emerging Infectious Diseases: Parvoviruses as a Model

iMetaMed, Volume 1, Issue 1, September 2025.
A diverse reagent‐associated virome, including parvoviruses, misleads zoonotic surveillance. By leveraging large language models (ChatGPT‐4o), we construct a virus discovery data framework (PVDDC) and ParvoDB to access and correct host misattributions, thereby enhancing the accuracy of metagenomic surveillance for emerging zoonotic diseases.

Comparative analysis of the extent of protein–protein interactions in icosahedral viral capsids

Protein Science, Volume 34, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Nonenveloped viruses package, carry, and deliver their genomes to the targeted cells using protein shells known as capsids. The viral capsids come in different shapes and sizes, most exhibiting helical or icosahedral symmetries. Here, we analyzed 634 icosahedral capsids at high resolution (<4 Å) from 39 virus families with T‐numbers ranging ...

Impact of Virus‐Mediated Modifications in Bacterial Communities on the Accumulation of Soil Organic Carbon

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 30, August 14, 2025.
This study illustrates the impact of viruses on carbon cycling in soils with different availabilities of carbon. In conditions of low carbon availability, viruses adopt a lysogenic lifestyle, integrate into the host genomes and facilitate the degradation of carbon.

Opportunistic sampling from the near‐threatened Alexandrine parakeet uncovers genomes of a novel parvovirus and beak and feather disease virus

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 103, Issue 7, Page 416-421, July 2025.
Birds are known to harbour a wide range of pathogenic viruses, including the beak and feather disease virus (BFDV; species, Circovirus parrot), which poses a significant threat to the conservation of endangered avian species. This study reports the genomic identification and characterisation of a novel psittaciform chaphamaparvovirus (PsChPV‐6) and ...

BIOHAZ scientific opinion on the equivalence of an alternative heat treatment process of feathers and down

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract The European Commission requested EFSA to provide a scientific opinion on the equivalence between the heat treatment process of feathers and down with dry heat to a temperature of 100°C for 30 min and the treatment set up in Commission Regulation (EU) No 142/2011, in terms of inactivation of relevant pathogens.

Infection by Adenovirus Type 2 in a Short‐Tailed Bat in Mexico

Case Reports in Veterinary Medicine, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
A short‐tailed female bat (Carollia perspicillata), 1 year old, died without apparent signs of the disease while on display at an amusement park in the Municipality of Montemorelos, Nuevo León, Mexico. Amphophilic nuclear inclusion bodies were observed in the intestinal epithelia, corresponding to the virus of the adenovirus genera. Although there have

High‐Throughput Sequencings Revealed That Gut Microbiota Dysbiosis is Implicated in Gouty Arthritis of Red‐Crowned Crane (Grus japonensis)

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The red‐crowned crane (Grus japonensis) is one of the rarest cranes with a global population of less than 4000 individuals. The population of red‐crowned crane could be influenced by health threats, including metabolic and infectious diseases. In the Wildlife Rescue Center of Suining County of Jiangsu Province, gouty arthritis (GA) was observed in all ...

Virome of Australia’s most endangered parrot in captivity evidenced of harboring hitherto unknown viruses

Microbiology Spectrum
The detection of emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) within endangered animal populations is increasing rapidly because of many factors, such as anthropogenic influences and climate change. Their impacts can be extensive and may further contribute to the
