Duck Orbivirus and Egg Production: A Newly Identified Duck Orbivirus Is the Etiological Agent of Egg Production Decline in Chinese Breeder Ducks

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Field samples from breeder duck farms with egg‐production decline were subjected to viral detection, genome sequencing, and virus isolation. Experimental infection demonstrated that duck orbivirus (DORV) causes a significant and persistent reduction in egg production in breeder ducks.

Effect of goose parvovirus and duck circovirus coinfection in ducks

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Research, 2020
Abstract Introduction Coinfection of goose parvovirus (GPV) and duck circovirus (DuCV) occurs commonly in field cases of short beak and dwarfism syndrome (SBDS). However, whether there is synergism between the two viruses in replication and pathogenicity remains undetermined.

Enhancing Meat Quality Through Dietary Fiber: Insights Into the Gut Microbiota‐Derived Short‐Chain Fatty Acids‐Muscle Axis

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary fiber (DF) modulates meat quality through the gut‐muscle axis by reshaping gut microbiota, improving intestinal integrity, reducing inflammation, and regulating muscle metabolism. These mechanisms influence muscle fiber characteristics and post‐mortem biochemistry, thereby enhancing tenderness, juiciness, color, flavor, and nutritional value of

Effects of an Organic Acid Blend on Growth Performance, Redox Homeostasis, and Intestinal Microbiota of Broilers in an Antibiotic‐Free Production System Under Winter Environmental Challenges

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Schematic summary of the effects of organic acids on growth performance and gut health‐related parameters in broilers. ABSTRACT This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of an organic acid blend on growth performance, redox homeostasis, and intestinal microbiota of broilers raised in an antibiotic‐free system during the winter season in China ...

Immune-iron homeostasis deciphers resistance divergence to Riemerella anatipestifer in ducks

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Riemerella anatipestifer (RA) causes substantial economic losses in global waterfowl production. This study compared immune responses and iron metabolism of ducks against RA infection between commercial White Kaiya ducks (WK) and native Ji’an Red ...

Reception Baseline Assessment and ‘small acts’ of micro‐resistance

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In September 2021, following the global COVID‐19 pandemic, the Department for Education introduced a national standardised digital Reception Baseline Assessment (RBA) for all English 4‐year‐old children. We analyse RBA and its associated Quality Monitoring Visits, as a further intensification of the new public management of early years ...

‘I was treated as a deficit’: Immigrant teachers' career progression in Australia

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Immigrant teachers have long been recruited through skilled and employer‐sponsored migration schemes to address teacher shortages in Australia, yet their career trajectories remain constrained by systemic inequities that limit their integration and professional development opportunities.

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.
