Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 3, May 2026.We investigated nest predation in the endangered Canarian houbara bustard using 229 artificial nests and camera traps. Ravens were identified as the main predators, and predation rates were influenced by raven density, vegetation cover, stone cover, and road density.

Perceptual strategies in active and passive hearing of neotropical bats [PDF]
, 2008 Basic spectral and temporal sound properties, such as frequency content and timing, are evaluated by the auditory system to build an internal representation of the external world and to generate auditory guided behaviour. Using echolocating bats as model

Obesity and Natural Products: Mechanisms, Therapeutic Potential, and Future Directions
Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.Natural products such as EGCG, berberine, curcumin, and capsaicin modulate key metabolic pathways including AMPK activation, adipogenesis inhibition, and inflammatory signaling. While clinical trials demonstrate modest benefits on body weight and metabolic parameters, translational challenges related to bioavailability, dose feasibility, and regulatory

Cohorts of immature Pteropus bats show interannual variation in Hendra virus serology
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 3, Page 521-537, March 2026.Pteropus bat with offspring, photo taken by Manuel Ruiz‐Aravena. Abstract Understanding the drivers of seasonal disease outbreaks remains a fundamental challenge in disease ecology. Periodic outbreaks can be driven by several seasonally varying factors, including pulses of susceptible individuals through births, changes in host behaviour and social ...

Cell lines from the Egyptian fruit bat are permissive for modified vaccinia Ankara
Virus Research, 2009 Bats are reservoir hosts for a spectrum of infectious diseases. Some pathogens (such as Hendra, Nipah and Marburg viruses) appear to use mainly fruit bats as reservoir. We describe designed immortalization of primary fetal cells from the Egyptian fruit bat (Rousettus aegyptiacus) to facilitate isolation and characterization of pathogens associated with

Authentication of the R06E Fruit Bat Cell Line
Viruses, 2012 Fruit bats and insectivorous bats are believed to provide a natural reservoir for a wide variety of infectious diseases. Several lines of evidence, including the successful isolation of infectious viruses, indicate that Marburg virus and Ravn virus have ...
