Dynamic modeling of a vector-borne disease, from an individual to a metapopulation perspective. Application to plague in central Asia [PDF]

, 2013
International audienceBubonic plague, a zoonotic infection that circulates in wild rodents but is transmissible from them to humans through the bites of infected fleas, is not merely of historical interest.

Risk posed by the HPAI virus H5N1, Eurasian lineage goose/Guangdong clade 2.3.4.4b. genotype B3.13, currently circulating in the US

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The emergence of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5N1), clade 2.3.4.4b, genotype B3.13 in U.S. dairy cattle marks a significant shift in the virus' host range and epidemiological profile. Infected cattle typically exhibit mild clinical signs, such as reduced milk production, mastitis and fever, with morbidity generally below 20% and

Defeating lethal cancer: Interrupting the ecologic and evolutionary basis of death from malignancy

CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, Volume 75, Issue 3, Page 183-202, May/June 2025.
Abstract Despite the advances in cancer prevention, early detection, and treatments, all of which have led to improved cancer survival, globally, there is an increased incidence in cancer‐related deaths. Although each patient and each tumor is wholly unique, the tipping point to incurable disease is common across all patients: the dual capacity for ...

Development of a single‐nucleotide polymorphism panel genotyping system for genetic analysis of Chinese hamsters

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 916-921, May 2025.
Here, we developed a novel Chinese hamster genetic quality detection system using single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers following this process. To obtain SNP loci, we conducted whole genome sequencing on 24 Chinese hamsters. Then, we employed an SNP loci screening criterion that we set up previously and initially screened 214 SNP loci with wide ...

Is What Comes out the Same as What Goes in? A Preliminary Investigation of the Isotopic Impacts of Digestion by Red‐Tailed Hawks (Buteo jamaicensis) and Eurasian Eagle Owls (Bubo bubo)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
Isotope analysis of predator feces and consumed prey remains can be used to non‐invasively track diet and reconstruct past environment and climate conditions. However, one must account for the isotopic difference between diet and feces, as well as the possible influence of digestion on consumed prey tissues.

Effects of habitat and livestock on nest productivity of the Asian houbara Chlamydotis macqueenii in Bukhara Province, Uzbekistan [PDF]

, 2016
To inform population support measures for the unsustainably hunted Asian houbara Chlamydotis macqueenii (IUCN Vulnerable) we examined potential habitat and land-use effects on nest productivity in the Kyzylkum Desert, Uzbekistan.

Testosterone mediates life‐history trade‐offs in female mammals

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 2, Page 871-891, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Hormones mediate life‐history trade‐offs. In female mammals, such trade‐offs have been studied predominantly in the contexts of oestrogen, progesterone and prolactin. We evaluate the hypothesis that prenatal and postnatal testosterone levels structure and regulate trade‐offs in females involving components of reproduction and survival.
