Detection of Porcine Circovirus 3 in Wildlife Species in Spain
Pathogens, 2020 Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3) is the third member of the family Circoviridae, genus Circovirus, able to infect swine. A high prevalence of viral DNA has been recorded in wild boars. Recently, PCV-3 DNA was identified in Italian wild ruminants.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Domestic rabbits of different body sizes differ disproportionately in the length of their tooth row or the length of their diastema. Abstract In various domestic mammals, smaller breeds tend to have proportionally larger teeth, whereas this is not a universal trend across mammals.

Can Herbivore Feeding Preferences Reinforce the Female‐Biased Sex Ratio in an Alpine Willow? [PDF]
Ecol EvolSex‐biased herbivory can vary among co‐occurring herbivores and across the season. Sequential herbivory by species with different feeding preferences may influence the population dynamics of dioecious plants, particularly if early‐season herbivory alters plant traits that affect subsequent foraging decisions.

Tracing the evolutionary history of the morpho‐anatomy of baculum in primates
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Animal morphology reflects both evolutionary history and present‐day adaptation. Male mammal copulatory structures such as the baculum (penile bone) are ideal for studying these processes because of their complexity and high interspecific variability. In primates, however, research has focused mostly on baculum length.

Ecography, EarlyView.The abundance center hypothesis (ACH) posits that species abundance peaks at distribution centers; however, empirical support remains inconsistent. This study tested the generality of the ACH and investigated species traits as mediators of abundance–distance relationships.

Demographic buffering in natural populations: A multi‐level perspective
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.We introduce a multi‐level framework that unites stochastic elasticities with nonlinear selection to test demographic buffering. Applying it across mammals reveals a key insight: ecological robustness to variability often decouples from evolutionary constraint, reshaping how we understand resilience under environmental stochasticity.

Simple Method for Establishing Primary Leporidae Skin Fibroblast Cultures
Cells, 2021 Commercial hare and rabbit immortalized cell lines are extremely limited regarding the many species within the lagomorpha order. To overcome this limitation, researchers and technicians must establish primary cell cultures derived from biopsies or ...
