Genotyping Reveals Potential Sources of Human Leptospirosis Outbreaks in Aotearoa New Zealand

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 1, Page 54-64, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction The introduction of PCR testing for leptospirosis in Aotearoa New Zealand has reduced the availability of serotyping data, and current diagnostic PCRs do not routinely genotype Leptospira. This study genotyped Leptospira from PCR‐confirmed human cases between 2016 and 2023 and compared them with genotypes found in animals to ...

Genetic Insights Into Human‐Driven Hybridization, Cultural Shifts, and Ecological Consequences of Feral Pigs (Sus scrofa) in Hawai‘i

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Polynesian pigs were brought to the Hawaiian Islands with Polynesian settlement in the mid‐1200s and represent part of the cultural legacy of Hawai‘i. Yet, the introduction of European pigs since 1778 and onward has put into question the ancestral composition of contemporary animals, and conservation efforts have been challenged by tension between the ...
