Impacts of rodents in piggeries in Australia – review and pilot impact study

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 2177-2189, March 2026.
Rodent impacts in Australian piggeries are under‐researched, with limited data on economic losses and control costs. A review and pilot study found average losses of AUD$100 000 annually. Key concerns include disease, damage, and control expenses.

Exploring the Causal Links Between Toxoplasma gondii Infection and Risk of Brain Tumors: A Bidirectional Mendelian Randomization Analysis

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis demonstrated that genetic liability to malignant brain tumors was significantly associated with increased odds of Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) seropositivity, suggesting that individuals genetically predisposed to brain tumors may have a higher susceptibility to T. gondii infection.

Risk Factors and Coinfection Dynamics of Pathogens in Wild Turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo) From Pennsylvania, USA

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We determined the associations and risk factors of infection by lymphoproliferative disease virus (LPDV), reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV), three avian Mycoplasma species, and internal parasites in Pennsylvania wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo). Active surveillance of parasites and pathogens was conducted over four years and four regions across ...
