Impacts of large herbivores on mycorrhizal fungal communities across the Arctic

Ecography, EarlyView.
Mycorrhizal fungi play an integral role in nutrient and carbon cycling in soils, which may be especially important in the Arctic, one of the world's most soil carbon‐rich regions. Large mammalian herbivores can influence these fungi through their impacts on vegetation and soil conditions, however the strength and prevalence of these interactions in the

Cultivation of Anaplasma ovis in the HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cell lineCultivation of Anaplasma ovis

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2017
The tick-borne bacterium Anaplasma ovis is a widely distributed pathogen affecting sheep, goats and wild ruminants. Here, the HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cell line was used to isolate A.

From shadows to data: first robust population assessment of snow leopards in Pakistan

Ecography, EarlyView.
The snow leopard Panthera uncia is a flagship species of the greater Himalayan region and symbolizes the integrity of this ecological system. Within the greater Himalayas, Pakistan holds special significance as the north of the country represents a confluence of three major mountain ranges (Hindu Kush, Pamir–Karakoram, and Himalaya).

Role of Rhipicephalus bursa larvae in transstadial transmission and endemicity of Babesia ovis in chronically infected sheep

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Babesia ovis, transmitted by Rhipicephalus bursa ticks, is the causative agent of ovine babesiosis, a disease characterized by fever, anemia, hemoglobinuria, and high mortality in sheep.

Sharp Force Trauma and Chop Mark Identification Bias: Experimental Evidence on the Effects of Bone Morphology, Cortical Thickness, and Ax Material

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sharp force trauma (SFT) is the main criterion used to identify chop mark butchery in zooarchaeology, yet its reliability as a diagnostic feature has not been systematically tested. Chop marks reflect both cutting and fracturing processes and exhibit characteristics of both sharp and blunt trauma.

Biological Characteristics and Pathogenicity of Helcococcus ovis Isolated From Clinical Bovine Mastitis in a Chinese Dairy Herd

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Helcococcus ovis (H. ovis) was first reported in ovine subclinical mastitis milk and post-mortem examination organs in Spain and the United Kingdom in 1999; subsequently, it appeared in cattle, horse, goat, and human.

Trap‐dependence in capture–recapture studies: empirical evidence in vertebrates and biological meaning

Oikos, EarlyView.
Capture–recapture (CR) models have been used for decades to estimate population size and demographic rates in natural populations from the monitoring of individuals. One of the most frequent deviations from assumptions required in CR studies is the immediate trap‐dependence that corresponds to the correlation between capture events. We review empirical

Drivers of human attitudes towards wolves Canis lupus in Kazakhstan

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Kazakhstan is recognized as a key stronghold for the grey wolf (Canis lupus). Nonetheless, the wolf status and the dynamics of human‐wolf coexistence in the region remain poorly understood. This study aims to fill that gap by exploring current attitudes towards wolves in Kazakhstan and identify the underlying drivers of these attitudes.

A high‐altitude thermal infrared method for estimating moose abundance and demography in Rocky Mountain National Park, USA

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species. To
