Drivers of bat researchers’ intent to adopt field hygiene practices

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Infectious disease is a growing threat to wildlife, with zoonotic transmission most likely at the human–wildlife interface. One underappreciated activity at this interface is fieldwork with wild animals, but associated risks can be mitigated through field hygiene (FH) practices, such as using personal protective equipment and other appropriate

Azelaic Acid-Mediated Resistance in Rice Against Infection by Bipolaris oryzae

Plants
Brown spot, caused by the fungus Bipolaris oryzae, has led to significant yield losses in rice production worldwide. This study hypothesized that azelaic acid (AzA) could reduce brown spot symptoms in rice leaves by potentiating biochemical defense ...

Using customs data to understand overlooked trade in non‐CITES birds between Africa and Asia

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The international trade in live birds poses risks to animals, people, and biodiversity. To effectively mitigate these risks, decision‐makers require information on the volume, dynamics, and direction of trade. Despite Africa once being the largest exporter of birds by region, very little data exist on recent trade in live birds not listed on ...

Improving the use of expert opinion in disease risk analysis for conservation translocations

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Conservation translocations are subject to considerable uncertainty and risk, of which disease is one of the most recognized. To address disease risks, several protocols for qualitative disease risk analysis (qDRA) exist and are used for responsible conservation translocation planning.

Physiological and Biochemical Aspects of Silicon-Mediated Resistance in Maize against Maydis Leaf Blight

Plants
Maydis leaf blight (MLB), caused by the necrotrophic fungus Bipolaris maydis, has caused considerable yield losses in maize production. The hypothesis that maize plants with higher foliar silicon (Si) concentration can be more resistant against MLB was ...

Screening of antioxidant activity, antimicrobial properties, and chemical profiles of 31 plant species against Vibrio and Pseudomonas in the Ecuadorian shrimp industry

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Opportunistic pathogens represent a significant threat to shrimp aquaculture, as they can reduce productivity and cause substantial economic losses. Plant‐derived compounds have been investigated as potential alternatives for controlling bacterial infections associated with shrimp farming.

Prenatal diagnosis of cardiac rhabdomyoma: implications for predicting tuberous sclerosis complex and guiding perinatal management

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 68, Issue 1, Page 88-98, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To identify prenatal predictors of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) in fetuses with one or more cardiac rhabdomyomas (CR), evaluate an integrated multimodal diagnostic workflow using fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and trio whole‐exome sequencing (trio‐WES) and characterize perinatal outcomes.
