Cultivating Resilience in the Informal City: A Systematic Review of Urban Agriculture's Multidimensional Outcomes in Slum Contexts

Geography Compass, Volume 20, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban agriculture (UA) in slums represents a vital yet under‐researched strategy for enhancing food security and community resilience in marginalised urban areas. This systematic review of 104 studies reveals stark contrasts in theoretical approaches: Global North scholarship frames UA through lenses of racial capitalism and gentrification ...

Detection and Genomic Characterization of Novel Respiratory Viruses in US and Mexican Cattle Farms

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Respiratory virus infections in cattle cause an estimated more than $1 billion in production losses and can threaten human health. During February 2024 to May 2025, we employed a One Health approach to surveil for respiratory viruses among cattle, farm workers, and environmental samples from 11 US and Mexican beef or dairy cattle farms.

Metagenomic characterization of swine slurry in a North American swine farm operation

Scientific Reports, 2021
Modern day large-scale, high-density farming environments are inherently susceptible to viral outbreaks, inadvertently creating conditions that favor increased pathogen transmission and potential zoonotic spread. Metagenomic sequencing has proven to be a

Metagenomic Insights into the Sewage RNA Virosphere of a Large City

Viruses, 2020
Sewage-associated viruses can cause several human and animal diseases, such as gastroenteritis, hepatitis, and respiratory infections. Therefore, their detection in wastewater can reflect current infections within the source population. To date, no viral

Novel bisegmented virus (picobirnavirus) of animals, birds and humans

Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Disease, 2014
Picobirnaviruses (PBVs) are novel group of small, nonenveloped, bisegmented and double stranded RNA viruses. PBVs have been identified in the faeces of a broad range of hosts by several international research groups. Since attempts to culture PBV in vitro have not been made to date and no animal model of infection and disease exists.
