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
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
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

Initiation of RNA Polymerization and Polymerase Encapsidation by a Small dsRNA Virus. [PDF]
During the replication cycle of double-stranded (ds) RNA viruses, the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) replicates and transcribes the viral genome from within the viral capsid.

Metagenomic Insights into the Sewage RNA Virosphere of a Large City
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

Molecular Diversity of Partial-Length Genomic Segment 2 of Human Picobirnavirus
<i>Objectives:</i> This study was carried out in order to evaluate the efficacy of the recently developed picobirnavirus (PBV) sets of primers and to establish the phylogenetic relationships of Argentine strains with PBV strains isolated in China and the USA. <i>Methods:</i> Thirteen fecal specimens tested as positive for PBV by
