Transposon Ecology and the Octopus Genome

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 3, March 2026.
Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile strands of DNA prevalent in octopus genomes. TE activity in the octopus brain might reflect an organism‐beneficial role in cognition; or could be a deleterious byproduct of TE parasitism. Viewing TEs from a genome‐ecology perspective generates novel predictions about differential expression levels across “genomic ...

Gastrointestinal nematodes of Ovis aries in Eastern Cape, South Africa and an evaluation of current anthelmintic procedures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Humans have known about helminth infections since ancient times. Today half of the human population is plagued by a nematode infection. Nematodes are responsible for billions of dollars in global crop damage annually and have had devastating effects on ...

Meiofauna Biodiversity and Community Structures in the Barents Sea and Nansen Basin Are Influenced by Benthic Spatiotemporal Heterogeneity

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Benthic meiofauna in the Barents Sea were investigated for spatiotemporal variability and taxonomic composition. ABSTRACT Meiobenthic metazoans occur worldwide and are a cornerstone of aquatic ecosystems. Here, we investigate the composition of meiobenthic communities along a transect in the Barents Sea and Nansen Basin and provide the first ...

Safeguarding a Flagship Species: Integrated Surveillance of Cross‐Species Pathogen Transmission in Giant Panda Ecosystems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Emerging infectious diseases increasingly threaten giant pandas and cohabiting species. This review analyzes pathogen transmission risks from domestic animals, wildlife, and vectors and proposes an integrated genomic surveillance framework for early warning and biodiversity conservation.

Global distribution and contexts of interactions between humans and non‐human primates: A systematic review

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 551-568, March 2026.
Abstract Understanding the frequency and socio‐ecological drivers of contacts between humans and non‐human primates (NHPs) is crucial for enhancing coexistence that favours NHP conservation, while limiting negative consequences such as aggressions and cross‐species disease transmission.

Effect of sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) silage and hay against gastrointestinal nematodes in lambs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The objective of the study was to examine the effect of dried and ensiled sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) against two species of gastrointestinal nematodes (Haemonchus contortus, Cooperia curticei) in lambs. Twenty-four days post experimental infection,

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.
