Development of a Fully Automated, High‐Throughput Molecular Assay for Detection of Rat Hepatitis E Virus in Routine Diagnostics

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Recently, cases of human infection with rat hepatitis E virus (ratHEV, Rocahepevirus ratti) have been reported worldwide. Due to the significant genetic differences between ratHEV and human HEV genotypes 1–4 (Paslahepevirus balayani), current HEV diagnostic assays are unable to detect ratHEV.

Land use gradients drive spatial variation in Lassa fever host communities in the Eastern Province of Sierra Leone

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 2, Page 296-312, February 2026.
As West Africa urbanises, the risk of Lassa fever may paradoxically decrease. We found the invasive house mouse, a dominant urban species, outcompetes and displaces the primary Lassa virus host. Considering these species interactions is critical for accurately predicting future zoonotic disease patterns.

An integrated social–ecological–evolutionary–phenotypic (SEEP) approach to understanding animal responses to urbanization

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 419-436, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Humans play key roles in shaping the structure and processes of ecosystems globally, especially in cities. This recognition has prompted a recent focus on understanding urban systems via interactions between human social systems and ecological and evolutionary processes.

The behaviour–performance continuum: how does individual variation in locomotor abilities relate to behaviour?

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 486-518, February 2026.
ABSTRACT A series of terminological, technical, conceptual, and statistical challenges present themselves when trying to study correlations between measures of performance abilities (what an animal can do) and behavioural traits (what an animal chooses to do).

Nest boxes as a recovery tool for hollow‐using mammals following fire

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Tree hollows provide crucial habitat for vertebrate species globally, but their decline—particularly following habitat disturbances—has led to the increased use of nest boxes in conservation efforts. In our study, we deployed 54 nest boxes across burnt and unburnt sites after the 2019–2020 Australian megafires and monitored arboreal mammal activity ...
