Unraveling the impact of dog‐friendly spaces on urban–wildland pumas and other wildlife
As the most widespread large carnivore on the planet, domestic dogs Canis lupus familiaris can pose a major threat to wildlife, even within protected areas (PAs). Growing human presence in PAs, coupled with increasing pet dog ownership underscores the urgency to understand the influence of dogs on wildlife activity and health.

Characterising resistance to Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) in Turnip (Brassica rapa rapa) [PDF]
A Brassica rapa rapa L. line has been identified with high resistance to seven isolates of Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) (including UK 1, CHN 5, CZE 1, CDN 1, GBR 6, POL 1 and UK 4) representing the major pathotypes of the virus.

Cowpea mosaic virus 32- and 60-kilodalton replication proteins target and change the morphology of endoplasmic reticulum membranes [PDF]
Cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV) replicates in close association with small membranous vesicles that are formed by rearrangements of intracellular membranes. To determine which of the viral proteins are responsible for the rearrangements of membranes and the ...

Significant Far‐Right Challenges to Australian Society? The XYZ and AustraliaOne
ABSTRACT Scholars who analyse the Australian far‐right from a criminological or security studies perspective propose that activists and groups pose ‘political’ challenges to Australian society. This paper examines the far‐right news website The XYZ and the AustraliaOne political party, and argues that claims that the far‐right may normalise ...

Characterisation of Hardenbergia mosaic virus and development of microarrays for detecting viruses in plants [PDF]
A virus causing chlorosis and leaf distortion in the Western Australian endemic legume Hardenbergia comptoniana was detected by biological indexing to Chenopodium quinoa and Nicotiana benthamiana. Enzyme linked immuno-sorbent assay (ELISA) using general

ABSTRACT The pest status of pea aphid (Acyrthosiphum pisum H.) in faba bean (Vicia faba L.) cultivation has gained importance because it transmits Pea necrotic yellow dwarf virus (PNYDV), a novel nanovirus in Europe. This study evaluated two faba bean varieties, ‘Fuego’ and ‘GL Sunrise’, grown under sole crop (SC) and intercrop (IC) conditions with oat

Adaptation to extreme environments: A review of Antarctic fish physiology
Abstract Having evolved in the chronically cold and thermally stable waters of the Southern Ocean (SO) for millions of years, Antarctic fish possess a suite of physiological specializations that enable them to survive at temperatures near the freezing point of seawater. Adaptations include the evolution of antifreeze proteins, modifications of membrane

Plant‐Based Production of Human Major Histocompatibility Complex Class II Molecules
ABSTRACT Major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II) protein triggers adaptive immune responses by presenting antigens on antigen‐presenting cells (APCs) to be recognised by CD4+ T cells. Recombinant MHC II proteins are effective for the analysis of peptide‐binding interaction, detection of antigen‐specific T‐cells and clinical testing for donor‐

Exchange of the C-terminal part of VP3 from very virulent infectious bursal disease virus results in an attenuated virus with a unique antigenic structure [PDF]
Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is the major viral pathogen in the poultry industry. Live attenuated serotype 1 vaccine strains are commonly used to protect susceptible chickens during their first 6 weeks of life. Wild-type serotype 1 IBDV strains

Harnessing Natural Diversity and Rational Design for Enhanced Plant Immunity
ABSTRACT Plant pathogens cause crop loss. Genetic resistance, through natural genetic diversity or engineered resistance, can be highly effective in protecting plants from infection. Genetic resistance from wild relatives of crops has been successfully introduced into crops to control pathogen infection.
