Hemipteran vectors of stylet‐borne plant viruses: Aphids lead the charge

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Among all sap‐feeding hemipterans, aphids stand out by far as the most important vectors of noncirculative plant viruses. Compared to whiteflies and mealybugs, aphids’ highly specialized stylet anatomy and distinct feeding behaviors contribute, together with other features of their biology, to their remarkable efficiency in transmitting stylet‐borne ...

Effects of Vector Density on Blood Parasite Spread and Health Consequences for Avian Hosts: An Experimental Epidemiology Blueprint

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
In an experimental epidemiology setup, groups of pigeons were exposed to different numbers of infective malaria vectors. Vector number explained the speed of transmission, the final prevalence, and changes in host behavior. ABSTRACT Vector density plays a critical role in the transmission dynamics of vector‐borne diseases and thus in their health and ...

A remotely operated blood sampling and sedative administration device in freely moving pinnipeds

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract A remotely operated device for use with freely moving pinnipeds was designed and successfully developed for the collection of blood samples and the administration of sedatives via an indwelling, venous catheter. The performance of the sampler, called the ‘Mossquito’, was demonstrated on six wild caught, young‐of‐the‐year grey seals ...

Dose‐Dependent Effects of Simulated Clinical Radiotherapy on the Structure and Properties of Root Dentine

open access: yesAustralian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Head and neck radiotherapy (HNRT) can expose teeth to moderate radiation doses, yet the effects on root dentine under clinically relevant conditions remain unclear. This in vitro study compared dentine subjected to 0, 30, or 50 Gy IMRT. Palatal roots from 35 maxillary molars were allocated to non‐irradiated, 30 Gy (oropharyngeal simulation ...
