Chromosome‐scale genome assembly of the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus sp.1

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 640-664, April 2026.
Anastrepha fraterculus sp. 1 is a major fruit fly pest in Argentina, currently controlled through chemical treatments and traps. This study aims to enhance the genomic understanding of this species to support the development of sterile insect technique as well as the use of innovative technologies.

Challenges and opportunities in mitigating sarcoptic mange in wild South American camelids

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 1, January 2026.
Wild South American camelids—vicuña and guanaco—face threats from sarcoptic mange, a contagious skin disease linked to severe population declines. Despite its impact, major gaps remain in understanding disease dynamics. This review summarizes current knowledge, identifies key data and management gaps, and outlines urgent actions for effective ...

A bacterial glycoengineered antigen for improved serodiagnosis of porcine brucellosis [PDF]

, 2016
Brucellosis is a highly zoonotic disease that affects animals and human beings. Brucella suis is the etiological agent of porcine brucellosis and one of the major human brucellosis pathogens.

A new phylogeny of Anastrepha (Diptera: Tephritidae) based on nuclear loci obtained by phylogenomic methods

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
We present an extensive phylogenetic analysis, based on 293 nuclear loci and 728 individuals representing 237 species of Anastrepha, the largest and most economically important New World genus of Tephritidae. The analysis strongly supports the monophyly of most Anastrepha species groups, also revealing previously unknown relationships among species and

Spatial expansions and travelling waves of rabies in vampire bats [PDF]

, 2016
A major obstacle to anticipating the cross-species transmission of zoonotic diseases and developing novel strategies for their control is the scarcity of data informing how these pathogens circulate within natural reservoir populations.

The Germination and Subsequent Development of Cocoa Seedlings (Theobroma cacao L.) Are Subject to Influence From the Pregerminative Methods Employed

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In Peru, cocoa production has increased significantly, thereby establishing a prominent position for this crop in the country’s agricultural landscape. The effect of different pregerminative methods on seed germination of cocoa ecotypes and their influence on seedling development in nursery were evaluated.

Diagnostic Performance of Rose Bengal, Competitive ELISA, and Native Hapten (NH) Assays in S19 Mass‐Vaccinated Cattle in an Endemic Brucellosis Environment

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Controlling bovine brucellosis requires reliable diagnostics and effective vaccination strategies. We evaluated the performance of three serological assays—the rose bengal test (RBT), competitive ELISA (cELISA), and agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) with native hapten (NH)+lipopolysaccharide (LPS) antigen—following Brucella abortus S19 vaccination under ...

Sustained contraceptive‐level plasma concentrations of 4,4′‐dinitrocarbanilide in free‐ranging urban feral pigeons fed a custom bait Niveles plasmáticos altos y sostenidos de 4,4′‐dinitrocarbanilida en palomas domésticas libres alimentadas con un cebo anticonceptivo

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 4, December 2025.
We assessed the acceptability and consumption of a custom‐developed nicarbazin bait for feral pigeons, inferred its contraceptive efficacy, and evaluated the reversibility of its effects upon cessation of treatment. Only feral pigeons consumed the bait, except for one eared dove that also ingested the food. Continuous administration of this bait raised
