Distinct Lineages of Bufavirus in Wild Shrews and Nonhuman Primates

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2015
Viral metagenomic analysis identified a new parvovirus genome in the intestinal contents of wild shrews in Zambia. Related viruses were detected in spleen tissues from wild shrews and nonhuman primates. Phylogenetic analyses showed that these viruses are

Immature Excitatory Neurons in the Postnatal Ferret Paralaminar Nuclei and Their Relationship to the Amygdala Across Species

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 4, April 2026.
Left: Schematic of a coronal section of the adult ferret brain, showing the location of a collection of Dcx+ cells (green) ventrally to the amygdala (grey) in a region homologous to the PL in other species. These cells are spatially distributed either as individual cells in a dispersed field or in clusters (1). Cells in the ferret PL display molecular (

Genomic Analysis and Population Divergence Driven by Geographic Isolation in Neotetracus sinensis

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We generated the first chromosome‐level reference genome for Neotetracus sinensis and resequenced populations from the Gaoligong and Wuliang Mountains to investigate divergence across the Hengduan “sky‐island” landscape. Genomic data reveal strong population structure with negligible gene flow and parallel demographic histories shaped by Pleistocene ...

Beavers on Ice: Factors Influencing Emergence Phenology in Boreal Canada

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
Climate‐driven changes in ice phenology influence the timing of spring emergence of a non‐hibernating ice‐bound mammal, the North American beaver. ABSTRACT The influence of climate change on emergence phenology of hibernating mammals in northern latitudes is receiving increased attention, yet for freshwater semi‐aquatic mammals such as beavers, which ...

Antimicrobial Resistance Profile of Foodborne Salmonella spp. and E. coli Isolates from Rodents and Shrews in Morogoro Municipality, Tanzania

Journal of Applied Veterinary Science and Technology
Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a pressing global public health issue that affects both human and animal health. Small mammals, such as rodents and shrews, represent a significant reservoir of zoonotic infections.

Adaptive Genetic Variation in Black‐and‐White Snub‐Nosed Monkeys (Rhinopithecus bieti): Low Diversity and the Role of Balancing Selection

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We investigated the adaptive genetic diversity within a population of Rhinopithecus bieti using amplicon sequencing. From 47 individuals, we identified 16 MHC class I sequences, revealing a low level of adaptive genetic variation. Although evidence for balancing selection, including positive selection and trans‐species polymorphism, was observed, these
