Metabolic Adaptations to Weight Loss in Obese Senior Dogs: Effects on Energy Expenditure, Protein Turnover, and Voluntary Physical Activity

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Implications of obesity and weight loss (WL) for energy and protein metabolism are not fully understood, particularly in senior dogs. This study evaluated changes in body composition, energy expenditure (EE), protein turnover (PT), and voluntary physical activity (VPA) in senior dogs in maintenance and after 10% and 20% WL.

Urban ants as potential mechanical vectors of pathogenic and antibiotic‐resistant bacteria in a Brazilian hospital

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Nine ant taxa were identified in a Brazilian hospital, with Tapinoma melanocephalum and Dorymyrmex brunneus being the most abundant. Eighty‐five percent of collected ants yielded detectable bacterial growth, including clinically relevant genera such as Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas, Escherichia coli and Pluralibacter.

The host range paradox of Meloidogyne incognita: a physiological and transcriptomic analysis of nine susceptible interactions across six plant orders

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Phylogenetic distance of host does not explain phenotypic differences of Meloidogyne incognita parasitism at 25 dpi. Summary The plant–parasitic nematode Meloidogyne incognita is the pathogen with the broadest host range among all known biotrophic interactions.

Disentangling atmospheric and soil drought: a new stand‐level manipulation approach for mature forests

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Design of the VPDrought experiment in a Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) forest at the Pfynwald research platform. Summary Atmospheric and soil drought are major, yet typically confounded, drivers of tree stress. Rising vapor pressure deficit (VPD) may impair forest function independently of soil moisture decline, yet stand‐scale experimental separation ...
