Subclade K influenza A (H3N2) viruses display partial immune escape with preserved cross-neutralisation in a UK population

open access: yes
ABSTRACT We examined whether the recent emergence of influenza A(H3N2) subclade K, associated with an unusually early influenza season in the Northern hemisphere, was accompanied by a reduction in human population immunity. Using virus neutralisation assays on pre-epidemic human sera collected in May 2025, we found evidence of moderate ...

The relationship between form and function of the carnivore mandible

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2487-2506, September 2026.
Abstract Dietary morphology diversified extensively in Carnivoraformes (living Carnivora and their stem relatives) during the Cenozoic (the last 66 million years) as they evolved to capture, handle, and process new animal and plant diets. We used 3D geometric morphometrics, mechanical advantage, and finite element analysis to test the evolutionary ...

Molecular Epidemiology of Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus Circulating in Fat‐Tailed Sheep in Bangladesh

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study reports the molecular detection and genetic characterization of peste des petits ruminants virus in fat‐tailed sheep in Bangladesh. Phylogenetic analysis reveals transboundary lineage circulation, highlighting silent virus movement during high‐risk livestock trading periods and the need for strengthened regional surveillance.

Genetic Diversity and Population Structure of Hainan Indigenous Pig Breeds Revealed by Microsatellite and mtDNA D-Loop Analysis

open access: yesAnimals
This study investigated the genetic diversity and population structure of five Hainan indigenous pig breeds (147 individuals from 7 populations representing 5 breeds: 3 Duntou pig subpopulations (DT-DZ, DT-SJ, and DT-SG) and four additional breeds ...

Feathers and flu: identifying data gaps in avian influenza host dynamics to prioritize wildlife conservation Plumas y gripe: identificación de datos faltantes en la dinámica de hospedadores de la influenza aviar para priorizar la conservación de la vida silvestre

open access: yesWildlife Monographs, Volume 225, Issue 1, September 2026.
We describe the host response continuum for highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV), including the continuum of host responses to HPAIV infection and exposure based on the primary axis of host competence, ability to infect other hosts, and host vulnerability.

Global population structures and demographic history of Suillus luteus, a pine co‐introduced ectomycorrhizal fungus associated with exotic forestry and invasion

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2964-2979, September 2026.
Global phylogenomic tree and phylogenetic network of Suillus luteus and its closely related species. Summary Human colonization since the 19th century has resulted in the global spread of pines beyond their original northern boreal distribution. Although the introduction history of pines is documented through historical records, little is known about ...

Transition from Quadrivalent to Trivalent Influenza Vaccination Compared with Continued Quadrivalent Vaccination for Preventing Severe Influenza Outcomes in Populations in Indonesia: Implications from the 2025–2026 Epidemiological Landscape

open access: yesActa Medica Indonesiana
Seasonal influenza remains a global public health challenge, with an estimated 1 billion infections and 290,000-650,000 respiratory deaths each year.

Last Tile Added to a Mosaic: Phylogenetic Placement of Enigmatic Freshwater Fish Leucalburnus satunini (Cypriniformes: Leuciscidae) Uncovered

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 718-727, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Subfamily Leuciscinae, the largest freshwater fish group of the western Palearctic region, has been widely studied, including the phylogenetic relationships between its species and genera. However, until now, one genus completely escaped attention in this regard. Even though several works hypothesised about its evolutionary relationships based

Quaternary Climate Oscillations Shape Genetic Diversity and Spatial Structure of Viola hybanthoides (Violaceae) Endemic to Danxia Landscape

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We adopted ddRAD‐seq and chloroplast genome sequencing to explore the genetic characteristics of the danxia‐endemic species Viola hybanthoides. This species exhibits extremely low within‐population genetic diversity and obvious genetic differentiation, which is mainly driven by habitat fragmentation, restricted gene flow and Quaternary climatic changes.

Genomic dissection of the clonal background and global dissemination of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae CG23-KL57 lineage

open access: yesNature Communications
The emergence of multidrug-resistant and hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae represents a growing threat to global public health. Here we investigate the genomic epidemiology and evolutionary dynamics of emerging K.
