Improving the use of expert opinion in disease risk analysis for conservation translocations

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Conservation translocations are subject to considerable uncertainty and risk, of which disease is one of the most recognized. To address disease risks, several protocols for qualitative disease risk analysis (qDRA) exist and are used for responsible conservation translocation planning.

In vitro efficacy testing of citronella grass oil against Tritrichomonas foetus trophozoites

Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias
Tritrichomonas foetus, a sexually transmitted parasitic protozoan, causes abortion in cattle. Nitroimidazoles, such as metronidazole, treat bovine trichomonosis, but their use is precluded. Plant extracts might have antiparasitic effects.

Auxin response and PIN‐mediated transport in chlorophyte algae

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Like multicellular plants, green algae respond to auxin and move it across their cells. However, their PIN‐like proteins do not act like plant auxin exporters, suggesting that basic auxin transport evolved early and specialized directional transport appeared later in plant evolution.

Microtubule Inner Protein CFAP77 Contributes to Sperm Motility and Male Fertility in Mice

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1240-1248, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Sperm motility is essential for male fertility, and its regulation is dependent on the structural integrity of the axoneme. The axoneme consists of a conserved “9+2” microtubule arrangement and is supported by microtubule inner proteins. However, the functional significance of many microtubule inner proteins remains unclear.

Trichomonas transmembrane cyclases result from massive gene duplication and concomitant development of pseudogenes.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2010
BackgroundTrichomonas vaginalis has an unusually large genome (approximately 160 Mb) encoding approximately 60,000 proteins. With the goal of beginning to understand why some Trichomonas genes are present in so many copies, we characterized here a family
