Chlorophyll b—An Essence of Plant Photosynthesis
Chlorophyll (Chl) b is crucial for assembly of the light-harvesting antennae that are required for optimal photosynthetic activity in plants and green algae. Synthesis of its precursor, chlorophyllide (Chlide) b, is catalyzed by Chlide a oxygenase (CAO),

In wild boar, Sus scrofa, from Europe, domestic pig-typical ancestry is traced at varying levels. We hypothesised wild boar with pig-typical gene pool characteristics, i.e., “introgression”, congregate more in peri-urban habitats, because of less shyness

Expansion of native wild boar populations is a new threat for semi-arid wetland areas
Wildlife management and conservation requires monitoring of species distribution and population indicators, especially when the unbalanced demographic changes of some species can affect the whole ecosystem functioning.

Potential effect of managing connectivity to contain disease spread among free‐ranging wild boar (Sus scrofa) in disparate landscapes [PDF]
1. Landscape connectivity is a major factor shaping the spread of pathogens in wildlife populations. By managing connectivity, transmission pathways can be broken and disease spread be contained, particularly in the early phases of an outbreak.

Genotyping of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae in wild boar lung samples [PDF]
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is the etiologic agent of enzootic pneumonia (EP), an important cause of disease-associated losses in swine production and a role of wild boar in recurrent infections can be supposed. Genotypes of M.

DNA Detection Reveals Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex Shedding Routes in Its Wildlife Reservoir the Eurasian Wild Boar [PDF]
Since the intensity and frequency of pathogen shedding by hosts determine the probability of infection through direct and indirect contact, the shedding characterization of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC) in the key host reservoir in Iberia, the
