Monitoring of radioactive cesium in wild boars captured inside the difficult-to-return zone in Fukushima Prefecture over a 5-year period

Scientific Reports, 2022
Following the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident in 2011, tissue samples from wild boar (Sus scrofa) outside the evacuation zone (difficult-to-return zone, DRZ) tended to show high activity concentrations of cesium-137 (137Cs).

[Occurrence of Trichinella spp. in wild boar in Switzerland] [PDF]

, 2009
Trichinellosis is a worldwide occurring zoonosis caused by the intracellular nematode Trichinella spp. One of the main infection sources in Europe is raw or undercooked meat from wild boar.

Chlorophyll b—An Essence of Plant Photosynthesis

Plants
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),

Who's afraid of the big bad boar? Assessing the effect of wild boar presence on the occurrence and activity patterns of other mammals.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Wild boar are considered one the world's worst invasive species and linked to biodiversity loss, competition for resources, predation of native species, and habitat modifications.

Risk of transmission of foot-and-mouth disease by wild animals: infection dynamics in Japanese wild boar following direct inoculation or contact exposure

Veterinary Research, 2022
Understanding of disease dynamics and viral shedding in wild boar and of the potential for disease spreading within wild boar and domestic pig populations is critical for developing effective control and eradication measures for foot-and-mouth disease ...

Invasive wild boar (Sus scrofa) as a functional reservoir for the dynamics of Trichinella in the Patagonia region [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária
Trichinellosis is a zoonotic disease that has been studied mainly in domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domesticus). The cycle involves infection in domestic and wild fauna, which fulfill complex ecological roles, where Trichinella spiralis is reported in wild ...

Expansion of native wild boar populations is a new threat for semi-arid wetland areas

Ecological Indicators, 2021
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.

Intensive monitoring suggests population oscillations and migration in wild boar Sus scrofa in the Pyrenees [PDF]

Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2013
As few studies have analysed local variability in populations of wild boar Sus scrofa in Western Europe in recent years, our understanding of ecological processes currently affecting this species is limited.

Palaeoproteomic Deconvolution of Physical and Genetic Collagen Mixtures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ClassiCOL_v2 uses a novel “peptide patching” framework that treats any collagen sample as a patchwork of peptide sequences derived from phylogenetically related species. This allows the algorithm to simultaneously resolve two previously intractable problems: multi‐species samples and/or database deficiencies.
