• The first complete genomic sequence of canine distemper virus from wild boar in northeast China was obtained. • Phylogenetic analysis showed that this wild boar CDV strain belongs to the Arctic lineage. • Wild boars in northeast China have detectable level of anti-CDV neutralizing antibodies, with a positive percentage of 18.3% (11/60).

Embryo transfer (ET) is a valuable reproductive technology in pigs, albeit its efficiency remains significantly lower than that of natural mating or artificial insemination (AI), owing to high embryonic death rates. Critical for embryo survival and pregnancy success is the placenta, which supports conceptus development through nutrient exchange, hormone production, and immune modulation. Alterations in placental development and function may therefore underlie the reduced efficiency of ET.

This study aims to identify the role of various natural, socioeconomic, and demographic factors in the development of the African swine fever (ASF) epizootic among wild boar in the Russian Federation (RF) from 2007 to 2023. In this study, particular emphasis was placed on testing the significance of wild boar population density as a key factor contributing to the spread of ASF within this population. During the study period, 1711 outbreaks in wild boars were reported in the RF, accounting for 41.

Natal dispersal is a key process in ecology and evolution. Similarities of dispersal patterns between relatives can lead to small-scale kin structure within populations with consequences for population dynamics and genetics. Most studies have focused on birds, lizards, and small mammals.

Background: The Amazon region is home to more than 30% of the sand flies species in Colombia, including vectors of Leishmania mainly in the genus Lutzomyia and Psychodopygus. Advances in morphological and molecular taxonomy of sand flies facilitate the development of updated and robust species inventories in understudied areas, such as the departments of Amazonas and Caquetá. Currently, integrating the detection of blood meal sources and Leishmania DNA represents a key approach under the "One Health" concept by providing insights into human and animal health and the dynamics of different ecosystems.

In September 2023, Sweden experienced its first ever outbreak of African swine fever (ASF). One year later, in September 2024, Sweden was declared free from ASF. One of the first actions taken toward control and eradication was an intensive search for wild boar carcasses.
