Effects of vaccination with Brucella melitensis, strains Rev 1 ΔeryCD and Rev 1, on the reproductive system of young male goats
Rev Argent Microbiol. 2024 Mar 6:S0325-7541(24)00005-1. doi: 10.1016/j.ram.2023.11.005. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe present study evaluates the effects of vaccination with Brucella melitensis strains Rev 1 ΔeryCD and Rev 1 on the reproductive system of male goats. Three groups, each of them consisting of 15 six-month-old brucellosis-free male goats, were studied. The first group was vaccinated with the Rev 1 ΔeryCD strain, the second group received Rev 1 and the third group was inoculated with sterile physiological saline solution. The dose of both strains was of 1×109CFU/ml. Over the course of the five months of ...

Isoetes candelariensis, a new species of Isoetaceae (Lycopodiidae) from Argentina
An Acad Bras Cienc. 2024 Mar 4;96(1):e20230087. doi: 10.1590/0001-3765202420230087. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTIsoetes candelariensis is a new species of Isoetaceae from Misiones, Argentina. This species is ephemeral, and grows on basaltic bedrock outcrop pools, in Urutau Reserve from Candelaria Department. This taxon differs from other aquatic Isoetes in this region by the unique combination of characters of its leaves, ligule, labium and megaspore ornamentation.PMID:38451596 | DOI:10.1590/0001-3765202420230087 (Source: An Acad Bras Cienc)

Gastropod invasions in anthropogenically impacted impoundments in South Africa: tracing their origins and exploring field evidence of parasite spillback and amplification
Int J Parasitol. 2024 Mar 5:S0020-7519(24)00050-X. doi: 10.1016/j.ijpara.2024.02.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTInvasive snails are associated with ecological problems in freshwater bodies worldwide. However, their impact on the transmission of digenean infections remain underreported. In the present study, 1708 specimens representing four snail species were sampled from four impoundments in the Limpopo River system in South Africa. Gyraulus chinensis (Planorbidae), Physella acuta (Physidae) and Pseudosuccinea columella (Lymnaeidae), which are invasive, were found in all the sampling sites. In contrast, the native lymn...
