Comparative evaluation of novel African swine fever virus (ASF) antibody detection techniques derived from specific ASF viral genotypes with the OIE internationally prescribed sero... por Gallardo, C., Soler Garzón, Alvaro, Nieto, R., Carrascosa, A.L., Mia, G.M. de, Bishop, Richard P., Martins, C., Fasina, F.O., Couacy-Hyman, E., Heath, L., Pelayo, V., Martin, E., Simon, A., Martin, R., Okurut, A.R., Lekolol, I., Okoth, Edward A., Arias, Marisa

“…The antibody detection results generated using new antigen-specific tests, developed in this study, which are based on production of antigen fractions generated by infection and virus purification from COS-1 cells, showed strong concordance with the OIE tests. We therefore conclude that the lack of success is not attributable to antigenic polymorphism and may be related to the specific characteristics of the local breeds African pigs.…”

Biology of Aganaspis daci (Hymenoptera: Figitidae), parasitoid of Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae): Mode of reproduction, biological parameters and superparasitism por De-Pedro, Luis, Tormos, José, Asís, Josep D., Sabater-Munoz, Beatriz, Beitia, Francisco J.

“…Additionally, positive mating status showed a significant negative effect on longevity (14-22 days), but no significant differences on fertility, percentage parasitism, induced mortality or population reduction between mated and unmated females. A strong effect of the age of females on fertility and percentage of parasitism was also found, with both decreasing with increasing female age and a similar oviposition pattern for mated and unmated females. …”

The importance of health co-benefits in macroeconomic assessments of UK Greenhouse Gas emission reduction strategies por Tarp Jensen H, Keogh-Brown MR, Smith, R.D., Chalabi Z, Dangour, Alan D., Davies, M., Edwards, P., Garnett, Tara, Givoni M, Griffiths U, Hamilton I, Jarrett J, Roberts I, Wilkinson P, Woodend, John, Haines A

“…Our urban transport strategy (with cleaner vehicles and increased active travel) brings important health co-benefits and is likely to be strongly cost-effective; our food and agriculture strategy (based on abatement technologies and reduction in livestock production) brings worthwhile health co-benefits, but is unlikely to eliminate net costs unless new technological measures are included; our household energy efficiency strategy is likely to break even only over the long term after the investment programme has ceased (beyond our 20 year time horizon). …”
