Abstract Many ectoparasite species serve as vectors for bacteria that are significant to both public and animal health, with wild, domestic synanthropic mammals acting reservoirs. However, limited information exists on the circulation incidence of these in Argentina. We examined diversity, prevalence abundance ectoparasites, along presence Rickettsia spp., Didelphis albiventris Lund (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae) within a rural landscape Pampas region, also analysed variations populations...

Abstract In Argentina, wild pigs ( Sus scrofa ) are represented by boars and feral pigs. These populations inhabit a wide territory due to natural dispersion human translocation. Previous studies in other countries have detected crossbreeding between the different morphotypes, even with domestic This crossing can lead introgression of improved traits population, which would increase invasive potential and, therefore, damage native ecosystems. The aim this work was obtain patterns genetic...

Vector-borne diseases account for nearly 20% of all globally recognised infectious diseases. Within the spectrum flea-borne pathogens, Bartonella and Rickettsia bacteria are prominent, contributing to emergence resurgence on a global scale. This study investigates presence species harboured by fleas collected from wild rodents in northwestern Argentina (NWA). A total 28 three genera seven were assessed. DNA spp. was found 12 (42.8%). Phylogenetic analysis concatenated sequences gltA rpoB...

Porcine Stress Syndrome (PSS) is a disorder codified by the ryanodine receptor 1 gene (RYR1) and affects both animal welfare quality of meat product. As consequence, individuals with this syndrome generate great worldwide economic losses in porcine industry. In Argentina, Buenos Aires Province most involved on activity, productions are to be open field higher frequency pigs diverse pathologies. On other hand, biggest oldest wild population located Atlantic coast Province, which presents...

Hay una gran variedad de artefactos en imágenes que se producen por la interacción entre los equipos y el paciente. Reconocerlos es importante, ya pueden inducir informes erróneos o encubrir patología. Por ello, vez detectados, necesario emplear técnicas para su eliminación. Describimos más frecuentes tomografía computada resonancia magnética. A wide variety of artefacts are observed in diagnostic imaging. They caused by the interaction between equipment and patients. To recognise them is...

The puma ( Puma concolor Linnaeus, 1771) is the top predator with widest distribution in America. Since establishment of European settlers on American continent, populations have experienced significant contractions and reductions their original distribution. In Argentina, management conflict between humans pumas (direct persecution habitat modification) focused reduction or elimination methods, leading to a drastic contraction, even total eradication, as seen Patagonia eastern part country....

El leucismo se define como la falta total o parcial de pigmentación en el cuerpo, exceptuando las partes blandas. Este desorden podría afectar supervivencia y éxito reproductivo del animal. En este trabajo reporta primer caso Eptesicus furinalis Tadarida brasiliensis provincia San Luis, Argentina. Para cada especie, colectó un macho con leucismo, registrándose coloración atípica pelaje dorsal ventral, mientras que los ojos membranas tuvieron normal. Comunicar estos desórdenes pigmentarios...
