First identification of bacterial endosymbionts in three South-American spittlebug pests: Notozulia entreriana, Deois mourei and Deois knoblauchii
(Alma Mater Studiorum, Università di Bologna, 2022-06)Spittlebugs cause major pasture damage in the Neotropics. As most xylem-feeders, they depend on microbial symbionts to supply essential amino acids to their diet. Here, the obligate nutritional endosymbiont ‘Candidatus ... -
First isolation of Leptospira borgpetersenii from Fetuses of Wild boars (Sus scrofa)
(2017-02-07)Leptospirosis is a worldwide zoonose and is endemic in many countries. This zoonosis is maintained in nature by chronic renal infection of carrier animals, being rodents and other small mammals the most important reservoirs. ... -

(Bioone, 2013-12-01)We isolated Leptospira strains from renal tissue samples of Asiatic red-bellied squirrels Callosciurus erythraeus, captured in Argentina. In December 2008, we captured 34 squirrels in the province of Santa Fe during a short ... -
First record of males of the invasive eucalyptus pest species Leptocybe invasa Fisher & LaSalle, 2004 (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae: Tetrastichinae) from South America
(Forschungs Museum Koenig, 2019-12)The “blue gum chalcid”, Leptocybe invasa is a pest of eucalyptus worldwide. It has an Australian origin and has expanded into Asia, Europe, Africa and America. L. invasa females were reported from South America in the last ... -
First report of Anaplasma marginale infection in goats, Brazil
(Public Library of Science, 2018-08)Anaplasma marginale, the causative agent of bovine anaplasmosis, is a tick-borne bacterium that causes significant economic losses for cattle industries and is increasingly being detected in other animal species. Rhipicephalus ... -
First report of Chrysodeixis includens nucleopolyhedrovirus (ChinNPV) infecting Chrysodeixis includens (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in Argentina
(2018-09)Typical baculovirus infection symptoms were observed in Chrysodeixis includens Walker (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) larvae from a laboratory rearing in Tucumán, Argentina. Scanning electron microscopy revealed the occurrence ... -
First report of isolation and molecular characterization of bubaline herpesvirus 1 (BuHV1) from Argentinean water buffaloes
(2014-11)Herpesviruses have mainly co-evolved with their hosts for millions of years. However, bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV1) and related ruminant alphaherpesviruses have been reported to cross the species barrier. Bubaline herpesvirus ... -
First report of pathogenic Leptospira spp. in Tadarida brasiliensis bats (family Molossidae) and Eptesicus furinalis (family Vespertilionidae) of Argentina. New host species in this country? = Primer reporte de Leptospira spp. patógena en murciélagos Tadarida brasiliensis (familia: Molossidae) y Eptesicus furinalis (familia: Vespertilionidae) en Argentina. ¿Nuevas especies hospedadoras en el país?
(Elsevier, 2021-09)Leptospirosis is an endemic disease caused by Leptospira spp., a bacterium that affects animals and humans. In recent years, the number of reports of leptospirosis in wild animals has increased, which highlights the need ... -
First report of Trichinella spiralis from the white-eared (Didelphis albiventris) and the thick-tailed opossum (Lutreolina crassicaudata) in central Argentina
(Springer, 2014-09)Trichinellosis is a zoonotic disease caused by nematodes of the genus Trichinella. Humans, who are the final hosts, acquire the infection by eating raw or undercooked meat of different animal origin. Trichinella spiralis ... -
Fitness of drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis and the impact on the transmission among household contacts
(Elsevier, 2014-12)There has been an on-going debate on whether the development of drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis reduces its relative fitness and its ability to cause disease. The aim of this study was to explore this ... -
FMD empty capsids combined with the immunostant particle adjuvant -ISPA or ISA206 induce protective immunity against foot and mouth disease virus
(Elsevier, 2021-05)Foot and Mouth Disease Virus (FMDV) causes economy losses and is controlled by vaccination in many countries. Vaccine formulations based on empty capsids or Virus-Like Particles (VLPs) have the advantage of avoiding the ... -
