Pharmacological iron-chelation as an assisted nutritional immunity strategy against Piscirickettsia salmonis infection
(BMC, 2020)Salmonid Rickettsial Septicaemia (SRS), caused by Piscirickettsia salmonis, is a severe bacterial disease in the Chilean salmon farming industry. Vaccines and antibiotics are the current strategies to fight SRS; however, ... -
Detection of Antimicrobial Resistant Salmonella enterica Strains in Larval and Adult Forms of Lesser Mealworm (Alphitobius diaperinus) From Industrial Poultry Farms
(Frontiers Media, 2020)The lesser mealworms (Alphitobius diaperinus) constitute a common cosmopolitan pest in poultry flocks andmay colonize the litter in adult and larval forms. Previous studies have documented their potential as carriers of ... -
Field margin floral enhancements increase pollinator diversity at the field edge but show no consistent spillover into the crop field: a meta-analysis
(Wiley, 2020)Conventional intensification of agriculture has reduced the availability of resources for pollinators, reducing their diversity and affecting plant pollination, both in natural habitats and croplands. Field margin floral ... -

Annotated list of island lady beetles from Chile (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)
(Magnolia Press, 2020)We provide a list of coccinellids (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) species from the island territories of Chile. We report a total of 68 records, coming from ten islands, including 42 species corresponding to more than 35% of ... -
Temporal dynamics and the influence of environmental variables on the prevalence of avian influenza virus in main wetlands in central Chile
(Wiley, 2020)Although wild birds are considered the main reservoir of the influenza A virus (IAV) in nature, empirical investigations exploring the interaction between the IAV prevalence in these populations and environmental drivers ... -
Development of a SNP linkage map and genome-wide association study for resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila in pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus)
(BMC, 2020)Background: Pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) is one of the most important Neotropical aquaculture species from South America. Disease outbreaks caused by Aeromonas hydrophila infection have been considered significant contributors ... -
Effects of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acid sources on expression of lipid‑related genes in bovine milk somatic cells
(Nature, 2020)The objective of this study was to compare the effect of contrasting sources of dietary n-6 and n-3 PUFA on expression of genes related to lipid metabolism in dairy cows. During 63 days, fifteen lactating cows were assigned ... -

Acquisition of flavour preferences in pigs through interactions with conspecifics that had previously consumed flavoured protein solutions
(CAmbridge Univ Press, 2020)It is known that pigs can acquire flavour preferences by brief social interactions with conspecifics that previously consumed a flavoured solid feed. However, there is no information about whether a flavoured solution could ... -
Post-thawing sperm quality in chilean purebred stallions: effect of age and seasonality
(Elsevier, 2020)In this work, we investigated the influence of age and seasonality on sperm motility and DNA fragmentation in post-thawing semen from Chilean Purebred Stallions (CPS), a horse breed presenting the oldest genealogy record ... -
Quantifying ecological and economic value of pest control services provided by bats in a vineyard landscape of central Chile
(Elsevier, 2020)The top-down suppression of pest insects by their natural enemies, such as insectivorous bats, represents an important ecosystem service in agricultural systems. Recognizing the importance of bats to suppress pest populations ... -
