Pathogen group-specific risk factors for intra-mammary infection in water buffalo
<p>A cross-sectional study was conducted to estimate the prevalence of intra-mammary infection (IMI) associated bacteria and to identify risk factors for pathogen group-specific IMI in water buffalo in Bangladesh. A California Mastitis Test (CMT) and bacteriological cultures were performed on 1,374 quarter milk samples collected from 763 water buffalo from 244 buffalo farms in nine districts in Bangladesh. Quarter, buffalo, and farm-related data were obtained through questionnaires and visual observations. A total of 618 quarter samples were found to be culture-positive. Non-<em>aureus</em> staphylococci were the predominant IMI-associated bacterial species, and <em>Staphylococcus </em>(<em>S.</em>)<em> chromogenes</em>, <em>S. hyicus</em>, and <em>S. epidermidis </em>were the most common bacteria found. The proportion of non-aureus staphylococci or <em>Mammaliicoccus sciuri</em> (NASM), <em>S. aureus</em>, and other bacterial species identified in the buffalo quarter samples varied between buffalo farms. Therefore, different management practices, buffalo breeding factors, and nutrition were considered and further analyzed when estimating the IMI odds ratio (OR). The odds of IMI by any pathogen (OR: 1.8) or by NASM (OR: 2.2) were high in buffalo herds with poor milking hygiene. Poor cleanliness of the hind quarters had a high odds of IMI caused by any pathogen (OR: 2.0) or NASM (OR: 1.9). Twice daily milking (OR: 3.1) and farms with buffalo purchased from another herd (OR: 2.0) were associated with IMI by any pathogen. Asymmetrical udders were associated with IMI-caused by any bacteria (OR: 1.7). A poor body condition score showed higher odds of IMI by any pathogen (OR: 1.4) or by NASM (OR: 1.7). This study shows that the prevalence of IMI in water buffalo was high and varied between farms. In accordance with the literature, our data highlight that IMI can be partly controlled through better farm management, primarily by improving hygiene, milking management, breeding, and nutrition.</p>
Sex-specific transgenerational effects of diet on offspring life history and physiology
<p>Dietary variation in males and females can shape the expression of offspring life histories and physiology. However, the relative contributions of maternal and paternal dietary variation to phenotypic expression of latter generations are currently unknown. We provided male and female <em>Drosophila melanogaster</em> grandparents with<em> </em>diets differing in sucrose concentration prior to reproduction, and similarly subjected their grandoffspring to the same treatments. We then investigated the phenotypic consequences of this dietary variation among the grandsons and granddaughters. We observed transgenerational effects of dietary sucrose, mediated through the grandmaternal lineage, which mimic the direct effects of sucrose on lifespan, with opposing patterns across sexes; low sucrose increased female, but decreased male, lifespan. Dietary mismatching of grandoffspring-grandparent diets increased lifespan and reproductive success, and moderated triglyceride levels of grandoffspring, providing insights into the physiological underpinnings of the complex transgenerational effects on life histories.</p>

Small skeletons show size-specific scaling: an exploration of allometry in the mammalian lumbar spine
<p>Studies of vertebrate bone biomechanics often focus on skeletal adaptations at upper extremes of body mass, ignoring the importance of skeletal adaptations at lower extremes. Yet mammals are ancestrally small and most modern species have masses under 5 kg, so the evolution of morphology and function at small size should be prioritized for understanding how mammals make a living. We examined allometric scaling of lumbar vertebrae in the small-bodied Philippine endemic rodents known as cloud rats, which vary in mass across two orders of magnitude (15.5g-2700g). External vertebral dimensions scale with isometry or positive allometry, likely relating to body size and nuances in quadrupedal posture. In contrast to most mammalian trabecular bone studies, bone volume fraction and trabecular thickness scale with positive allometry and isometry, respectively. It is physiologically impossible for these trends to continue to the upper extremes of mammalian body size, and we demonstrate a fundamental difference in trabecular bone allometry between large- and small-bodied mammals. These findings have important implications for the biomechanical capabilities of mammalian bone at small body size, for the selective pressures that govern skeletal evolution in small mammals, and for the way we define "small" and "large" in the context of vertebrate skeletons.</p>

Transcriptomic atlas reveals organ-specific disease tolerance in sickle cell mice. Dataset for HbSS livers injected or not with heme
<p>The objective of this experiment was to explore the transcriptome of the HbSS Townes mouse model of sickle cell disease. Townes model mice carry several human hemoglobin knock-in genes replacing the endogenous mouse genes and may be useful in studying sickle cell disease. All mice were genotyped, age- and sex-matched littermates. All HbAA (control, normal human hemoglobin) vs HbSS (sickle cell disease, mutated human hemoglobin) mice were used for experimentations at 6-8 weeks of age, to limit intra-group heterogeneity. Hemin (Ferriprotoporphyrin IX) was purchased from Frontiers Scientific and injected intravenously (iv.) in a retroorbital sinus at a concentration of 24 µmol/kg. Control mice received PBS instead. Mice were anesthetized with isoflurane 2-3% for injections, blood collection and sacrifice. All mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation, 4 hours after injection.</p> <p>The results of livers <span>(indicated foie)</span> from HbSS mice injected or not with heme are presented here. </p> <p>The results of livers <span>(indicated foie)</span> from HbAA mice injected or not with heme can be found at number 10.5281/zenodo.10963640. </p> <p>Thirty μm-thick frozen tissue sections of livers were cut as above and homogenized in 200μL of 1-Thioglycerol/Homogenization Solution (Maxwell® 16 LEV simplyRNA Tissue Kit Promega AS1280). The quality and quantity of mRNA were evaluated using a 2100 bioanalyzer with TNA 6000 NanoKits (all Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA, USA). RNA Integrity Numbers superior to 7 were eligible for subsequent reverse transcription into cDNA. RNAseq was performed at the GenomIC plateform Cochin Institute INSERM U1016. After RNA extraction, RNA quality (RNA integrity number) was estimated. 1μg of high-quality total RNA sample (RIN &gt;7) was processed to build up the libraries, using TruSeq Stranded mRNA kit (Illumina) according to manufacturer instructions. Briefly, purified poly-A containing mRNA molecules were fragmented and reverse-transcribed using random primers. Replacement of dTTP by dUTP during second strand synthesis allowed us to achieve strand specificity.

All <span>HbAA</span> (control, normal human hemoglobin) vs HbSS (<span>sickle cell disease</span>, mutated human hemoglobin) mice were used for experimentations at 6-8 weeks of age, to limit intra-group <span>heterogeneity</span>. <span>Hemin</span> (<span>Ferriprotoporphyrin IX</span>) was purchased from <span>Frontiers Scientific</span> and injected <span>intravenously</span> (iv.) in a retroorbital sinus at a concentration of 24 µmol/kg. Control mice received <span>PBS</span> instead. Mice were anesthetized with <span>isoflurane</span> 2-3% for injections, blood collection and sacrifice. All mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation, 4 hours after injection.</p> <p>The results of heart (indicated coeur) from HbSS mice injected or not with <span>heme</span> are presented here . </p> <p>The results of heart (indicated coeur) from <span>HbAA</span> mice injected or not with <span>heme</span> can be found at number 10.5281/zenodo.10964042</p> <p>Thirty μm-thick frozen tissue sections of kidneys were cut as above and homogenized in 200μL of 1-Thioglycerol/Homogenization Solution (Maxwell® 16 LEV simplyRNA Tissue Kit <span>Promega</span> AS1280). The quality and quantity of mRNA were evaluated using a 2100 bioanalyzer with TNA 6000 NanoKits (all <span>Agilent Technologies</span>, <span>Palo Alto, CA</span>, <span>USA</span>). RNA Integrity Numbers superior to 7 were eligible for subsequent <span>reverse transcription</span> into <span>cDNA</span>. <span>RNAseq</span> was performed at the GenomIC plateform <span>Cochin</span> Institute INSERM U1016. After <span>RNA extraction</span>, RNA quality (<span>RNA integrity number</span>) was estimated. 1μg of high-quality total RNA sample (RIN &gt;7) was processed to build up the libraries, using TruSeq Stranded mRNA kit (<span>Illumina</span>) according to manufacturer instructions. Briefly, purified <span>poly-A</span> containing mRNA molecules were fragmented and <span>reverse-transcribed</span> using random <span>primers</span>. Replacement of dTTP by dUTP during second strand synthesis allowed us to achieve strand specificity. Addition of a single A base to the <span>cDNA</span> was followed by <span>ligation</span> of <span>Illumina</span> adapters.<br>Libraries were quantified by <span>qPCR</span> using <span>KAPA Library Quantification</span> Kits for <span>Illumina</span> Libraries (KapaBiosystems, <span>Wilmington</span>, MA). Library profiles were assessed using DNA High Sensitivity LabChip kits on an <span>Agilent</span> Bioanalyzer. Libraries were sequenced on an <span>Illumina</span> Nextseq 500 instrument using 75 base-lengths read V2 chemistry in a <span>paired-end</span> mode. After sequencing, primary analysis based on AOZAN software (ENS, <span>Paris</span>), was applied to <span>demultiplex</span> and control the quality of the <span>raw data</span> (based of FastQC modules / version 0.11.5).</p> <p>The dataset here represents 4 groups of mice, 4 mice per group as follows: HbAA <span>PBS</span>, HbAA <span>heme</span>, HbSS <span>PBS</span>, <span>HbSS</span> <span>heme</span>. </p> </div>
Utilization of outdoor spaces for specific activities (Barcelona, Rotterdam, Gothenburg): ratings and reasoning
<p>What outdoor spaces are more likely to be used for different activities?</p> <p>In this repository, we share the data we collected and analysed to explore the impact of physical characteristics of outdoor spaces on<br>the probability of utilization across diverse individuals, considering various age and gender groups.</p> <p>To collect this data we performed a crowdsourcing campaign. We recruited 409 participants from 21 European countries. To ensure a diverse range of outdoor spaces’ physical characteristics, our selection includes a range of spaces such as public squares, open marketplaces, greenspaces, pocket parks, play spaces, and streets, sourced from three European cities: Rotterdam, Barcelona, and Gothenburg. In our experiments, we presented to participants five different outdoor spaces and asked them to indicate to what degree, and why, they consider them suitable for any of the aforementioned activities.</p> <p>In total we collected data for 413 spaces representing 102 public open spaces, 107 streets, 114 greenspaces, 91 pocket parks, and 84 play spaces.</p> <p>In particular this dataset includes:</p> <ul> <li>9700 ratings of outdoor spaces likely use for different activities (Likert scale 1-5)</li> <li>6388 short explanations of these ratings</li> <li>Each space is assigned a geolocation and a gsv_id which links this location to its corresponding google street view image</li> </ul>

First insights into population structure and genetic diversity versus host specificity in trypanorhynch tapeworms using multiplexed shotgun genotyping
<p>Theory predicts relaxed host specificity and high host vagility should contribute to reduced genetic structure in parasites while strict host specificity and low host vagility should increase genetic structure. Though these predictions are intuitive, they have never been explicitly tested in a population genomic framework. Trypanorhynch tapeworms, which parasitize sharks and rays (elasmobranchs) as definitive hosts, are the only order of elasmobranch tapeworms that exhibit considerable variability in their definitive host specificity. This allows for unique combinations of host use and geographic range, making trypanorhynchs ideal candidates for studying how these traits influence population-level structure and genetic diversity. Multiplexed shotgun genotyping (MSG) datasets were generated to characterize component population structure and infrapopulation diversity for a representative of each trypanorhynch suborder: the ray-hosted <em>Rhinoptericola megacantha</em> (Trypanobatoida) and the shark-hosted Callitetrarhynchus gracilis (Trypanoselachoida). Adults of <em>R. megacantha</em> are more host-specific and less broadly distributed than adults of <em>C. gracilis</em>, allowing correlation between these factors and genetic structure. Replicate tapeworm specimens were sequenced from the same host individual, from multiple conspecific hosts within and across geographic regions, and from multiple definitive host species. For <em>R. megacantha</em>, population structure coincided with geography rather than host species. For <em>C. gracilis</em>, limited population structure was found, suggesting a potential link between degree of host specificity and structure. Conspecific trypanorhynchs from the same host individual were found to be as, or more, genetically divergent from one another as from conspecifics from different host individuals. For both species, high levels of homozygosity and positive FIS values were documented.</p>
