The objective of this work was to estimate the genetic variability level and distribution in Brazilian broodstocks of marine shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). Nine of the country's largest hatcheries were evaluated using codominant and highly polymorphic microsatellite markers. The results obtained from genotyping of ten microsatellite loci are indicative of genetic variability that is compatible with that found i...
Viruses are the pathologies that cause greater impact in the shrimp farming and consequential biggest economic damages registered in the sector. Despite Infectious hypodermal and hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHHNV) is considered a pathogen of low impact in Litopenaeus vannamei species, it can bring some negative economic implications for the shrimp industry, as reduction of growth rates and low productivity. A...
Neoplastic disease has become an important disease in domestic dogs over the years even thoughin veterinary medicine there is a lack of census of neoplasms. This report describes the tumor distribution between2003-2011 in Fortaleza (northeastern region of Brazil). A total of 1,008 samples of spontaneous tumour growths indogs from various tumor sites were obtained. The most affected sites were skin (52.98%; n=53...

Anopheles darlingi is the principal neotropical malaria vector, responsible for more than a million cases of malaria per year on the American continent. Anopheles darlingi diverged from the African and Asian malaria vectors ∼100 million years ago (mya) and successfully adapted to the New World environment. Here we present an annotated reference A. darlingi genome, sequenced from a wild population of males and f...

Accuracy in the diagnosis of infectious diseases in animals might be difficult to achieve when the clinical and pathological outlines are confusing, as it happens with Classical Swine Fever (CSF) and Salmonelosis. CSF is one of the most important viral diseases with an enzootic occurrence in Brazil, while Salmonelosis is a bacterial disease that causes acute or chronic diarrhea and leads to death in several spe...
