Microplastic (MP) pollution has garnered significant attention due to its detrimental effects on ecosystems and human health. If MPs contaminate farmed animals, they are more likely to enter the human body through the food chain, thereby impacting human health. Exploring MPs in breeding industry can provide a theoretical basis for breeding industry to prevent MP pollution. However, there is currently a lack of comprehensive summaries and overviews of MPs research in the industry as a whole. The core focus of the review is to improve our understanding of MPs in the breeding industry and provide valuable references and support for the development of mitigation strategies and policies. The review found that there are more studies related to MP pollution in the breeding industry, but there is inadequate information on the prevention and control technology. This review proposes strategies for prevention and control and discusses future research directions.

The study analyzed the spatial distribution characteristics, evolution rules, and driving factors of 138 China's national agricultural cultural heritage sites from 2013 to 2021 at the overall and regional levels, using kernel density analysis, Centres for standard deviation ellipse analyses, spatial autocorrelation analysis, and geographical detector analysis.The results showed that: ①From an overall perspective, the spatial pattern of China's national agricultural cultural heritage changed greatly from 2013 to 2021, with a highly uneven spatial distribution, gradually showing a distribution pattern of "widely distributed, locally concentrated". The spatial distribution of China's national agricultural cultural heritage is increasingly evident, and the spatial distribution type has evolved from discrete to clustered.

Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe oryzae, is one of the most destructive fungal diseases in rice, resulting in major economic losses worldwide. Genetic and genomic studies have identified key genes and proteins, such as AvrPik variants and MAX proteins, that are crucial for the pathogen's virulence. These effector proteins interact with specific alleles of the Pik gene family on rice chromosome 11, modulating the host's immune response.

Dietary contamination with aflatoxin B (AFB), which can lead to severe liver damage, poses a great threat to livestock and poultry breeding and has detrimental impacts on food safety. Selenomethionine (SeMet), with anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, and detoxifying effects, is regarded as a beneficial food additive. However, whether SeMet can reduce AFB-induced liver injury and intestinal microbial disorders in rabbits remains to be revealed.

Population-based sampling has improved pathogen monitoring in the US swine industry by increasing sensitivity while reducing costs. Postmortem tongue fluids (TF) have emerged as a practical option for monitoring porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in breeding herds, but limited data exist on optimal storage conditions. This study evaluated PRRSV RNA detection via RT-qPCR in TF samples under various storage times, temperatures, and viral loads.
