Journal Article
Bailey, R. A., Kranis, A., Psifidi, A., Watson, K. A., Rothwell, L., Hocking, P. M., …Avendano, S. (2018). Colonization of a commercial broiler line by Campylobacter is under limited genetic control and does not significantly impair performance or intestinal health. Poultry Science, 97(12), 4167-4176. https://doi.org/10.3382/ps/pey295

Campylobacter is the leading bacterial cause of foodborne diarrheal illness in humans and source attribution studies unequivocally identify handling or consumption of poultry meat as a key risk factor. Campylobacter colonizes the avian intestines in...

Dissecting the Genomic Architecture of Resistance to Eimeria maxima Parasitism in the Chicken (2018)
Journal Article
Boulton, K., Nolan, M. J., Wu, Z., Riggio, V., Matika, O., Harman, K., …Psifidi, A. (2018). Dissecting the Genomic Architecture of Resistance to Eimeria maxima Parasitism in the Chicken. Frontiers in Genetics, 9, https://doi.org/10.3389/fgene.2018.00528

Coccidiosis in poultry, caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Eimeria, is an intestinal disease with substantial economic impact. With the use of anticoccidial drugs under public and political pressure, and the comparatively higher cost of live-...

A second KRT71 allele in curly coated dogs (2018)
Journal Article
Bauer, A., Hadji Rasouliha, S., Brunner, M. T., Jagannathan, V., Bucher, I., Bannoehr, J., …Leeb, T. (2018). A second KRT71 allele in curly coated dogs. Animal Genetics, 50(1), 97-100. https://doi.org/10.1111/age.12743

Major characteristics of coat variation in dogs can be explained by variants in only a few genes. Until now, only one missense variant in the KRT71 gene, p.Arg151Trp, has been reported to cause curly hair in dogs. However, this variant does not expla...
