Longitudinal changes in telomere length and associated genetic parameters in dairy cattle analysed using random regression models (2018)
Journal Article
Seeker, L. A., Ilska, J. J., Psifidi, A., Wilbourn, R. V., Underwood, S. L., Fairlie, J., …Banos, G. (2018). Longitudinal changes in telomere length and associated genetic parameters in dairy cattle analysed using random regression models. PLoS ONE, 13(2), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0192864

Telomeres cap the ends of linear chromosomes and shorten with age in many organisms. In humans short telomeres have been linked to morbidity and mortality. With the accumulation of longitudinal datasets the focus shifts from investigating telomere le...

Journal Article
Kondori, N. R., Paul, P., Robbins, J. P., Liu, K., Hildyard, J. C. W., Wells, D. J., & De Belleroche, J. S. (2018). Focus on the Role of D-serine and D-amino Acid Oxidase in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis/Motor Neuron Disease (ALS). Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 5(8), https://doi.org/10.3389/fmolb.2018.00008

Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 virus has been circulating in Vietnam since 2003, while outbreaks of HPAI H5N6 virus are more recent, having only been reported since 2014. Although the spatial distribution of H5N1 outbreaks and risk fac...

Isolation and identification of Acinetobacter spp. from healthy canine skin (2018)
Journal Article
Mitchell, K. E., Turton, J. F., & Lloyd, D. H. (2018). Isolation and identification of Acinetobacter spp. from healthy canine skin. Veterinary Dermatology, 29(3), 240+. https://doi.org/10.1111/vde.12528

Acinetobacter species can exhibit widespread resistance to antimicrobial agents. They are already recognized as important nosocomial pathogens of humans, but are becoming increasingly recognized in opportunistic infections of animals. This study aime...
