Genome-Wide Analysis Reveals Selection for Important Traits in Domestic Horse Breeds. PLoS Genetics, 9(1), e1003211. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pgen.1003211

Intense selective pressures applied over short evolutionary time have resulted in homogeneity within, but substantial variation among, horse breeds. Utilizing this population structure, 744 individuals from 33 breeds, and a 54,000 SNP genotyping arra...

Veterinary Medicine International, https://doi.org/10.4061/2011/263768

Urinary tract disease is a common reason for use (and likely misuse, improper use, and overuse) of antimicrobials in dogs and cats. There is a lack of comprehensive treatment guidelines such as those that are available for human medicine. Accordingly...

Assessment of lameness prevalence and associated risk factors in dairy herds in England and Wales (2010)
Journal Article
Barker, Z. E., Leach, K. A., Whay, H. R., Bell, N. J., & Main, D. C. J. (2010). Assessment of lameness prevalence and associated risk factors in dairy herds in England and Wales. Journal of Dairy Science, 93(3), 932-941. https://doi.org/10.3168/jds.2009-2309

Visits were made to 205 dairy farms in England and Wales between October 2006 and May 2007 by 1 or more of 4 researchers. At each visit, all milking cows were locomotion scored (lameness scored) using a 4-point scale (0 = sound locomotion, 1 = imperf...
