The effect of experience of ramps at rear on the subsequent ability of layer pullets to negotiate a ramp transition (2018)
Journal Article
Norman, K. I., Weeks, C. A., Pettersson, I. C., & Nicol, C. J. (2018). The effect of experience of ramps at rear on the subsequent ability of layer pullets to negotiate a ramp transition. Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 208, 92-99. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.applanim.2018.08.007

In commercial situations, laying hens must negotiate levels to reach resources such as food, water and litter. Providing ramps in aviary systems reduces collisions and resultant keel bone fractures in adults. We investigated whether providing ramps d...

Spatio-temporal and risk factor analysis of alleles related to Scrapie resistance in sheep in Great Britain before, during and after a national breeding program (2018)
Journal Article
Alarcon, P., Marco-Jimenez, F., Arnold, M., Wolf, A., Rajanayagam, B., Stevens, K., & Adkin, A. (2018). Spatio-temporal and risk factor analysis of alleles related to Scrapie resistance in sheep in Great Britain before, during and after a national breeding program. Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 159, 12-21. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.prevetmed.2018.08.008

Certain genotypes of sheep have been identified to increase their susceptibility (the VRQ allele) or resistance (the ARR allele) to classical scrapie. This study’s aim was to assess the spatio-temporal pattern of the ARR and VRQ alleles in GB and to...

Anthropogenic environmental drivers of antimicrobial resistance in wildlife (2018)
Journal Article

The isolation of antimicrobial resistant bacteria (ARB) from wildlife living adjacent to humans has led to the suggestion that such antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is anthropogenically driven by exposure to antimicrobials and ARB. However, ARB have al... Read More about Anthropogenic environmental drivers of antimicrobial resistance in wildlife.
