MORN1 has a conserved role in asexual and sexual development across the apicomplexa. Eukaryot Cell
Journal Article
Ferguson, D. J. P., Sahoo, N., Pinches, R. A., Bumstead, J. M., Tomley, F. M., & Gubbels, M. J. (in press). MORN1 has a conserved role in asexual and sexual development across the apicomplexa. Eukaryot Cell. https://doi.org/10.1128/EC.00021-08

The gene encoding the membrane occupation and recognition nexus protein MORN1 is conserved across the Apicomplexa. In Toxoplasma gondii, MORN1 is associated with the spindle poles, the anterior and posterior rings of the inner membrane complex (IMC)....

Sequencing and analysis of chromosome 1 of Eimeria tenella reveals a unique segmental organisation. Genome Research, 17(3), 311-319. https://doi.org/10.1101/gr.5823007

Eimeria tenella is an intracellular protozoan parasite that infects the intestinal tracts of domestic fowl and causes coccidiosis, a serious and sometimes lethal enteritis. Eimeria falls in the same phylum (Apicomplexa) as several human and animal pa... Read More about Sequencing and analysis of chromosome 1 of Eimeria tenella reveals a unique segmental organisation.

Genomic analysis of the causative agents of coccidiosis in domestic chickens

Reid, A. J., Blake, D. P., Ansari, H. R., Billington, K., Browne, H. P., Bryant, J., Dunn, M., Hung, S. S., Kawahara, F., Miranda-Saavedra, D., Malas, T. B., Mourier, T., Naghra, H., Nair, M., Otto, T. D., Rawlings, N. D., Rivailler, P., Sanchez-Flores, A., Sanders, M., Subramaniam, C., …Pain, A. (in press). Genomic analysis of the causative agents of coccidiosis in domestic chickens. Genome Research, 24(10), 1676-1685. https://doi.org/10.1101/gr.168955.113

Global production of chickens has trebled in the past two decades and they are now the most important source of dietary animal protein worldwide. Chickens are subject to many infectious diseases that reduce their performance and productivity. Coccidi...

Journal Article
Hinsu, A. T., Thakkar, J. R., Koringa, P. G., Vrba, V., Jakhesara, S. J., Psifidi, A., Guitian, J., Tomley, F. M., Rank, D. N., Raman, M., Joshi, C. G., & Blake, D. P. (in press). Illumina next generation sequencing for the analysis of Eimeria populations in commercial broilers and indigenous chickens. Frontiers in Veterinary Science, https://doi.org/10.3389/fvets.2018.00176

Eimeria species parasites can cause the enteric disease coccidiosis, most notably in chickens where the economic and welfare implications are significant. Seven Eimeria species are recognized to infect chickens, although understanding of their region...
