Cryptic Eimeria genotypes are common across the southern but not northern hemisphere (2016)
Journal Article
Clark, E. L., Macdonald, S. E., Thenmozhi, V., Kundu, K., Garg, R., Kumar, S., …Suo, X. (2016). Cryptic Eimeria genotypes are common across the southern but not northern hemisphere. International Journal for Parasitology, 46(9), 537-544. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpara.2016.05.006

The phylum Apicomplexa includes parasites of medical, zoonotic and veterinary significance. Understanding the global distribution and genetic diversity of these protozoa is of fundamental importance for efficient, robust and long-lasting methods of c...

Investigating poultry trade patterns to guide avian influenza surveillance and control: a case study in Vietnam (2016)
Journal Article
Fournié, G., Tripodi, A., Nguyen, T. T. T., Nguyen, V. T., Tran, T. T., Bisson, A., …Newman, S. H. (2016). Investigating poultry trade patterns to guide avian influenza surveillance and control: a case study in Vietnam. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep29463

Live bird markets are often the focus of surveillance activities monitoring avian influenza viruses (AIV) circulating in poultry. However, in order to ensure a high sensitivity of virus detection and effectiveness of management actions, poultry manag...

Detection of Rare Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles by Active and Passive Surveillance Approaches (2016)
Journal Article
Mather, A., Reeve, R., Mellor, D. J., Matthews, L., Reid-Smith, R. J., Dutil, L., …Reid, S. W. J. (2016). Detection of Rare Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles by Active and Passive Surveillance Approaches. PLoS ONE, 11(7), e0158515. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0158515

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance systems are generally not specifically designed to detect emerging resistances and usually focus primarily on resistance to individual drugs. Evaluating the diversity of resistance, using ecological metrics... Read More about Detection of Rare Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles by Active and Passive Surveillance Approaches.

Exploring pig trade patterns to inform the design of risk-based disease surveillance and control strategies (2016)
Journal Article
Guinat, C., Relun, A., Wall, B. A., Morris, A., Dixon, L., & Pfeiffer, D. U. (2016). Exploring pig trade patterns to inform the design of risk-based disease surveillance and control strategies. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep28429

An understanding of the patterns of animal contact networks provides essential information for the design of risk-based animal disease surveillance and control strategies. This study characterises pig movements throughout England and Wales between 20...

Pastor-Fernandez, I., Regidor-Cerrillo, J., Alvarez-Garcia, G., Marugan-Hernandez, V., Garcia-Lunar, P., Hemphill, A., & Ortega-Mora, L. M. (2016). The tandemly repeated NTPase (NTPDase) from Neospora caninum is a canonical dense granule protein whose RNA expression, protein secretion and phosphorylation coincides with the tachyzoite egress. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-016-1620-4

Sialic Acid within the Glycosylphosphatidylinositol Anchor Targets the Cellular Prion Protein to Synapses (2016)
Journal Article
Bate, C., Nolan, W., McHale-Owen, H., & Williams, A. (2016). Sialic Acid within the Glycosylphosphatidylinositol Anchor Targets the Cellular Prion Protein to Synapses. Journal of Biological Chemistry, 291(33), 17093-101. https://doi.org/10.1074/jbc.M116.731117

Although the cellular prion protein (PrPC) is concentrated at synapses, the factors that target PrPC to synapses are not understood. Here we demonstrate that exogenous PrPC was rapidly targeted to synapses in recipient neurons derived from Prnp knock...

Evaluation of the limitations and methods to improve rapid phage-based detection of viable Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in the blood of experimentally infected cattle (2016)
Journal Article
Swift, B. M. C., Huxley, J. N., Plain, K. M., Begg, D. J., De Silva, K., Purdie, A. C., …Rees, C. E. (2016). Evaluation of the limitations and methods to improve rapid phage-based detection of viable Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in the blood of experimentally infected cattle. BMC Veterinary Research, 12(1), 115. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12917-016-0728-2

Disseminated infection and bacteraemia is an underreported and under-researched aspect of Johne’s disease. This is mainly due to the time it takes for Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) to grow and lack of sensitivity of culture. Viabl...
