Are Eimeria Genetically Diverse, and Does It Matter? (2017)
Journal Article
Clark, E. L., Tomley, F. M., & Blake, D. P. (2017). Are Eimeria Genetically Diverse, and Does It Matter?. Trends in Parasitology, 33(3), 231-241. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pt.2016.08.007

Eimeria pose a risk to all livestock species as a cause of coccidiosis, reducing productivity and compromising animal welfare. Pressure to reduce drug use in the food chain makes the development of cost-effective vaccines against Eimeria essential. F... Read More about Are Eimeria Genetically Diverse, and Does It Matter?.

S., Thangaraj, K., Banerjee, P. S., Dhinakar-Raj, G., Raman, M., & Tomley, F. M. (2015). Population, genetic, and antigenic diversity of the apicomplexan Eimeria tenella and their relevance to vaccine development. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1506468112

The phylum Apicomplexa includes serious pathogens of humans and animals. Understanding the distribution and population structure of these protozoan parasites is of fundamental importance to explain disease epidemiology and develop sustainable control...

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)....
