Exposure to a Low Pathogenic A/H7N2 Virus in Chickens Protects against Highly Pathogenic A/H7N1 Virus but Not against Subsequent Infection with A/H5N1
(Public Library of Science, 2013-03-04)
Recent evidences have demonstrated that the presence of low pathogenic avian influenza viruses (LPAIV) may play an important role in host ecology and transmission of avian influenza viruses (AIV). While ...
The Effects of Weaning Methods on Gut Microbiota Composition and Horse Physiology
(Frontiers Media, 2017-07-25)
Weaning has been described as one of the most stressful events in the life of horses. Given the importance of the interaction between the gut-brain axis and gut microbiota under stress, we evaluated (i) ...
Efficacy of a live attenuated vaccine in classical swine fever virus postnatally persistently infected pigs
(BMC, 2015-07-09)
Classical swine fever (CSF) causes major losses in pig farming, with various degrees of disease severity. Efficient live attenuated vaccines against classical swine fever virus (CSFV) are used routinely ...
Macronutrient Requirements of Silvery-Black Porgy (Sparidentex hasta): A Comparison with Other Farmed Sparid Species
(MDPI, 2017-05-13)
Silvery-black porgy (Sparidentex hasta) is recognized as one of the most promising fish species for aquaculture diversification in the Persian Gulf and the Oman Sea regions. In this regard, S. hasta has ...
Discovery of a kleptoplastic 'dinotom' dinoflagellate and the unique nuclear dynamics of converting kleptoplastids to permanent plastids
(Nature Research, 2019-07-19)
A monophyletic group of dinoflagellates, called ‘dinotoms’, are known to possess evolutionarily intermediate plastids derived from diatoms. The diatoms maintain their nuclei, mitochondria, and the ...
Reproductive ethogram and mate selection in captive wild Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis)
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA), 2017-01-20)
Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) have a high potential for aquaculture that is hampered by reproductive behavioural problems. These problems result in limited breeder participation in spawning. The ...
Postnatal Persistent Infection with Classical Swine Fever Virus and Its Immunological Implications
(Public Library of Science, 2015-05-04)
It is well established that trans-placental transmission of classical swine fever virus (CSFV) during mid-gestation can lead to persistently infected offspring. The aim of the present study was to ...
Clinical response to pandemic h1n1 influenza virus from a fatal and mild case in ferrets
(BMC, 2015-03-26)
Background: The majority of pandemic 2009 H1N1 (A(H1N1)pdm09) influenza virus (IV) caused mild symptoms in most infected patients, however, a greater rate of severe disease was observed in healthy young ...
A novel glucuronoxylan hydrolase produced by fermentation is safe as feed additive: toxicology and tolerance in broiler chickens
(Elsevier, 2018-09-25)
The current study presents a safety evaluation of a novel glucuronoxylan hydrolase (EC 3.2.1.136) from Bacillus subtilis produced in Bacillus licheniformis. The glucuronoxylan hydrolase preparation did ...
Understanding the legal trade of cattle and camels and the derived risk of Rift Valley Fever introduction into and transmission within Egypt
(Public Library of Science, 2018-01-19)
Rift Valley Fever (RVF) is a mosquito-borne zoonosis, which may cause significant losses for the livestock sector and have serious public health implications. Egypt has been repeatedly affected by RVF ...
