Studies on the response of ewes to live chlamydiae adapted to chicken embryos or tissue culture. (1/1489)

Ewes infected before gestation with chicken embryo or tissue culture adapted chlamydial strain B-577 were challenge inoculated with the homologous strain at four to 18 weeks of gestation. The ewes responsed with group specific complement fixing antibody titers of 1:8 to 1:256 by the second week after initial infection. A secondary antibody response in the surviving challenge inoculated ewes occurred at the time of lambing and reached titers of 1:32 to 1:256 by the second week after parturition. Group specific complement fixing antibodies did not appear to play a significant role in resistance to chlamydial infection. Ewes infected with the chicken embryo adapted strain B-577 excreted chlamydiae in their feces 60 days after inoculation. However, chlamydiae were not recovered from feces of ewes infected with the tissue culture adapted strain B-577. Placentas of ewes challenge inoculated by the intravenous route were consistently infected. Chlamydiae were recovered from placentas, some fetuses and lambs. In two instances when challenge inoculation was given by the intramuscular route, infection was detected only by the direct fluorescent antibody method.  (+info)

Predicting insecticide resistance: mutagenesis, selection and response. (2/1489)

Strategies to manage resistance to a particular insecticide have usually been devised after resistance has evolved. If it were possible to predict likely resistance mechanisms to novel insecticides before they evolved in the field, it might be feasible to have programmes that manage susceptibility. With this approach in mind, single-gene variants of the Australian sheep blowfly, Lucilia cuprina, resistant to dieldrin, diazinon and malathion, were selected in the laboratory after mutagenesis of susceptible strains. The genetic and molecular bases of resistance in these variants were identical to those that had previously evolved in natural populations. Given this predictive capacity for known resistances, the approach was extended to anticipate possible mechanisms of resistance to cyromazine, an insecticide to which L. cuprina populations remain susceptible after almost 20 years of exposure. Analysis of the laboratory-generated resistant variants provides an explanation for this observation. The variants show low levels of resistance and a selective advantage over susceptibles for only a limited concentration range. These results are discussed in the context of the choice of insecticides for control purposes and of delivery strategies to minimize the evolution of resistance.  (+info)

Potential value of major antigenic protein 2 for serological diagnosis of heartwater and related ehrlichial infections. (3/1489)

Cowdria ruminantium is the etiologic agent of heartwater, a disease causing major economic loss in ruminants in sub-Saharan Africa and the Caribbean. Development of a serodiagnostic test is essential for determining the carrier status of animals from regions where heartwater is endemic, but most available tests give false-positive reactions with sera against related Erhlichia species. Current approaches rely on molecular methods to define proteins and epitopes that may allow specific diagnosis. Two major antigenic proteins (MAPs), MAP1 and MAP2, have been examined for their use as antigens in the serodiagnosis of heartwater. The objectives of this study were (i) to determine if MAP2 is conserved among five geographically divergent strains of C. ruminantium and (ii) to determine if MAP2 homologs are present in Ehrlichia canis, the causative agent of canine ehrlichiosis, and Ehrlichia chaffeensis, the organism responsible for human monocytic ehrlichiosis. These two agents are closely related to C. ruminantium. The map2 gene from four strains of C. ruminantium was cloned, sequenced, and compared with the previously reported map2 gene from the Crystal Springs strain. Only 10 nucleic acid differences between the strains were identified, and they translate to only 3 amino acid changes, indicating that MAP2 is highly conserved. Genes encoding MAP2 homologs from E. canis and E. chaffeensis also were cloned and sequenced. Amino acid analysis of MAP2 homologs of E. chaffeensis and E. canis with MAP2 of C. ruminantium revealed 83.4 and 84.4% identities, respectively. Further analysis of MAP2 and its homologs revealed that the whole protein lacks specificity for heartwater diagnosis. The development of epitope-specific assays using this sequence information may produce diagnostic tests suitable for C. ruminantium and also other related rickettsiae.  (+info)

Performance of competitive and indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, gel immunoprecipitation with native hapten polysaccharide, and standard serological tests in diagnosis of sheep brucellosis. (4/1489)

Competitive and standard enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), rose bengal (RB), complement fixation, and agar gel immunoprecipitation with native hapten (AGID-NH) were compared by using sera from Brucella-free, Brucella melitensis-infected, and B. melitensis Rev1-vaccinated sheep. The most sensitive tests were indirect ELISA and RB, and the most specific tests were AGID-NH and competitive ELISA. We show that RB followed by AGID-NH is a simple and effective system for diagnosing sheep brucellosis.  (+info)

Evaluation of modified BACTEC 12B radiometric medium and solid media for culture of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis from sheep. (5/1489)

Definitive diagnosis of Johne's disease in ruminants depends on confirming the presence of the causative bacterium, Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis, in tissues of the host. This is readily achieved in most ruminant species by culture. However, culture of clinical specimens from sheep in many countries has been unrewarding. Such a culture from sheep was achieved recently in Australia by using a radiometric culture medium. The aims of the present study were to evaluate the culture of M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis from sheep by using modified BACTEC 12B radiometric medium, to determine the sensitivity of culture in relation to histopathology, and to evaluate a range of solid media. Culture of M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis from sheep with Johne's disease is a sensitive method of diagnosis: intestinal tissues from all 43 animals with multibacillary disease and all 22 animals with paucibacillary disease were culture positive, while 98% of feces from 53 animals with multibacillary disease and 48% of feces from 31 animals with paucibacillary disease were culture positive. Of sheep without histological evidence of Johne's disease from infected flocks, intestinal tissue from 32% of 41 were culture positive, while feces from 17% of 41 were culture positive. Consequently, culture is recommended as the "gold standard" test for detection of ovine Johne's disease. Of the wide range of solid media that were evaluated, only modified Middlebrook 7H10 and 7H11 agars, which were very similar in composition to modified BACTEC 12B medium, yielded growth of ovine strains of M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis. The sensitivity of detection of M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis on solid media was slightly lower than that in modified BACTEC 12B radiometric medium. Both egg yolk and mycobactin J were essential additives for growth of ovine strains of M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis in both liquid and solid media.  (+info)

Human echinococcosis in Bulgaria: a comparative epidemiological analysis. (6/1489)

The present article describes the importance of human echinococcosis as a public health problem in Bulgaria, outlines the control measures carried out and evaluates comparatively the situation over three periods spanning 46 years (1950-1995). During the first period (1950-62), a total of 6469 new surgically confirmed cases of hydatid disease were recorded in Bulgaria, with an annual incidence of 6.5 per 100,000 population, and the infestation rate in domestic animals and dogs was high. Echinococcosis was endemic throughout the country. The organization of a control campaign, initiated in 1960, led to a considerable improvement in the situation during the second period (1971-82). Morbidity among humans gradually decreased, with an average incidence of 2.0 per 100,000, and the proportion of infected animals also fell. The distribution of echinococcosis was characterized as sporadic or of low endemicity. During the third period (1983-95), owing to administrative irregularities and economic changes, funds for supporting the campaign were reduced and control structures were dismantled. As a result, the incidence rose to 3.3 per 100,000. Echinococcosis again became endemic, in some regions hyperendemic. The findings provide convincing evidence that cessation of control measures or reduction of campaign activity can lead to intensification in the transmission of Echinococcus granulosus and to a resurgence in echinococcosis to previous levels.  (+info)

Vaccination with cathepsin L proteinases and with leucine aminopeptidase induces high levels of protection against fascioliasis in sheep. (7/1489)

The potential of different parasite proteinases for use as vaccine candidates against fascioliasis in sheep was studied by vaccinating animals with the cathepsin L proteinases CL1 and CL2 and with leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) purified from adult flukes. In the first trial, sheep were immunized with CL1 or CL2 and the mean protection levels obtained were 33 and 34%, respectively. Furthermore, a significant reduction in egg output was observed in sheep vaccinated either with CL1 (71%) or with CL2 (81%). The second trial was performed to determine the protective potential of the two cathepsin L proteinases assayed together, as well as in combination with LAP, and of LAP alone. The combination of CL1 and CL2 induced higher levels of protection (60%) than those produced when these enzymes were administered separately. Those sheep that received the cocktail vaccine including CL1, CL2, and LAP were significantly protected (78%) against metacercarial challenge, but vaccination with LAP alone elicited the highest level of protection (89%). All vaccine preparations induced high immunoglobulin G titers which were boosted after the challenge infection, but no correlations between antibody titers and worm burdens were found. However, the sera of those animals vaccinated with LAP contained LAP-neutralizing antibodies. Reduced liver damage, as assessed by the level of the liver enzyme gamma-glutamyl transferase, was observed in the groups vaccinated with CL1, CL2, and LAP or with LAP alone.  (+info)

imary concern for farmers in the region. Cows have a high environmental foot print and urine patches are a source of high N loading to pastures which can leach into ground water. A brief evaluation of the sheep meat and wool industry has been touched on to gauge how farmers are coping in the current environment and to provide an indication of motives which have initiated a shift from sheep farming to sheep dairying. Sheep milking in New Zealand is a very small industry and literature on production is limited therefore the review touches on the potential the industry has, given changing global demographics and the demand for protein products. The method utilised to study a range of sheep milking systems is a quantitative normative approach based on the collation of research material with the aim to draw positive conclusions. Computer modelling tools have been used to simulate the set-up of a sheep milking scenarios in Canterbury and provide an insight into the expected performance. Results ...

While, 16% of participants submitted only one sample, almost 15% of farmers did not report which anthelmintic product they used and the efficacy of these treatments could not be included in the study. Approximately 2% of farmers used an inappropriate product, such as a product active only as a flukicide or a combination (BZ/LEV) anthelmintic, and were also excluded from the study. A further 39.6% of farmers either did not provide information on time of sampling or did not meet the criteria concerning timeframes pre- and post-treatment (10-14, 4-7 or 14-18 days for BZ, LEV and ML products, respectively)..

The gameplay is clever enough. In a fashion which feels inspired by the likes of Spy Mouse, Oh! Sheep has you navigate an obstacle course with the goal of getting all your sheep to the end. This is accomplished by drawing lines for each sheep to follow through and around a variety of traps - such as lasers, cannonballs, and blockades.. Along the way, your sheep will find berries to eat and obstacles associated with different colors, including their natural white. Youll need to time the movements of the sheep to get between the traps, as well as position them to activate their color-coordinated switches while the other sheep get through other portions of the stage. At the end, each must be moved to the appropriately-colored transporter so they can be picked up by a UFO and whisked away.. Generally speaking, its playable - and even fun - but there are a few issues which detract from the overall experience. One is that moving the sheep can be a bit tricky. While drawing lines works well enough, ...

Longtime reader, activist, and sheep farmer Anders Paulsson sent me this inspiring story that I just had to share:. On our farm in Sweden, we host herds of 150-300 Norwegian forest sheep. Their grazing area is about 25 hectares, split by a fenced-in grass landing strip for our farm plane and for guests flying in. The cool thing with the Norwegian forest sheep is that their fur is individually patterned. This makes it very easy to identify them.. So heres the interesting observation.. The fenced in grass gradually gets contaminated and grazed down, and thus the sheep have two options:. 1. Stay within the fenced-in area and make due of what is there, or. 2. Jump the fence, which, if motivated, they do easily as they are well insulated by their fur in regard to the electric wire… and then graze the very rich grass on the runway.. I have noticed that it is the same individuals (about 1-3%) that consistently jump the fence - and they bring their lambs with them too. I can almost hear the roar from ...

If you are intent on seeing bighorn sheep up close in their natural habitat, youre going to want to visit the Dubois area between November and March. Thats the time of year when the National Bighorn Sheep Interpretive Center gives its tours. Tours have to be booked at least a few days in advance; for best results - and flexibility - try to book even more in advance. Setting aside the time to do this is well worth it, since youre probably not going to get another great chance to see bighorn sheep like this..

Chronic non-progressive pneumonia is an important disease of three to ten month old sheep in New Zealand. The lesions invariably contain M. ovipneumoniae yet the disease, or at least its more severe manifestations, cannot be consistently produced by intranasal inoculation of isolates of this organism. This may be due to the existance of different strains of this organism. This in vitro study attempts to establish whether or not there is a large number of distinguishable strains of this organism. Comparison of M. ovipneumoniae isolates by the metabolic inhibition test showed that they differed but did not allow the recognition of well defined groups. The heterogeneity of M. ovipneumoniae was then examined using SDS-PAGE of total proteins and it was found that all isolates derived from sheep on twenty different farms differed except for three isolated from one farm. Protein bands on SDS-PAGE gels could be common to all isolates, shared by some isolates, or unique to individual isolates. ...

For nearly 17 years, plunge dipping has been the only method of scab control in the UK under a Government-controlled eradication campaign. Dipping is inconvenient and has been incriminated in the post-dipping illness of stockowners and contractors, and the disposal of large volumes of used dipwash is a potential hazard to the environment. Upon the deregulation of sheep scab in July 1992, stockowners are no longer obliged to dip and will seek alternative methods of scab control, ie, systemic injectables or synthetic pyrethroid pour-ons. Plunge dipping still offers the only fully effective method of controlling scab and it has a broad spectrum of activity against other ectoparasites of sheep. The present systemic pour-ons and oral drenches have little effect against scab, but double injections of systemic acaricides, ie, ivermectin, show great promise. The efficacy of systemic injectables is related to the initial mite burden and the second injection must not be omitted if complete control is to ...
Haemonchus contortus is the most pathogenic nematode of small ruminants. Infection in sheep and goats results in anaemia that decreases animal productivity and can ultimately cause death. The involvement of ruminant-specific galectin-11 (LGALS-11) and galectin-14 (LGALS-14) has been postulated to play important roles in protective immune responses against parasitic infection; however, their ligands are unknown. In the current study, LGALS-11 and LGALS-14 ligands in H. contortus were identified from larval (L4) and adult parasitic stages extracts using immobilised LGALS-11 and LGALS-14 affinity column chromatography and mass spectrometry. Both LGALS-11 and LGALS-14 bound more putative protein targets in the adult stage of H. contortus (43 proteins) when compared to the larval stage (two proteins). Of the 43 proteins identified in the adult stage, 34 and 35 proteins were bound by LGALS-11 and LGALS-14, respectively, with 26 proteins binding to both galectins. Interestingly, hematophagous ...
In recent months, farmers and vets have been anecdotally highlighting concerns about the increase in sheep scab in parts of Northern Ireland.

If, hypothetically speaking, I were looking for some Merino sheep, where might I find some? Perfunctory googling suggests New Zealand. Or Vermont. Not exactly practical. I dont think Ive ever seen any, even at yarn shows (I cant be sure. Ive always been far more interested in the end product)
From the rulebook: Every Sunday, you and your relatives meet at your dear Aunt Dolly’s place for tea and cupcakes. Dolly is a mad-keen knitter, whipping up a cosy garment every week. Its your job to supply her with the wool from her flock of happy sheep; the fleece of four sheep will meet her needs. However, she only wants wool of one colour- either black or white. And since her sheepdog Fang ran off with a Bichon Frise last year, those four sheep will need to be within arms reach for you to gather them in. Will you be the one who gathers the four sheep first, thereby winning Aunt Dolly’s biggest smile- and the biggest scone? Happy Sheep is a fast, fun game of strategy, memory and bluffing. It takes 15 seconds to set up, two minutes to learn, and five minutes to stop laughing when you trick someone into crying "Happy Sheep" and proving they don’t know black from white. Includes strategies for gamers and a simple variant for very young kids. How to play: Mix the 20

Bighorn sheep are a staple of desert wildlife, but their appearance in rocky hills around the Coachella Valley still surprises locals. Back in April, several neighbors near Crescent Drive spotted some Bighorn Sheep. One of those neighbors is Peter Potente, who is hoping more research is done in the are to ensure that this species is safe especially when there is construction. If you wanted to see a sheep, youd go over to the living desert and see them there, but all of a sudden we start seeing this, he said. I never saw that many so it leads me to think maybe this is going to be a migration pattern here.

A large flock of sheep are crossing the road, oblivious to the impending danger. One leaps over an imaginary fence and the rest follow, as sheep are wont to do.. Without warning, one of them stops in the path of the oncoming semi-trailer. Suddenly, a man in a pair of blue overalls runs out onto the road, dragging a small trolley. He unrolls two cables and attaches large alligator clips to either side of the sheep, then flips a switch on the trolley.. The sheep leaps to life again, springing off the road to safety. The man in overalls quickly pushes his trolley out of the way, waving to the truck driver as he passes ...
Ancon sheep (also called Otter sheep) are a grouping of domestic sheep with long bodies and very short legs, with the fore-legs being crooked. The term is generally applied to a line of sheep bred from a single affected lamb born in 1791 in Massachusetts, USA. The breed was artificially selected and maintained for its desirable inability to jump over fences. It was allowed to go extinct in 1876 when it was no longer required. The name Ancon has also been applied to other strains of sheep arising from individuals with the same phenotype, such as a Norwegian stock bred from a single individual born in 1919, and a Texan, USA stock bred from a single individual born in 1962. These lineages were also allowed to go extinct after scientists no longer needed them for genetic research. Excavations in Leicester, UK have also revealed metacarpals, metatarsals and phalanges characteristic of Ancon sheep that date to approximately AD 1500, thereby demonstrating that the phenotype has arisen independently ...

Abstract. This study was carried out to estimate Calcium (Ca) and Magnesium (Mg) levels in the blood of lactating ewes infested with tapeworms in comparison with those of healthy sheep. Worms were diagnosed by microscopic examination of stool samples to identify eggs and adult worms. Blood and stool samples of twenty two lactating Awassi ewes (aged between 18-24 months) were collected; 12 samples represented positive infestation with tapeworms by clinical investigation, fecal egg count (FEC) and packed cell volume (PCV reported as percent). The results for blood packed cell volume of an individual ewe of this group fell below 20%, while (FEC) were above 1000 eggs per gram (epg), and 10 samples represented the control group whose fecal sample shows very low epg, while PCV was higher than 20%, with no clinical signs of parasitic infection. Tapeworms infestation in sheep causes a significant decrease in serum Ca levels, while no significant changes were observed in Mg level.. الهدف من هذه ...
Navajo-Churro sheep are a rare primitive breed, descended from the Churra, an ancient Iberian breed prized by the Spanish for its remarkable hardiness, adaptability and fecundity.. It was from Churro wool that the early Rio Grande, Pueblo, and Navajo textiles were woven -- a fleece admired by collectors for its luster, silky hand, variety of natural colors and durability.. These sheep with their long staple of protective top coat and soft undercoat are well suited to extremes of climate. The flavor of the meat is incomparably superior, with a surprisingly low fat content.. ​. Slow Food USA has put the Navajo Churro on the Ark of Taste, naming it a national treasure.. ​. Our sheep are rotated through our grass/clover pastures all year long and are proudly hormone-free, antibiotic free (except in the case of serious illness or injury), and come straight from our farm in Shelby County, Indiana. When necessary, they are supplemented with non-GMO grain mix.. ​. Our lambs are taken to a USDA ...
One of the more bizarre runner games, Sheep Happens takes some Greek myths and legends and mixes them with random sheep and a lot of humour. You take on the role of Perseus, who is on the trail of Hermes in a pair of winged sandals that just wont stop running. To catch him, you have to run through a stadium filled with athletes taking part in various events. Weightlifting sheep. Tug of war sheep. Hurdles, with the odd sheep running the track beside you. You get the idea; sheep are everywhere. There is some help. You have a cape that allows you to glide over some of the more difficult hurdles. And should you cause a sheep-filled chain reaction, the animals raining down will helpfully take out fellow athletes, hurdles and other obstacles, while also earning you a nice combo score. There are battles with Olympic gods too, in this chaotic, funny take on the traditional runner ...
The mechanics to this game can be quickly summed up. Tap the screen to shoot the Zombie Marionettes, tilt your iDevice to move your sheep, and shake your iDevice to reload your weapon. When I say shoddily made marionettes, it is not a knock on the graphics but these silly puppets start falling apart the second they appear on the screen and unless you manage to shoot them in the head quickly, their heads will leave their crumbling bodies behind and take the form of a deadly Flaming Skull. Your poor little Bait Sheep not only has to avoid the raining Flaming Skulls (if one hits your poor little sheep you?ll lose one of your initial 3 hearts), but has to scramble about to collect the dropping coins (how your sheep can pickup and store these coins is never really explained). So now, even though you and your sheep are marked for death and you can?t escape the haunted theatre, you?re more than free at any time to duck out of the action for a trip to the concession stand for sheep medications and ...

Contagious agalactia (CA) is one of the main contagious diseases that affect small ruminants. The main causal agent is Mycoplasma agalactiae, a contagious bacterium that leads to chronic infections. Prophylaxis is considered to be the most viable, economical and sustainable method to combat this pathogen. There are currently several inactivated vaccines against M. agalactiae in Spain. The objective of this study was to compare the short-term and long-term serological response to different commercial vaccines against M.agalactiae available in Spain.. ...
This one is going to need more than just your imagination. You need to make sure that all the sheep are safe and that the other things are gone from the screen. Once you click on the wrong sheep, you may lose it or you may lose the game altogether. It is not easy to figure it out in the first place, however, with practice you should be able to become an expert in looking after sheep with the click of a mouse. Therefore, dont waste time and start looking after your sheep!
Keith Kendrick and colleagues at the Babraham Institute in Cambridge, England, investigated the sheeps ability to distinguish and remember faces of both other sheep and humans. Presenting 20 sheep with pictures of 25 pairs of sheep faces, the researchers trained the animals to associate one of the pair with a food reward. They determined that the sheep could recognize the individuals associated with a reward even in profile and for up to two years. By measuring activity in the right temporal and medial frontal cortices-regions of the ovine brain associated with visual recognition-the team further discovered that sheep can remember as many as 50 sheep faces in addition to a familiar human face. And sightings of familiar faces do not go unacknowledged. The scientists report clear behavioral signs of recognizing both absent individuals by vocalizing in response to their face pictures in the same way as they did to faces of other members of their current social circle. So the next time you hear a ...
Developed consultancy work in environmental management/planning, flock and stud Merino sheep classing and management from 1985. Since expanded this into specialist genetic advisory services. More recently my consultancy work focuses on regenerative landscape management and healthy grazing eco-systems. This includes work in Australia, and in 2013 as a consultant for the international aid organisation ADRA in Myanmars Dry Zone.. 1975 to present - Manager, grazing property Severn Park.. 1975 to 2008 - Principal, partner and founder Severn Park Merino Stud. Over time, utilising molecular-genetic and biological knowledge, this involved innovative pioneering of a new type of Merino sheep under the SRS system, focused on elite fibre production and multiple trait incorporation (meat, fertility, disease resistance). Part of this was the development of a mules-free, animal welfare and environmentally friendly sheep type. The Stud was dispersed in 2008.. Between 1990 and 1996 was co-founder and ...
Q. I see youve got 3 fine sheep in the field there, you say to the farmer. Actually, he replies, there might be 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5 or 4, depending. Depending on what? Whats this wiseacre thinking? -B. Peep. A. Maybe wise thoughts, as he explains that 1 of the 3 is a lamb, say Michael Blastland and Andrew Dilnot in The Tiger that Isnt: Seeing Through a World of Numbers. So does a lamb still count as a full sheep, or is it half a sheep? Also, one is a pregnant ewe in advanced labor, he continues. Would that one be 1, 1.5, or 2? (Assuming no multiple sheep births.) Therefore, depending on how the units are defined, the sheep total could be any of the numbers I gave initially, says the farmer. Thus, suggest the authors, the farmer did successfully parlay the laughably simple example of 3 sheep into 5 answers, which is quite a spread, one of them twice the size of another, and counting to 4 just became ridiculous.. Moral: You can count on many things in life to be not quite what they first ...
Sheep are a prey animal. When they are faced with danger, their natural instinct is to flee not fight. Their strategy is to use avoidance and rapid flight to avoid being eaten.. Some primitive sheep breeds may be able to more effectively evade predators, as their natural instincts are stronger. Domesticated sheep have come to rely on man for protection from predators ...

Ive recently discovered the wonders of what is perhaps fashions best-kept secret-the scarf. Id always dismissed the scarf as a ridiculous gesture toward high fashion, or perhaps an errant nod in the direction of political activism. But this winter, I had the delightful opportunity to wear a scarf for the first time, and I have to admit, theres actually something there.. Now, Im not a scientist, though I do sometimes wear lab coats when all my t-shirts are in the wash. Im not quite sure why scarves have made such a difference in tempering me for the harsh Victorian winters. My suspicions would be that somehow the combination of upward air of the flatulogical type and the insulating nature of the wool has created a perfect storm of warmth and comfort. A corporeal vortex, if you will. A warm front moving up from the south-southeast with a variable chance of drizzle but a steady and improving scattering of light fog.. I remember when I first noticed people around me wearing scarves. Just a few ...
These results indicate that Hc-TGFBR2 plays an important role in governing developmental processes in H. contortus via the TGF-β signalling pathway, particularly in the transition from the free-living to the parasitic stages.
