Abstract In South Korea, forest scientists refashion themselves as “climate sentinels” as they confront subtle yet disquieting shifts in plant seasonality brought about by climate change. Unlike traditional sentinels, who watch for external threats from a frontier, climate sentinels face ecological anomalies and surprises—such as untimely flowering ...

Impact of climate on Australian, non‐Vector‐borne infectious animal diseases: A scoping review
Changes to Australia's climate continue to be increasingly relevant for human, animal and planetary health, and have far‐reaching impacts on disease emergence and food security. There is a deficit of knowledge in Australia around how climatic conditions are affecting infectious animal diseases, beyond the more obvious spatial distribution changes of ...

The surveillance and risk assessment of wild birds in northern Australia for highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 virus [PDF]
Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), caused by infection with H5N1 virus, is a transboundary disease which has had a significant socio-economic impact on the poultry production systems of Eurasia, and spillover events with mortality in humans and ...

Application of chicken microarrays for gene expression analysis in other avian species [PDF]
With the threat of emerging infectious diseases such as avian influenza, whose natural hosts are thought to be a variety of wild water birds including duck, we are armed with very few genomic resources to investigate large scale immunological gene ...

ABSTRACT Infectious salmon anaemia (ISA) affects Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and is caused by the ISA virus (ISAV). The disease is associated with ISAV strains with deletions in the hemagglutinin‐esterase protein, named HPRΔ variants. The present study was initially designed as a vaccine efficacy study against ISA.

The human Transmembrane Protease Serine 2 is necessary for the production of Group 2 influenza A virus pseudotypes [PDF]
The monomer of influenza haemagglutinin is synthesized as a single polypeptide precursor that during maturation is cleaved by proteases into two active subunits. Other studies have demonstrated that the human Transmembrane Protease Serine 2 (TMPRSS2) can

Avian influenza A viruses generally do not replicate efficiently in human cells, but substitution of glutamic acid (Glu, E) for lysine (Lys, K) at residue 627 of avian influenza virus polymerase basic protein 2 (PB2) can serve to overcome host ...
