Developing a Climate Impact Indicator Framework for the UK Agri‐Food Sector: A Literature Review and Stakeholder Co‐Production Approach

open access: yesClimate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 2, December 2026.
The paper outlines the methodology followed in choosing five key indicators which will be used in a forthcoming annual review of the impact of weather and climate on the UK agri‐food sector. This is done through an initial literature review, a synthesis of the currently understood impacts of weather and climate, and insights from group of experts and ...

Design and optimisation of rapid real‐time PCR assays for the detection of key Culicoides species

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 949-960, December 2026.
Species‐specific real‐time PCR assays were designed and optimised using primer/probe sets targeting C. obsoletus, C. scoticus, C. chiopterus, C. dewulfi, C. pulicaris, C. punctatus and C. impunctatus. Primer specificity and amplification efficiency were validated through in silico specificity analysis and real‐time PCR amplification profiling.

Bluetongue virus structure and assembly [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Virology, 2017
Bluetongue virus (BTV) is an insect-vectored emerging pathogen of wild ruminants and livestock in many parts of the world. The virion particle is a complex structure of consecutive layers of protein surrounding a genome of ten double-stranded (ds) RNA segments. BTV has been studied as a model system for large, non-enveloped dsRNA viruses.

Impact of bauxite mining on mosquito communities (Diptera: Culicidae) and pathogen transmission risks in the eastern Amazon

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 1029-1051, December 2026.
Bauxite mining in the Amazon alters mosquito communities, favouring anthropophilic and generalist vectors while reducing species diversity and the variety of blood meal sources. Molecular analyses identified humans, tapirs and deer as the primary blood meal sources.

Immunization against active ghrelin using virus-like particles for obesity treatment. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Ghrelin is a gut hormone that stimulates food intake. In physiological conditions, ghrelin plasma levels rise with fasting and decrease after meals. Obese individuals have low fasting ghrelin levels that rise after food restriction, which is pointed out ...

Establishment of a bluetongue virus infection model in mice that are deficient in the alpha/beta interferon receptor. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Bluetongue (BT) is a noncontagious, insect-transmitted disease of ruminants caused by the bluetongue virus (BTV). A laboratory animal model would greatly facilitate the studies of pathogenesis, immune response and vaccination against BTV. Herein, we show
