Current understanding of lymphoproliferative disease virus in wild turkeys
Lymphoproliferative disease virus (LPDV) is a retrovirus that can cause a spectrum of disease in wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo), from subclinical infection to lymphoid tumors. We reviewed the literature to summarize our current understanding of LPDV, including disease presentation, surveillance, impact on fitness, spatiotemporal distribution, and ...

Environmental influences on development of aflatoxins in supplemental feed for wildlife
Millions of people provide grains as supplemental feed for wildlife. Environmental conditions can lead to those grains developing deleterious concentrations of aflatoxins from naturally occurring Aspergillus fungi. We studied aflatoxin development in grains under controlled conditions to provide best practices to minimize the risk of aflatoxin exposure

Detection of Modality-Specific Properties in Unimodal and Bimodal Events during Prenatal Development [PDF]
Predictions of the Intersensory Redundancy Hypothesis (IRH) state that early in development information presented to a single sense modality (unimodal) selectively recruits attention to and enhances perceptual learning of modality-specific properties of ...

Studies with Bobwhite Quail: Reproductive Characteristics
Abstract As part of a program exploring procedures for handling caged Bobwhite quail, we have examined certain reproductive characteristics; specifically 1) effect of length of egg storage on hatchability, 2) duration of fertility following removal of males, and 3) age at sexual maturity.
