Development of the Chick Microbiome: How Early Exposure Influences Future Microbial Diversity
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2016 The concept of improving animal health through improved gut health has existed in food animal production for decades; however, only recently have we had the tools to identify microbes in the intestine associated with improved performance.

Molecular cloning and characterization of B-cadherin, a novel chick cadherin. [PDF]
, 1991 Calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion is mediated in large part by a set of homologous integral membrane glycoproteins termed cadherins. In this report, antibodies to conserved domains in previously described cadherins have been used to isolate cDNAs ...
