Spatio-temporal variation of coarse woody debris input in woodland key habitats in central Sweden

open access: yesSilva Fennica, 2011
The persistence of many saproxylic (wood-living) species depends on a readily available supply of coarse woody debris (CWD). Most studies of CWD inputs address stand-level patterns, despite the fact that many saproxylic species depend on landscape ...

Are rapid tests and confirmatory western blot used for cattle and small ruminants TSEs reliable tools for the diagnosis of Chronic Wasting Disease in Europe?

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
The first case of CWD in Europe was detected in a Norwegian reindeer in 2016, followed later by two CWD cases in Norwegian moose. To prevent the potential spread of CWD to the EU, the European Commission (Regulation EU 2017_1972) implemented a CWD ...

Predicting chronic wasting disease in white-tailed deer at the county scale using machine learning

open access: yesScientific Reports
Continued spread of chronic wasting disease (CWD) through wild cervid herds negatively impacts populations, erodes wildlife conservation, drains resource dollars, and challenges wildlife management agencies. Risk factors for CWD have been investigated at

Comparative study of immunoassays, a microelectromechanical systems-based biosensor, and RT-QuIC for the diagnosis of chronic wasting disease in white-tailed deer

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research
Background Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a fatal transmissible spongiform encephalopathy in cervids. The disease is caused by a pathogenic prion, namely PrPSc. Currently, diagnosis of CWD relies on IHC detection of PrPSc in the obex or retropharyngeal
