Periparturient mortality in merino ewes in Australia: Incidence, impact and the path to mitigation strategies

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 103, Issue 5, Page 287-297, May 2025.
Managing breeding ewe mortality is a priority for the Australian sheep industry. The periparturient period carries the highest risk of mortality, but the incidence and causes in Merino ewes are not well characterised. Here, we outline the reported incidence of annual and periparturient mortality for Australian Merino ewes, causes and risk factors for ...

The role of PilU in the surface behaviors of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

mLife, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 83-95, February 2025.
Abstract In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the dynamic activity of type IV pilus (TFP) is essential for various bacterial behaviors. While PilU is considered a homolog of the TFP disassembling motor PilT, its specific roles remain unclear. Using pilus visualization and single‐cell tracking techniques, we characterized TFP dynamics and surface behaviors in ...

Survival of contagious ovine digital dermatitis (CODD)‐associated treponemes on disposable gloves after handling CODD‐affected feet

Veterinary Record, Volume 181, Issue 4, Page 89-89, July 2017., 2017
Both contagious ovine digital dermatitis (CODD) and bovine digital dermatitis (BDD) are causes of infectious lameness in sheep and cattle, respectively, and are strongly associated with the presence of specific treponemes, with three different cultivable phylogroups commonly isolated: Treponema medium, Treponema phagedenis and Treponema pedis.
