High prevalence of antibodies against feline calicivirus in Australian feral and stray cat (Felis catus) populations

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, Volume 102, Issue 11, Page 550-563, November 2024.
Introduction Feline calicivirus (FCV) commonly causes upper respiratory tract, oral and ocular infections in species of the family Felidae, with high prevalence amongst domestic cat (Felis catus) populations worldwide. Detection of FCV‐specific antibodies in serum provides evidence of previous infection with FCV and an indication of whether a cat may ...

GnRH Single-Injection Immunocontraception of Black-Tailed Deer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
High deer densities increase vehicle collisions, damage agricultural crops, and amplify the spread of zoonotic and animal diseases, intensifying human-deer conflict.

After Decades of Suburban Deer Research and Management in the Eastern United States: Where Do We Go From Here?

open access: yesHuman-Wildlife Interactions, 2020
State wildlife agencies have regulatory authority and oversight over deer (Cervidae) management in the United States. However, increased urban sprawl and overabundant deer populations have created increased human–deer conflicts.

A career in numbers: A citation network analysis of the work of RP Millar and his contribution to GnRH research

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 36, Issue 10, October 2024.
Here, we use citation network analysis in a novel manner to identify the particular topics to which RP Millar's papers have made a particular contribution. This analysis shows that it makes no sense to conceive of the citation impact of an author in isolation; it depends on the existence of a receptive community that is alert to the potential utility ...

Immunogenicity of a Recombinant Gonadotropin-releasing Hormone Associated to the B Subunit of Escherichia coli Heat-labile Enterotoxin Expressed in Pichia pastoris and Escherichia coli Platforms

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2021
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is one of the main targets for the development of immunocontraceptives vaccines. The aim of this study was to clone and express the recombinant GnRH fused to the B subunit of Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin (

Management of intraspecific aggression in two bull giraffes (Giraffa camelopardalis ssp. rothschildi)

open access: yesZoo Biology, Volume 43, Issue 4, Page 383-390, July/August 2024.
The gonadotrophin‐releasing hormone vaccine Improvac® was associated with a reduction in aggressive behaviors, although these did not significantly diminish until the fourth vaccination. However, 8 months following the initial vaccination with Improvac®, the unvaccinated bull exhibited heightened aggression, resulting in an injury to the vaccinated ...

IN VITRO FERTILITY TEST OF HUMAN SPERMATOZOA MEMBRANE PROTEIN FERTILIN BETA ANTIBODY IN MICE (Mus musculus Balb/c) AS IMMUNOCONTRACEPTIVE CANDIDATE

open access: yesFolia Medica Indonesiana, 2017
One of the materials as potential candidates immunocontraception material is spermatozoa. Fertilin beta is spermatozoa membrane protein and is found only in mature spermatozoa and ejaculate, which serves as an adhesion molecule.

Harem size should be measured by more than the sum of its parts: Phenology‐based measurements reveal joint effects of intrinsic and extrinsic factors on a polygamous herbivore under non‐stationary climatic conditions

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2024.
In our study we investigate harem size phenology and related variation in a large polygamous herbivore, the Przewalski horse, using a 15‐year dataset from an introduced population in Hortobágy National Park, Hungary. Our results demonstrate that intrinsic population processes can play a major role in regulating group size and counter the effects of ...

Developing fertility control for rodents: a framework for researchers and practitioners

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 87-107, January 2024.
A framework to guide researchers developing wildlife fertility control applications requires iterative and parallel studies from the laboratory and enclosure studies through to population‐level, replicated field trials. Modeling different scenarios may guide field testing of fertility control either applied alone or combined with other management ...

Porcine zona pellucida immunocontraception in mares

open access: yes, 2017
Immunocontraceptive vaccines induce an immune response to a hormone or protein critical for normal reproductive function, culminating in infertility. Interest in zona pellucida-based immunocontraception began over forty years ago. The zona pellucida (ZP)
