Investigating inbreeding in the turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) genome [PDF]

, 2021
The detrimental effects of increased homozygosity due to inbreeding have prompted the development of methods to reduce inbreeding. The detection of runs of homozygosity (ROH), or contiguous stretches of homozygous marker genotypes, can be used to ...

Habitat diversity influences puma Puma concolor diet in the Chihuahuan Desert

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2021, Issue 4, 2021., 2021
Habitat heterogeneity and corresponding diversity in potential prey species should increase the diet breadth of generalist predators. Many previous studies describing puma Puma concolor diets in the arid regions of the southwestern United States were focused within largely xeric locations, overlooking the influence of heterogeneity created by riparian ...

Meleagris Gallopavo Algorithmfor Solving Optimal Reactive Power Problem [PDF]

, 2018
In this paper, Meleagris Gallopavo Algorithm (MGA) is proposed for solving optimal reactive power problem. As a group-mate Meleagris gallopavo follow their poultry to explore food, at the same time it prevent the same ones to eat their own food.

Home Ranges of Female Rio Grande Turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) in Southern Texas

The Southwestern Naturalist, 2012
Abstract We captured and placed radiotransmitters on 27, 37, and 51 female Rio Grande turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) on the Encino, Norias, and Laureles divisions of King Ranch, respectively, in Brooks, Kenedy, and Kleberg counties, Texas. Mean annual sizes of home ranges were 838–5,867 ha, which were larger than most individual holdings of ...

Large scale single nucleotide polymorphism discovery in unsequenced genomes using second generation high throughput sequencing technology: applied to turkey [PDF]

, 2009
Background The development of second generation sequencing methods has enabled large scale DNA variation studies at moderate cost. For the high throughput discovery of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in species lacking a sequenced reference genome,

Avian influenza overview October 2016-August 2017. [PDF]

EFSA J, 2017
Abstract The A(H5N8) highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) epidemic occurred in 29 European countries in 2016/2017 and has been the largest ever recorded in the EU in terms of number of poultry outbreaks, geographical extent and number of dead wild birds.

Whole genome comparative studies between chicken and turkey and their implications for avian genome evolution [PDF]

, 2008
BACKGROUND: Comparative genomics is a powerful means of establishing inter-specific relationships between gene function/location and allows insight into genomic rearrangements, conservation and evolutionary phylogeny.

WILD TURKEYS AS MONITORS OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 1975
Wildlife are usually considered vectors, reservoirs, or primary targets of infectious disease. This paper illustrates that they can also serve as sentinels of disease activity. In Texas, the Rio Grande wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) is well
