The Relationship Between Immunopathology and Body Condition of Mixed‐Age Ewes
Ill thrift in ewes, characterised by less than desirable body condition, is a multifactorial condition often attributed to nutritional deficits, though immunopathological factors may also play a role. This study investigated associations between body condition scores (BCS) and immunopathological states in 120 mixed‐age ewes grazing pasture over 4 ...

Transmission of Paratuberculosis
The causative organism of paratuberculosis, Mycobacterium paratuberculosis, inhabits the intestinal tract and mesenteric lymph nodes of infected cows. While paratuberculosis has generally been regarded as an enteric infection, there is now evidence that the organism can disseminate to extra-intestinal sites such as uterus, supramammary lymph nodes ...
