Review of published research on primary dysautonomia of domestic animals
Abstract An article published in 1992 by Marion M. Pollin and I.R. Griffiths reviewed the topic of primary dysautonomias of the autonomic nervous system of unidentified origin in multiple domestic species, specifically cats, dogs and horses. Thirty‐one years later, we appear no closer to identifying the causal agents of these strikingly similar ...

Use of Electrical Penetration Graph Technology to Examine Transmission of 'Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum' to Potato by Three Haplotypes of Potato Psyllid (Bactericera cockerelli; Hemiptera: Triozidae). [PDF]
The potato psyllid, Bactericera cockerelli (Šulc) (Hemiptera: Triozidae), is a vector of the phloem-limited bacterium 'Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum' (Lso), the putative causal agent of zebra chip disease of potato.

Linkage and sequence analysis indicate that CCBE1 is mutated in recessively inherited generalised lymphatic dysplasia [PDF]
Generalised lymphatic dysplasia (GLD) is characterised by extensive peripheral lymphoedema with visceral involvement. In some cases, it presents in utero with hydrops fetalis. Autosomal dominant and recessive inheritance has been reported.

Frailty: measurement and utility in avian studies
Here, I discuss the utility of the concept of frailty, which is widely used in human gerontology, for studies of ageing in wild animals and birds in particular. Frailty indices generally aim to capture the age‐specific health status of individuals via relatively simple measures of whole‐organism performance.

Functional characterization of two enhancers located downstream FOXP2 [PDF]
Background: Mutations in the coding region of FOXP2 are known to cause speech and language impairment. However, it is not clear how dysregulation of the gene contributes to language deficit. Interestingly, microdeletions of the region downstream the gene

Driving Triple‐Bottom‐Line Value: Networks and Impacts in South Africa's Emerging Game Meat Industry
ABSTRACT The current game meat industry value chain analysis focuses primarily on individual firm analysis, production costs and mapping of illegal and legal game meat trade routes. Although there is an attempt to demonstrate the sector's potential contribution to conservation, food security, and livelihood improvement, it remains unclear how the ...
