Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Clostridium difficile is an important cause of intestinal infections in some animal species and animals might be a reservoir for community associated human infections. Here we describe a collection of animal associated C. difficile strains from 12 countries based on inclusion criteria of one strain (PCR ribotype) per animal species per laboratory.RESULTS:Altogether 112 isolates were collected and distributed into 38 PCR ribotypes with agarose based approach and 50 PCR ribotypes with sequencer based approach. Four PCR ribotypes were most prevalent in terms of number of isolates as we

Full text
Abstract:
The hypothesis that midge sex pheromones could be chemically more diverse in structure than previously thought was tested in the context of four midge species of importance to UK horticulture: pear leaf midge, Dasineura pyri; pear midge, Contarinia pyrivora; blackcurrant midge, D. tetensi; and blackberry midge, D. plicatrix. The major component of the pheromone of D. pyri was identified as (2R, 13R, 8Z)-2, 13-diacetoxy-8-heptadecene. Four isomers were separated by HPLC and in field tests the first eluting isomer only was attractive to male midges. Analysis of volatile collections from female C

Abstract:
The dromedary camel (Camelus dromedarius) commonly referred to as ‘ship of the desert’ has played an important part in the development and expansion of trading networks across inhospitable habitats over 3000 years, linking Arabian, Asian, African and European civilisations. Caravan roads, which are part of the major trading networks, have facilitated livestock exchange across large geographic distances. Dromedary camels are known to have been extensively used as pack animals along these caravan roads. Archaeological records point towards the southern Arabian Peninsula as the origin of the dome

Full text
Abstract:
Although viruses are ubiquitous, infecting all biological entities including viruses themselves, we know relatively little of viral diversity beyond those implicated in diseases affecting humans and domestic plants and animals. Recent advances in metagenomic sequencing technologies, particularly bulk RNA shotgun sequencing ('meta-transcriptomics'), have enabled a dramatic increase in our understanding of virus diversity and evolution. However, although likely central to disease emergence, the total viral diversity (i.e. virome) of many vertebrates and their eukaryotic parasites remain uncharac

Abstract:
The interactions between host and gut microbiota are a rapidly developing field with a plethora of implications. Recent developments in identification and quantification methods of gut microbes allow for a better understanding of said interactions. For the local broiler production industry, studying the microbiome of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) is imperative to ensure ease of transitioning into an antibiotic-free feeding practice. Clostridium perfringens infections are a major burden for the global poultry industry and can lead to necrotic enteritis (NE). The economic losses induced b

Abstract:
Opisthokonta is an eukaryotic supergroup that contains Metazoa, Fungi and their unicellular relatives. Therefore, this group provides an ideal framework to study distinct unicellular-multicellular transitions, among them, the transition towards animal multicellularity. This thesis aims to describe new Opisthokonta diversity at many different levels, a very neeeded starting point to better understand the evolution of opisthokonts and the origin of multicellularity in animals. In particular, we here described a new genus and species at the onset of Holomycota (Parvularia atlantis), detected new
