Journal ArticleDOI
The Evolutionary Genetics and Emergence of Avian Influenza Viruses in Wild Birds
Vivien G. Dugan,Rubing Chen,David J. Spiro,Naomi Sengamalay,Jennifer Zaborsky,Elodie Ghedin,Jacqueline M. Nolting,David E. Swayne,Jonathan A. Runstadler,George M. Happ,Dennis A. Senne,Ruixue Wang,Richard D. Slemons,Edward C. Holmes,Jeffery K. Taubenberger +14 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that AIV in wild birds forms transient “genome constellations,” continually reshuffled by reassortment, in contrast to the spread of a limited number of stable genome constellation that characterizes the evolution of mammalian-adapted influenza A viruses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using RRT-PCR analysis and virus isolation to determine the prevalence of avian influenza virus infections in ducks at Minto Flats State Game Refuge, Alaska, during August 2005
Jonathan A. Runstadler,George M. Happ,Richard D. Slemons,Zong-Mei Sheng,N. Gundlach,Michael J. Petrula,Dennis A. Senne,Jacqueline M. Nolting,D. L. Evers,A. Modrell,Heather J. Huson,S. Hills,T. Rothe,T. Marr,Jeffery K. Taubenberger +14 more
TL;DR: Success during 2005 indicates Minto Flats will be a valuable study site for a longitudinal research project designed to gain further insight into the natural history, evolution, and ecology of AIV in wild birds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nomenclature for factors of the dog major histocompatibility system (DLA), 2000: Second report of the ISAG DLA Nomenclature Committee
Lorna J. Kennedy,J. M. Angles,A. Barnes,Stuart D. Carter,Olga Francino,J. A. Gerlach,George M. Happ,William Ernest Royce Ollier,Wendy Thomson,John L. Wagner +9 more
TL;DR: A Nomenclature Committee for factors of the dog major histocompatibility system or dog leukocyte antigen (DLA) has been convened under the auspices of the International Society for Animal Genetics (ISAG) to define a sequence-based nomenclatures for the genes of the DLA system as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extensive interbreed, but minimal intrabreed, variation of DLA class II alleles and haplotypes in dogs.
Lorna J. Kennedy,A. Barnes,George M. Happ,Rupert J. Quinnell,David L.H. Bennett,J. M. Angles,Michael J. Day,N. Carmichael,John F. Innes,D. R. Isherwood,Stuart D. Carter,Wendy Thomson,W.E.R. Ollier +12 more
TL;DR: The high interbreed, and relatively low intrabreed, variation of MHC alleles and haplotypes found in this study could provide an explanation for reports of interbree variation of immune responses to vaccines, viruses and other infections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple sex pheromones of the mealworm beetle, Tenebrio molitor L.
TL;DR: The male pheromones of Tenebrio molitor are of two distinct types: an excitant which attracts females and an ariti-aphrodisiac which inhibits the response of other males to female scent.
