Journal Article
Stokes, J. E., Tarlinton, R. E., Lovatt, F., Baylis, M., Carson, A., & Duncan, J. S. (2018). A survey to determine the farm level impact of Schmallenberg virus during the 2016-17 UK lambing season. Veterinary Record, https://doi.org/10.1136/vr.104866

Schmallenberg virus (SBV) causes abortions, still births and fetal malformations in naive ruminants. The impact of the initial outbreak (2011/2012) on British sheep farms has been previously investigated, with higher farmer perceived impacts and incr...

Identification of stable reference genes for quantitative PCR in koalas (2018)
Journal Article
Sarker, N., Fabijan, J., Emes, R. D., Hemmatzadeh, F., Meers, J., Moreton, J., …Tarlinton, R. E. (in press). Identification of stable reference genes for quantitative PCR in koalas. Scientific Reports, 8, Article 3364. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-21723-0

To better understand host and immune response to diseases, gene expression studies require identification of reference genes with stable expression for accurate normalisation. This study describes the identification and testing of reference genes wit... Read More about Identification of stable reference genes for quantitative PCR in koalas.
