Bovine neonatal monocytes display phenotypic differences compared with adults after challenge with the infectious abortifacient agent Neospora caninum (2018)
Journal Article
Sharma, P., Hartley, C. S., Haque, M., Coffey, T. J., Egan, S. A., & Flynn, R. J. (2018). Bovine neonatal monocytes display phenotypic differences compared with adults after challenge with the infectious abortifacient agent Neospora caninum. Frontiers in Immunology, 9, Article 3011. https://doi.org/10.3389/fimmu.2018.03011

The neonatal period represents a window of susceptibility for ruminants given the abundance of infectious challenges in their environment. Maternal transfer of immunity does not occur in utero but post-parturition, however this does not compensate fo...

Journal Article
Blanchard, A. M., Jolley, K. A., Maiden, M. C., Coffey, T. J., Maboni, G., Staley, C. E., …Tötemeyer, S. (in press). The applied development of a tiered multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme for Dichelobacter nodosus. Frontiers in Microbiology, 9, Article 551. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2018.00551

Dichelobacter nodosus (D. nodosus) is the causative pathogen of ovine footrot, a disease that has a significant welfare and financial impact on the global sheep industry. Previous studies into the phylogenetics of D. nodosus have focused on Australia...
