Identification of a bovine surface antigen uniquely expressed on CD4/CD8 negative TCR-gamma/delta positive T lymphocytes by Clevers, H.C., MacHugh, Niall D., Bensaid, A., Dunlap, S., Baldwin, Cynthia L., Kaushal, A., Iams, K.P., Howard, C.J., Morrison, W. Ivan

“…Immunohistological analyses revealed the presence of IL‐A29/CC15‐positive lymphocytes in the thymic medulla, in the outer cortex of lymph nodes, in the marginal zones of the spleen, in the dermal and epidermal layers of the skin and in the lamina propria of the gut. The IL‐A29/CC15+ cells in unfractionated blood mononuclear cells responded in autologous and allogeneic mixed lymphocyte cultures, and when purified they responded to concanavalin A in the presence of recombinant interleukin 2. …”

Feeding behaviour of Glossina pallidipes and G. morsitans centralis on Boran cattle infected with Trypanosoma congolense or T. vivax under laboratory conditions by Moloo, S.K., Sabwa, C.L., Baylis, M.

“…The increase in feeding success was not related to changes in the level of anaemia, skin surface termperature or parasitaemia. A possible explanation is the effects of trypanosome infection on cutaneous vasodilation and/or blood clotting in infected cattle. …”

Genetic mapping using genotypingbysequencing in the clonally propagated cassava by Rabbi, Ismail Y., Hamblin, M., Gedil, Melaku A, Kulakow, Peter A., Ferguson, Morag E., Ikpan, A., Ly, D., Jannink, Jean-Luc

“…As a first step toward implementing genomewide genetic studies that will facilitate rapid genetic gain through breed-ing, we genotyped-by-sequencing a set of 182 full-sibs population of cassava that segregated in several traits: resistance to the cassava mosaic disease (CMD) and yield under CMD pressure; increased carotenoid content in storage roots; color of stem exterior and anthocyanin pigmen-tation in the petioles, inner root skin, and api-cal leaves. Employing a rare-cutting restriction enzyme, PstI, in a genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) library preparation, we obtained 2478 segregating single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), of which 1257 passed standard filter-ing for missing genotypes and deviation from expected genotypic frequencies. …”

Combined effects of pesticides and trematode infections on hourglass tree frog Polypedates cruciger by Jayawardena, U.A., Rohr, J.R., Navaratne, A.N., Amerasinghe, Priyanie H., Rajakaruna, R.S.

“…In isolation, both cercarial and pesticide exposure significantly decreased frog survival, development, and growth, and increased developmental malformations, such as scoliosis, kyphosis, and also edema and skin ulcers. The combination of cercariae and pesticides generally posed greater risk to frogs than either factor alone by decreasing survival or growth or increasing time to metamorphosis or malformations. …”

Management of rootknot nematodes on Solanum macrocarpon using botanicals in Benin by Loumedjinon, S., Godonou, I., Atcha-Ahowé, C., James, B., Baimey, H., Coyne, Danny L., Ahanchédé, A.

“…In the search for IPM options, the effect of 5, 20, 35 and 50 g of dried skin peels of cassava storage roots (CP) and orange fruits (OP) each on incidence and damage severity of RKNs and biomass of S. macrocarpon was compared to that of 1, 2, 3 and 4 mg of commercially available fungal nematicide Paecilomyces lilacinus (Pl) and the chemical nematicide Rugby10 applied at 0.4 gpotted S. macrocarpon. …”

Early detection of mechanical damage in mango using NIR hyperspectral images and machine learning by Vélez-Rivera, Nayeli, Gómez-Sanchís, Juan, Chanona-Perez, Jorge, Carrasco, Juan José, Millán-Giraldo, Mónica, Lorente, Delia, Cubero, Sergio, Blasco, José

“…Eleven feature-selection methods were used and compared to determine the wavelengths, while another five classification methods were used to segment the resulting multispectral images and classify the skin of the mangos as sound or damaged. A 97.9% rate of correct classification of pixels was achieved on the third day after the damage had been caused using k-Nearest Neighbours and the whole spectra and the figure dropped to 91.4% when only the most discriminant bands were used.…”
