Genotyping of Toxoplasma gondii from pigs in Yucatan, Mexico (2018)
Journal Article

Toxoplasmosis is a zoonotic disease of worldwide distribution. The parasite exhibits strong geographical patterns
of strain variation with contrasting high levels of diversity across South America and restricted variation across
North America. Litt... Read More about Genotyping of Toxoplasma gondii from pigs in Yucatan, Mexico.

Investigation into the genetic diversity in toll-like receptors 2 and 4 in the European badger Meles meles (2018)
Journal Article

The Toll-like receptor (TLR) genes are a conserved family of genes central to the innate immune response to pathogen infection. They encode receptor proteins, recognise pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and trigger initial immune respons...

Skin swabs with FTA® cards as a dry storage source for amphibian DNA (2018)
Journal Article
Ward, A., Hide, G., & Jehle, R. (2019). Skin swabs with FTA® cards as a dry storage source for amphibian DNA. Conservation Genetics Resources, 11, 309-311. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12686-018-1018-z

Amphibians are the most endangered group of vertebrates, and conservation measures increasingly rely on information drawn from genetic markers. The present study explores skin swabs with Whatman FTA® cards as a method to retrieve PCR-amplifiable amph... Read More about Skin swabs with FTA® cards as a dry storage source for amphibian DNA.
