  1. Ticks need not bite their red grouse hosts to infect them with louping ill virus.

    Proc Biol Sci (2004) PMID 15252984 PMCID 1810039

    We demonstrate experimentally a transmission route whereby hosts (red grouse, Lagopus lagopus scoticus) became infected with a member of the tick-borne encephalitis virus complex, louping ill virus, after eating the infected tick vector. Furthermore, we estimated from field observations that this mo...
  2. Genetic variability in South African blue wildebeest (Connochaetes oaurinus).

    Comp Biochem Physiol B 106(3):755-62 (1993) PMID 8281767

    We use protein gel-electrophoresis to investigate genetic heterogeneity at 33 protein coding loci in a total of 46 blue wildebeest (C. taurinus) kept under different management regimes. 2. Average heterozygosity ranged from 2.14 to 4.3% and within-population differences accounted for 97.2% of total...
