Identification of sero-reactive antigens for the early diagnosis of Johne's disease in cattle. by Lingling Li, John P Bannantine, Joseph J Campo, Arlo Randall, Yrjo T Grohn, Robab Katani, Megan Schilling, Jessica Radzio-Basu, Vivek Kapur

“…JD has a high herd prevalence and causes serious animal health problems and significant economic loss in domesticated ruminants throughout the world. Since serological detection of MAP infected animals during the early stages of infection remains challenging due to the low sensitivity of extant assays, we screened 180 well-characterized serum samples using a whole proteome microarray from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), a close relative of MAP. …”

R-locus for roaned coat is associated with a tandem duplication in an intronic region of USH2A in dogs and also contributes to Dalmatian spotting. by Takeshi Kawakami, Meghan K Jensen, Andrea Slavney, Petra E Deane, Ausra Milano, Vandana Raghavan, Brett Ford, Erin T Chu, Aaron J Sams, Adam R Boyko

“…The tandem duplication is in an intronic region of usherin gene (USH2A), which was perfectly associated with roaning but absent in non-roaned dogs. We detected strong selection signals in this region characterized by reduced nucleotide diversity (π), increased runs of homozygosity, and extended haplotype homozygosity in Wirehaired Pointing Griffons and Australian Cattle Dogs (typically roaned breeds), as well as elevated genetic difference (FST) between Wirehaired Pointing Griffon (roaned) and Labrador Retriever (non-roaned). …”
