Jaagsiekte Sheep Retrovirus Is Necessary and Sufficient To Induce a Contagious Lung Cancer in Sheep
TL;DR: JSRV21 is an infectious and pathogenic molecular clone and is necessary and sufficient to induce sheep pulmonary adenomatosis and is isolated from a tumor genomic DNA library derived from a natural case of SPA.

TL;DR: There is currently no requirement for monitoring and surveillance of B. suis in domestic pigs or in wild life and therefore a lack of systematic epidemiologic data on porcine brucellosis in most MS, and available evidence suggests that currently the wild boar seems to remain the main source of infection for domestic pigs.

TL;DR: The results of this study showed that it is necessary to use multiple genotyping techniques targeting different sources of genetic variation to obtain the level of discrimination necessary to investigate transmission dynamics and trace the source of Map infections.

Do non-ruminant wildlife pose a risk of paratuberculosis to domestic livestock and vice versa in Scotland?

TL;DR: Of the wildlife species known to harbor M. paratuberculosis in Scotland, the rabbit is likely to pose the greatest risk to grazing livestock and the participation of non-ruminant wildlife in the epidemiology of the disease may partially account for this difficulty.
