ABSTRACT: Absence of high priority critically important antimicrobial resistance in Salmonella sp. isolated from Australian commercial egg layer environments
Project description:Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. isolated from Australian meat chickens remain susceptible to critically important antimicrobial agents

Project description:Identification and molecular characterization of critically important antimicrobial-resistant Escherichia coli isolated from Australian Silver Gull faecal samples
Project description:Association of egg mass and egg sex: gene expression analysis from maternal RNA in the germinal disc region of layer hens (Gallus gallus)
Project description:Comparative analysis of gene expression profiles in newly developed housing systems is important to understand gene functions in chicken for adaptation and possible gene-environment interactions among layer lines. Therefore, the objective of this study was to characterize the molecular processes that are different among the two layer lines Lohmann Selected Leghorn (LSL) and Lohmann Brown (LB) using whole genome RNA expression profiles. Despite their approximately identical egg production performance these layer lines differ markedly in other phenotypic traits. The two layer lines were kept under the production environment of the newly developed small group housing system Eurovent German with two different group sizes and three tiers. We used a chicken RNA microarray to identify differentially expressed genes among the two layer lines LSL and LB.
