Lactobacilli have been reported as being a predominant bacterial type in the intestinal tract of various warm-blooded animals. For instance, Crecelius and Rettger (1943) found that lactobacilli are the most prevalent bacteria in the intestinal tract of guinea pigs. Shapiro and Sarles (1949) reported that lactobacilli are the most numerous bacteria in most areas of the intestinal tract of chicke...

People living in Mesoamerica and what is now the eastern southwestern United States used turkeys ( Meleagris gallopavo ) as sources of meat, eggs, bones, feathers. Turkey husbandry domestication are confirmed two these regions (Mesoamerica American Southwest), but human-turkey interactions Eastern North (eastern Canada) not fully explored. We apply stable isotope (δ 13 C, δ 15 N) ancient mitoch...

We analyze the physical mechanisms limiting optical fiber resonator length and report on the longest ever laser cavity, reaching 270 km, which shows a clearly resolvable mode structure with a width of approximately 120 Hz and peak separation of approximately 380 Hz in the radio-frequency spectrum.

Despite advances in sequencing technology, there are still significant numbers of well-characterized enzymatic activities for which there are no known associated sequences. These 'orphan enzymes' represent glaring holes in our biological understanding, and it is a top priority to reunite them with their coding sequences. Here we report a methodology for resolving orphan enzymes through a combin...

Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) is economically important pathogen of poultry causes airsacculitis and frequently infraorbital sinusitis in turkeys. Infections may remain without clinical signs, but they can make birds susceptible to secondary infections.This study was carried out for molecular detection and phylogenetic analysis of MG infections in commercial and backyard turkey flocks ...
