A novel, recombinant myxoma virus-rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) vaccine has been developed for the prevention of myxomatosis and rabbit haemorrhagic disease (RHD). A number of laboratory studies are described illustrating the safety and efficacy of the vaccine following subcutaneous administration in laboratory rabbits from four weeks of age onwards. In these studies, both vaccinated...

Understanding the factors promoting species formation is a major task in evolutionary research. Here, we employ an integrative approach to study the evolutionary history of the Californian scrub white oak species complex (genus Quercus). To infer the relative importance of geographical isolation and ecological divergence in driving the speciation process, we (i) analysed inter- and intraspecifi...

Analysis of the relationship between caecal flora difference and production performance two rabbit species by high-throughput sequencing | Zhiqiang Guo, Bin Wang, Jingzhi Lu, Congyan Li, Liangde Kuang, Xiaoxia Tang, Xiuli Mei, Xiaohong Xie, Xie Agricultural Journals

A 1-year-old, male, lop-eared rabbit presented for anorexia and weakness. dental trim medical treatment gastrointestinal stasis were implemented. Owners reclaimed the animal after 2 days. Two-weeks later, its condition had worsened, regurgitation was observed. Thoracic radiographs followed by barium contrast oesophagram revealed bronchopneumonia megaoesophagus. computed tomographic examination ...

  Objective(s): Throughout evolution, mammalians have increasingly lost their ability to regenerate structures however rabbits are exceptional since they develop a blastema in their ear wound for regeneration purposes. Blastema consists of a group of undifferentiated cells capable of dividing and differentiating into the ear tissue. The objective of the present study is to isolate, culture expa...

The antibacterial activity of purified rabbit lysozyme was kinetically investigated at concentrations comparable to those in normal rabbit serum and plasma serum. The bactericidal capability, lysozyme content, and electrophoretic composition of "purified beta-lysin," fractionated from normal rabbit serum, were also examined. In contrast to the extensive antibacterial activity of dilute normal r...

Rabbit meat could play an important role in health, the rural economy, and sustainable development. has excellent nutritional features, such as high protein content, low-fat a percentage of unsaturated fatty acids, low cholesterol sodium levels. In addition, rabbit production contributes to maintaining economic activities marginal areas. However, consumption is still limited due several factors...

Primary and first passage aortic endothelial cells were shown to possess a high affinity receptor for beta-migrating very low density lipoproteins (beta-VLDL) distinct from the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor and scavenger receptor on these cells. In bovine aortic endothelial cells, 125I-rabbit beta-VLDL was taken up and degraded by a high affinity process that was competed for by unlabe...
