Bat white-nose syndrome: An emerging fungal pathogen? Bat white-nose syndrome: An emerging fungal pathogen?
White-nose syndrome (WNS) is a condition associated with an unprecedented bat mortality event in the northeastern United States. Since the winter of 2006*2007, bat declines exceeding 75% have been observed at surveyed hibernacula. Affected bats often present with visually striking white fungal growth on their muzzles, ears, and/or wing membranes. Direct microscopy and culture analyses...

Using amplified fragment length polymorphism analysis to differentiate isolates of Pasteurella multocida serotype 1 Using amplified fragment length polymorphism analysis to differentiate isolates of Pasteurella multocida serotype 1
Avian cholera, an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Pasteurella multocida, kills thousands of North American wild waterfowl annually. Pasteurella multocida serotype 1 isolates cultured during a laboratory challenge study of Mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) and collected from wild birds and environmental samples during avian cholera outbreaks were characterized using amplified...
