Abstract: The present invention relates to tick polypeptides and compositions comprising the same, which are useful for treatment or prophylaxis of tick infestation in a subject.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed towards a virus, called Cedar Virus, and its methods of use.

Abstract: The present disclosure teaches the generation of drought tolerant plants. The present disclosure enables manipulation of a phenotypic characteristic referred to as “stay-green” to facilitate drought adaptation in plants by recombinant, mutagenic and/or breeding and selection methods. Plant management practice systems to increase crop yield and harvest efficiency in water-limited environments are also taught herein.

Abstract: The present invention relates to immunogenic polypeptides, immunogenic fragments thereof and compositions comprising same, for use in eliciting an immune response in a subject to a tick. The invention also provides for methods of using said compositions and polypeptides.

Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a novel virus, called Cedar Virus, and its methods of use.

Abstract: The present disclosure teaches generally in the field of vaccination and disease control in cattle and bovine animals. A recombinant bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) vaccine vector is provided for efficient control of one or more bovine pathogens such as those associated with bovine respiratory disease complex, such as bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), and which ameliorates disease conditions caused thereby. Protocols for the management of confined or herded bovine animals are also enabled herein.

Abstract: A sampling apparatus for extracting a sample from a biological subject, the apparatus including, a sampling device including a sampling tool for extracting a sample from the biological subject through a working channel of an endoscope and an isolating member for isolating at least the sample from the working channel during extraction of the sample.

Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a novel virus, called Cedar Virus, and its methods of use.

Abstract: A method of improving the resolution of images from medical imaging devices by removing blurring due to movement of a patient during a scan. The method uses tracking algorithms to extract movement data from a video image of the patient and uses the movement data to correct the scanner date and remove the effects of movement. Also disclosed is a calibration process to calibrate the movement data to the scanner data.

Abstract: A method for determining whether a human individual is or has been infected with Neisseria gonorrhoeae, is provided. The method detects a Neisseria gonorrhoeae, porA nucleic acid fragment obtained from a biological sample. The method includes subjecting the biological sample to nucleic acid sequence amplification using primers having respective nucleotide sequences according to SEQ ID NO:1 and SEQ ID NO:2, to thereby produce a porA Neisseria gonorrhoeae, amplification product. The amplification product is detected by fluorescence resonance energy transfer using oligonucleotides having respective nucleotide sequences according to SEQ ID NO:3 which has a donor fluorophore and SEQ ID NO:4, which has an acceptor fluorophore.

Abstract: A new and distinctive variety of a Malus domestica apple tree, named ‘RS103-110’ that is distinguished by its medium vigor tree, fruit that matures immediately after ‘Royal Gala’, fruit that is small to medium in size with an obloid to globose shape and a foreground stripe that is dark red in color over a background that is yellow-green in color, fruit stem (pedicel) that can be very short and thick at the point of attachment to the spur, and resistance to apple scab, is disclosed.
