High resolution parallel sequencing reveals multi-strain Campylobacter in broiler chicken flocks testing 'negative' by conventional culture methods: implications for control of Campylobacter infection.

This study uses high-resolution sequencing to detect Campylobacter DNA in broiler chicken flocks, revealing its presence even when conventional methods fail, and highlights the diversity of strains in negative samples.

Alpha globin variation in the long-tailed macaque suggests malaria selection

The paper examines alpha globin variation in long-tailed macaques and finds it correlates with malaria selection, suggesting similar adaptive processes to humans.

Deep sequencing reveals Campylobacter in commercial meat chickens less than 8 days old.

The paper uses molecular methods to detect Campylobacter in young chickens, finding that most carry the bacteria before traditional culture methods can detect it.
