Focused on veterinary vaccines, the project's work has made possible a dramatically faster and more effective route to the creation of vaccines to combat some of the most devastating diseases affecting farm livestock.

They documented for the first time the presence of genetic material for the bluetongue virus in female midges that were collected during two consecutive winter seasons.
The bluetongue virus was widespread in both the dairy cows and the midges from August to November.
The researchers concluded that those long-lived female midges had been infected with the bluetongue virus during the previous warm-weather season.
The bluetongue virus may also have other yet-to-be discovered modes of overwintering in temperate regions the researchers say.

An additional genomic study then revealed the genetic cause of the blue colored eggshell#a surprisingly harmless ancient retrovirus in the domestic chicken.
A retrovirus is a virus that unlike most cellular organisms carries its genetic blueprint in the form of ribonucleic acid (RNA.
This makes it possible for genetic material from a retrovirus to become permanently incorporated into the DNA of an infected cell.
In this case the retrovirus effect was to trigger an accumulation of a green-blue bile pigment called biliverdin in the eggshell as the egg develops in the hen.
Unlikely odds#An unexpected find was the unique integration sites for the retrovirus in South american/European
and so the chance of a retrovirus integrating at more or less the same location in two chicken populations is extremely low.#

This week, Canadian officials placed eight farms in southern Ontario under quarantine after an avian influenza outbreak caused the sudden deaths of thousands of birds over several days.
Preliminary testing on the strain was conducted at U of G's Animal health Lab. An outbreak of avian flu also took place in Canada in January and December of 2014.
"We're creating a rapid animal health diagnostic tool that needs less volume of blood, less chemicals and less time.
