PROCEEDINGS of the SIXTY-FIFTH WESTERN POULTRY DISEASE CONFERENCE April 24-27, 2016 Vancouver, BC, Canada PROCEEDINGS OF THE SIXTY-FIFTH WESTERN POULTRY DISEASE CONFERENCE April 24-27, 2016 Vancouver, BC, Canada PROCEEDINGS OF THE SIXTY-FIFTH WESTERN POULTRY DISEASE CONFERENCE April 24-27, 2016 Vancouver, BC, Canada ©2016 Western Poultry Disease Conference 65TH WESTERN POULTRY DISEASE CONFERENCE IN MEMORIUM DUANE E. OLSEN Duane E. Olsen, of Lacey, Washington, passed away on Oct. 24, 2014. Duane was born Jan. 7, 1941 to Donald W. (Pete) and Eleanor Jean Olsen at Chehalis, Washington. He grew up on the family’s dairy farm on Newaukum Hill. Duane attended Napavine Schools and graduated in 1959. He attended and graduated from Western Washington (college) University, Bellingham, Washington and Washington State University's College of Veterinary Medicine where he earned his doctorate degree. Duane was dedicated to his work. His professional career included veterinarian roles with the WSU extension in Puyallup, Fors Farms, Foster Farms, and finally as general manager of Briarwood Farms in Rochester. He consulted throughout the U.S. and Canada. He also contributed frequently in governmental matters concerning the poultry industry, including serving on President Reagan's task force for avian influenza. Duane was highly regarded in his field. He loved to teach and on occasion argue. Dr. Olsen was a walking encyclopedia relative to information about poultry – truly a gentleman and a scholar. He will be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing and working with him. iii 65TH WESTERN POULTRY DISEASE CONFERENCE IN MEMORIUM Donald D. Bell Don Bell was born on Dec. 17, 1933 in Santa Ana California, to Kenneth and Dorothy Bell and died on October 17, 2014. His childhood was spent in several California cities and early on, he showed a real talent for farming. As a teenager, he worked on the family dairy farm and raised cattle for 4H projects and at the age of 18, received the first of many statewide achievement awards for agriculture. He graduated from Turlock Joint Union High in 1951 and soon entered the University of California – Davis. His intent was to pursue dairy production, but, by the time of his graduation in 1955, he had discovered a passion for poultry production, to which, he devoted the rest of his life. While at UC Davis, he also found the love of his life, Lucy Justice, meeting her at a Cal Aggie Christian gathering. They were married on Sept 2, 1956, soon after his graduation from Davis with a degree in Animal Science. He later went on to receive a Master’s Degree in Avian Science from Colorado State University. After a stint in the U.S. Army, Don began his career with the University of California as a Poultry Farm Advisor with the Extension Service. He began in Orange Co. and later moved to Riverside and served there for his remaining 42 year career. Along the way, he was appointed as Statewide Poultry Specialist and continued his service to the industry, even long after his retirement in 2000. As an Emeritus specialist, he continued to advise, teach, and encourage a new generation of producers through his interactions and his research. During his career, his prolific writing and research projects provided much of the foundation for today’s modern egg industry. In addition to two major textbooks, it is difficult to find any specific topic in poultry that his work did not touch upon at some point. As one of the leading researchers in the field, he was in demand as a keynote speaker and spoke at events around the world. He also consulted with key people in the worldwide industry and government officials, on improving production and welfare of animals. All who heard him speak knew of his commitment to this subject and his helpful nature made lasting friendships in the farthest corners of the world. The hundreds of awards and recognitions for his knowledge and service is now part of his legacy. The phrase “What does Don Bell have to say about it?” has become part of the language of a generation of producers and researchers. One of his last projects was to establish an Electronic Resource Library for the Egg Industry. But, he was much more than just a researcher and teacher – he had a deep love of photography, art, food, history, and travel. He was also very active in the life of his church, serving as Deacon and Elder for the Riverside Calvary Presbyterian Church. His home was filled with mementos from his life and his travels. Many will remember him just humming a tune or whistling for the sheer pleasure of it as he worked. iv th 65 WPDC CONTRIBUTORS LIST (As of April 1, 2016) SUPER SPONSORS CEVA Animal Health Libourne, France BENEFACTORS American Association of Avian Pathologists Jacksonville, FL PATRONS Algal Scientific Corporation Huvepharma, Inc.

West Milling Company Modesto, CA vii SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The 65th Western Poultry Disease Conference (WPDC) is honored to acknowledge the many contributions and support to the Conference. The financial contributions provide support for outstanding presentations and to help pay for some of the costs of the Conference, thus helping us to maintain a relatively low registration fee for an international conference. More than 30 organizations, companies and individuals have once again given substantial financial support. Many companies and organizations, including some that also contribute financially, send speakers at no expense to the Conference. We thank all these people, and acknowledge their support and contribution. Once again, the WPDC is forever grateful to our distinguished contributors and supports of the conference who are vital in making the conference a success. All our contributors and supporters are listed on the following pages. We greatly appreciate their generosity and sincerely thank them and their representatives for supporting this year’s meeting of WPDC. Many have provided special services that contribute to the continued success of this conference. For this year’s meeting, the WPDC has contracted Conference and Events Services, of the University of California, Davis, for providing budgetary and registration support for the conference. We would like to thank Ms. Teresa Brown for her exceptional work with our conference. We thank Dr. David Frame for editing and producing another outstanding proceedings of this meeting. Dr. Frame is indebted to Mr. Dana Frame for his meticulous proofreading and formatting the proceedings for publication. We express our gratitude to all authors who submitted manuscripts, and are especially appreciative of those who submitted their manuscripts on time. Once again, we acknowledge Bruce Patrick (Graphic Communications, Brigham Young University) for the front page cover design of these electronic proceedings. SPECIAL 30th ANNIVERSARY NOTE This year we had 109 printed manuscripts, which included invited speakers, oral, and poster presentations. I thank all authors for their timely submission of papers and for their patience in resolving any formatting challenges that may have occurred. Reflecting back on the evolution of the WPDC Proceedings, it is indeed obvious much progress has been made over the years. I still have vivid memories of visiting Rosy at his home with WPDC paraphernalia scattered in seemingly endless and random (although well-organized for Rosy) piles all over his dining room and study. I’m sure none of us can fully appreciate the amount of personal expenses incurred and hours spent in mimeographing, typing, proof-reading, copying, and mailing those early proceedings. A tremendous leap forward was made in 1986 by Dr. Marcus Jensen in making the printed proceedings available for distribution at the time of the actual conference. This was accomplished using a pioneering technique of collecting manuscripts through the infant World Wide Web. The added tasks of incorporating translated papers from ANECA and shipping the finished bound copies to Mexico made this accomplishment even more remarkable. Also during Dr. Jensen’s tenure, the formatting and proof-reading of the Proceedings were generally formalized. Dr. Craig Riddell aptly continued these services for the next four years after the retirement of Dr. Jensen. A 50th year anniversary CD was produced in 2001 containing all previous WPDC proceedings. In the wake of this accomplishment, a yearly CD was produced from 2002 through 2009 in addition to the traditional hard copy. Beginning in 2010 the CD was substituted with a removable flash drive. The last hard copy of the WPDC Proceedings was printed in 2013.

  • Identification of Gene Expression Elements in Histomonas Meleagridis Using Splinkerette Pcr, a Variation of Ligated Adaptor Pcr
    IDENTIFICATION OF GENE EXPRESSION ELEMENTS IN HISTOMONAS MELEAGRIDIS USING SPLINKERETTE PCR, A VARIATION OF LIGATED ADAPTOR PCR by ELIZABETH CAROLYN LYNN (Under the Direction of Robert B. Beckstead) ABSTRACT Histomonas meleagridis is the causative agent of blackhead disease in gallinaceous birds, but little genetic information exists for this organism. The complete genome for this protozoan is unsequenced. The only available sequence information is for coding portions of genes. No information is available for expression elements. In this study, we demonstrate that splinkerette PCR procedure, a variation of ligated adaptor PCR, can be used to identify regions upstream and downstream of known coding sequences. Using this technique, we isolated the upstream sequence of 2 beta-tubulin genes. With sequence analysis of their upstream regions, we identified their upstream intergenic regions and 2 different open reading frames. The intergenic region contained putative polyadenylation and cleavage signals and initiator elements. Our research demonstrates that the use of splinkerette PCR is a valuable tool to identify regions of unknown DNA that are 5’ or 3’ to known sequences in parasites whose genomes remain unsequenced. The identification of the expression elements of H. meleagridis will provide tools for future studies on its gene expression.

  • Molecular Characterization of Histomonas Meleagridis in Clinical
    Original Article Molecular characterization of Histomonas meleagridis in clinical samples of chickens from Eastern China Jinjun Xu1,2 Chanbao Qu1,2 Pin Guo1,2 Zhennan Zhuo1,2 Dandan Liu1,2 Jianping Tao1,2* Abstract Histomonas meleagridis (H. meleagridis) is a protozoan parasite that may cause histomoniasis, a disease of special importance to the poultry industry and public health. The molecular characterization of H. meleagridis in China has not been established. The 5.8S and flanking ITS regions were amplified by polymerase chain reaction from 15 liver samples of chickens which were preliminarily diagnosed with H. meleagridis infection by observing clinical symptoms and macroscopic changes in the organs in Eastern China between 2012 and 2013. The obtained sequences were aligned and compared with other known sequences of H. meleagridis and related protozoan species based on ITS1-5.8S rRNA-ITS2 or 5.8S rRNA region alone. Out of the 15 obtained sequences, 8 sequences were identified as H. meleagridis and were grouped into five clades, suggesting the possibility of multiple genotypes within the samples. Among the remaining 7 sequences, 4 sequences were more related to Trichomonas and 3 sequences were more related to Tetratrichomonas, which suggests the possibility of misdiagnosis or coinfection with other protozoans. Therefore, there is obvious genetic diversity of H. meleagridis based on the 5.8S and flanking ITS regions, which suggests the presence of different genotypes in chickens from Eastern China. Keywords: Histomonas meleagridis, internal transcribed spacer sequence, 5.8S rRNA, homology, phylogenetic relationship 1Jiangsu Co-innovation Center for Prevention and Control of Important Animal Infectious Diseases and Zoonoses, Jiangsu Province 225009, P.R.

Previous work has divided eukaryotic diversity into a small number of high-level ‘supergroups’, many of which receive strong support in phylogenomic analyses. However, the abundance of data in phylogenomic analyses can lead to highly supported but incorrect relationships due to systematic phylogenetic error. Further, the paucity of major eukaryotic lineages (19 or fewer) included in these genomic studies may exaggerate systematic error and reduces power to evaluate hypotheses.

  • On the Genus Pseudolynchia Bequaert
    Pacific Insects Monograph 10: 125-138 November 30, 1966 ON THE GENUS PSEUDOLYNCHIA BEQUAERT (Diptera : Hippoboscidae) * By T. C. Maa2 Abstract: Pseudolynchia serratipes from New Guinea is described as new. Known species are redescribed together with suggestion of several new characters including sensoria on hind tibiae and sensilla on hind tarsi. A new key to species and remarks on the inter- and intrageneric relationships are appended. Since erected in 1926, Pseudolynchia has been the subject of several regional and world revisions (Bequaert 1926 b, 1935 a, 1938 d, 1955; Maa 1963; Theodor & Oldroyd 1964). Comprehensive bibliographies and digest of literature on the biology of the species have also been provided by Bequaert (1953 a, 1953 b, 1955). The following notes include chiefly a description of an unusual new species, and redescriptions of known ones. Generic Characters. To the detailed descriptions by Bequaert (1955) and Theodor et al (1964), the following points may be added: Hind tibia with a group of large sensoria on posterior surface near apex. Segments 2 to 4 of hind tarsus slightly to strongly asymmetrical, each with 2 longitudinal series of sensilla. Parameres ($) un­ usually strongly articulated with aedeagal apodeme and gonocoxal base, their common basal margin deeply concave; aedeagal apodeme in sexually matured 8 quite long and narrow in lateral view. Male differing from 9 in having wing shorter and broader in proportion, fore and mid tarsi ventrally with more apical spines, segment 1 of mid tarsus ventrally with a small patch of short, stout, and either sharp or peg-like spines (absent in 9), tergite 5 almost always represented by a pair of small transverse plates (not definable in 9).

  • Lists of Names of Prokaryotic Candidatus Taxa
    NOTIFICATION LIST: CANDIDATUS LIST NO. 1 Oren et al., Int. J. Syst. Evol. Microbiol. DOI 10.1099/ijsem.0.003789 Lists of names of prokaryotic Candidatus taxa Aharon Oren1,*, George M. Garrity2,3, Charles T. Parker3, Maria Chuvochina4 and Martha E. Trujillo5 Abstract We here present annotated lists of names of Candidatus taxa of prokaryotes with ranks between subspecies and class, pro- posed between the mid- 1990s, when the provisional status of Candidatus taxa was first established, and the end of 2018. Where necessary, corrected names are proposed that comply with the current provisions of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes and its Orthography appendix. These lists, as well as updated lists of newly published names of Candidatus taxa with additions and corrections to the current lists to be published periodically in the International Journal of Systematic and Evo- lutionary Microbiology, may serve as the basis for the valid publication of the Candidatus names if and when the current propos- als to expand the type material for naming of prokaryotes to also include gene sequences of yet-uncultivated taxa is accepted by the International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes. Introduction of the category called Candidatus was first pro- morphology, basis of assignment as Candidatus, habitat, posed by Murray and Schleifer in 1994 [1]. The provisional metabolism and more. However, no such lists have yet been status Candidatus was intended for putative taxa of any rank published in the journal. that could not be described in sufficient details to warrant Currently, the nomenclature of Candidatus taxa is not covered establishment of a novel taxon, usually because of the absence by the rules of the Prokaryotic Code.
