Temperature affects the host hematological and cytokine response following experimental ranavirus infection in red-eared sliders (trachemys scripta elegans)

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Jeremy M. Rayl and Matthew C. Allender from the Wildlife Epidemiology Laboratory, College of Veterinary Medicine at University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign have published the research: Temperature affects the host hematological and cytokine response following experimental ranavirus infection in red-eared sliders (Trachemys scripta elegans), in the Journal: PLOS ONE of 10/07/2020
• how: For this study the authors used recently developed assays for chelonians to measure cytokine mRNA transcription in conjunction with the hematologic response following experimental ranavirus exposure.
• future: Future studies should investigate the use of a less potent . . .
