Current Funding

Current and recent Research Funding to JCU is shown by funding source and project.

Meat & Livestock Australia - Research Grant

Environmental survivability of Mycobacterium avium subsp. Paratuberculosis (Mptb) on northern grazing properties

Indicative Funding: $477,539 over 3 years
Summary: Bovine Johne's Disease (BJD) has recently been diagnosed for the first time in Queensland beef cattle herds. This project will examine (1) survival times for causative bacteria in tropical environments (2) whether diagnostic tests can detect live (infectious) bacteria, and (3) the extent to which relatives of the bacteria causing BJD occur in the environment and potentially interfere with diagnostic tests. Collectively, out results will assist with management of the BJD outbreak so that it can be contained without imposing unnecessary operational and financial impacts on the beef cattle industry of northern Queensland.
Investigators: Wayne Hein, Robert Hedlefs and Jacqueline Picard in collaboration with D Begg, D Waltisbuhl and J Platell (College of Public Health, Medical & Vet Sciences, The University of Sydney, Department of Agriculture and Fisheries and Forestry)
Keywords: Bovine Johne's Disease; Mycobacterium avium subsp.; Paratuberculosis; Soil; Diagnostic tests; Bacterial survival
