Crole, Martina Rachel; Soley, John Thomson (Wiley, 2017-09)A specialized region of the bill tip characterized by a complex arrangement of mechanoreceptors and referred to as a bill tip organ, has been identified in numerous avians. A bill tip organ was initially inferred in kiwi ...

Crole, Martina Rachel; Soley, John Thomson (Wiley, 2014-07)Herbst corpuscles are widely distributed throughout the oropharynx of the ostrich and emu in contrast to the general situation in birds. Knowledge of the comparative distribution of Herbst corpuscles in the oropharynx of ...

Crole, Martina Rachel; Soley, John Thomson (Springer, 2015-09)This study, facilitated by the use of immunohistochemistry, indicated the presence of taste buds in Dromaius novaehollandiae but not in Struthio camelus. Seen at the light microscope level, the taste buds consisted of ...

Crole, Martina Rachel; Soley, John Thomson (Wiley-Blackwell, 2011-07)The glandular regions of the upper digestive tract in the emu were non-pigmented (except for the tongue in most specimens) and invested by a non-keratinised stratified squamous epithelium. The glands found in these ...

Crole, Martina Rachel; Soley, John Thomson (Springer, 2012-09)The tongue body of Rhea americana is triangular and partially pigmented with each caudo-lateral margin displaying a round, sub-divided lingual papilla. The tongue root is a smooth, non-pigmented tract of mucosa. The ...

Soley, John Thomson; Tivane, Catarina; Crole, Martina Rachel (Wiley, 2015-10)The ostrich hyobranchial apparatus consists of the centrally positioned paraglossalia and basiurohyale and paired caudo-lateral elements (horns), each consisting of the ceratobranchiale and epibranchiale. The paraglossalia ...

Crole, Martina Rachel; Soley, John Thomson; Clift, Sarah Jane (OpenJournals Publishing, 2013-10-30)Avian mycobacteriosis (AM) is a zoonotic disease caused by Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), which can spread from avians to other farmed animals such as cattle and pigs as well as to humans. This study is the first ...

Crole, Martina Rachel; Du Plessis, Lizette; Soley, John Thomson (Wiley, 2015-05)The distribution of Herbst corpuscles in the oropharynx of the ostrich and emu has recently been documented. However, although the morphology of these mechanoreceptors is well known in neognathous birds, little structural ...

Crole, Martina Rachel; Soley, John Thomson (Agricultural Research Council, ARC-OVI and the University of Pretoria, 2009-09)Despite numerous papers addressing the topic, the gross morphology of the ratite tongue and more specifically that of the emu, has been superficially or poorly described. This paper presents the first definitive macroscopic ...
-
Crole, Martina Rachel; Soley, John Thomson (Agricultural Research Council, ARC-OVI and the University of Pretoria, 2009)Although a number of brief, fragmented descriptions have been provided on the gross morphology of the ratite tongue, very few studies have documented the histological structure of this organ. This paper presents the first ...
