The serology and age structure of rabbit populations on sites suggested that some rabbit populations can escape an annualmyxomatosisepizootic.From theCambridge English Corpus
Rabbits were examined for lesions indicative of activemyxomatosis.From theCambridge English Corpus
Rabbits infected with viruses from the third group generally did not show serious clinical signs of disease and only one rabbit died ofmyxomatosis.From theCambridge English Corpus
Rather than eradicating the comparatively few survivors ofmyxomatosis, a rabbit population was allowed to reestablish itself.From theCambridge English Corpus
This has implications for the reliability of surveys that rely on anecdotal reports of the prevalence of clinicalmyxomatosis.From theCambridge English Corpus
The initial spread of the virus to non-inoculated rabbits was first indicated by the appearance ofmyxomatosisin noninoculated rabbits living in the release warrens.From theCambridge English Corpus
In each group there were rabbits that did not show any clinical signs ofmyxomatosis.From theCambridge English Corpus
Eight of ten rabbits in this group developed clinical signs ofmyxomatosisand these developed high levels of antibody by day 18.From theCambridge English Corpus
Rabbits affected bymyxomatosiswere excluded from growth-curve fitting, since this disease causes loss of body condition.From theCambridge English Corpus
Two inoculated rabbits did not show definite clinical signs and despite being housed with seven rabbits with severemyxomatosisdid not develop disease.From theCambridge English Corpus
These trials confirmed that resistance tomyxomatosiswithin wild rabbit populations continues to be substantial and that some rabbits are highly resistant.From theCambridge English Corpus
The numbers indicate the order of discovery of cases ofmyxomatosisfrom which the released virus was obtained.From theCambridge English Corpus
The observation that only a small proportion of rabbits were seen withmyxomatosisdespite the serological evidence that most became infected was interesting.From theCambridge English Corpus
Rabbits on these sites had presumably experienced an epizootic ofmyxomatosisin the previous year.From theCambridge English Corpus
The 57 infected rabbits represented 20.7 % of the 275 rabbits sampled from sites wheremyxomatosiswas found.From theCambridge English Corpus
