Determination of mosquitoes species diversity and molecular detection of West Nile virus in wild bird habitats in Perak and Selangor, Malaysia by Jafar Ali, Natasha

“…Meanwhile, WNV antibodies and/or RNA have been demonstrated in wild birds, human, wildlife such as macaques and bats; and farm animals such as swine and horse from 2003 until now. Presence and transmission of WNV in these species certainly involved mosquito vectors, yet the study on the current status of WNV in mosquitoes is lacking, which further signifies the need of this study. …”

The inference-boundary model reinterpreting theme and rheme by Leong, Ping Alvin

“…The Hallidayan notions of theme and rheme pose an interesting challenge to linguists in their attempts to pin them down more specifically. This paper argues that since the thematic structure of the clause organises it as a message, a useful starting point in theme–rheme research is an understanding of how clausal messages are typically processed by language users. …”
