  • Title: Prototheca zopfii genotype 2: the causative agent of bovine protothecal mastitis?
    Author: Möller A, Truyen U, Roesler U.
    Journal: Vet Microbiol; 2007 Mar 10; 120(3-4):370-4. PubMed ID: 17157451.
    Abstract:
    In order to clarify the epidemiology of bovine protothecal mastitis, 30 Prototheca zopfii mastitis isolates were genetically investigated. Based on the 18S rDNA, which allows a differentiation of the former species P. zopfii in two distinct P. zopfii genotypes and Prototheca blaschkeae sp. nov., newly developed genotype-specific PCR-assays as well as RFLP-assays were applied. All mastitis isolates investigated could be assigned to P. zopfii genotype 2 suggesting that this genotype is the aetiological agent of bovine Prototheca mastitis.
