  • Title: Mycobacterium bovis infection in Holstein Friesian cattle, Iran.
    Author: Tadayon K, Mosavari N, Sadeghi F, Forbes KJ.
    Journal: Emerg Infect Dis; 2008 Dec; 14(12):1919-21. PubMed ID: 19046521.
    Abstract:
    To identify strains of Mycobacterium bovis circulating in Iran, we used region of difference, spoligotypes, and variable number tandem repeats to genotype 132 M. bovis isolates from Holstein Friesian cattle. Despite wide geographic origins, the strains were genetically homogeneous. Increased distribution of cattle herds and inadequate control measures may have contributed to strain dispersion.
