  • Title: Multiple strains of Mycobacterium bovis revealed by molecular typing in a herd of cattle.
    Author: Figueiredo EE, Ramos DF, Medeiros L, Silvestre FG, Lilenbaum W, Silva JT, Paschoalin VM, Dellagostin OA.
    Journal: Vet J; 2012 Jul; 193(1):296-8. PubMed ID: 22178356.
    Abstract:
    Mycobacterium bovis isolates from an outbreak of bovine tuberculosis in a herd of cattle in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, were analysed by spoligotyping and variable-number tandem repeat PCR analysis of the mycobacterial interspersed repetitive unit and exact tandem repeats. Molecular typing revealed a high genetic diversity of strains in the herd. The genetic diversity could be explained by the introduction of infected animals from different sources.
