  • Title: Restriction endonuclease analysis of Leptospira interrogans serovar hardjo isolates from cattle.
    Author: Ellis WA, Thiermann AB, Montgomery J, Handsaker A, Winter PJ, Marshall RB.
    Journal: Res Vet Sci; 1988 May; 44(3):375-9. PubMed ID: 2841734.
    Abstract:
    The genomes of 253 strains of Leptospira interrogans serovar hardjo were examined by restriction endonuclease analysis of their DNA. The strains had been isolated from cattle at an abattoir (190), milk of agalactic cows (seven) and from aborted bovine fetuses (56). Two distinct genome types, Hardjoprajitno and Hardjobovis, were detected. The majority (91 per cent) of isolates from abattoir cattle were of the Hardjobovis type while most (76 per cent) of the isolates from clinical/pathological material were similar to Hardjoprajitno.
