Taylorella equigenitalis in Icelandic intact males compared with other horse breeds using natural cover

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 57, Issue 2, Page 441-448, March 2025.
Abstract Background Contagious equine metritis (CEM) is caused by Taylorella equigenitalis. It is a venereal disease that is detected in some breeds more than others and can cause temporary infertility with substantial costs for regular testing, sanitation and retesting. There was a perceived increase in T.

18S rRNA Metagenomic Analysis of Nodular Gill Disease in Swiss Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 48, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Nodular gill disease (NGD) is a serious proliferative gill condition that affects farmed salmonids, particularly in Europe. While the cause of NGD remains unknown (and maybe multifactorial), various amoebae are often isolated from the gills of affected fish and can in some cases be seen associated with lesions by histopathology.
