Tracking Reservoirs of Antimicrobial Resistance Genes in a Complex Microbial Community Using Metagenomic Hi-C: The Case of Bovine Digital Dermatitis. [PDF]

Antibiotics (Basel), 2021
Bovine digital dermatitis (DD) is a contagious infectious cause of lameness in cattle with unknown definitive etiologies. Many of the bacterial species detected in metagenomic analyses of DD lesions are difficult to culture, and their antimicrobial ...

Profiling bacterial communities in feedlot cattle affected with bovine foot rot and bovine digital dermatitis lesions using 16S rRNA gene sequencing and quantitative real-time PCR. [PDF]

BMC Microbiol
The primary infectious foot diseases in cattle, bovine foot rot (BFR) and bovine digital dermatitis (BDD), commonly associated with Fusobacterium necrophorum and Treponema spp., respectively, are considered polybacterial in etiology with several ...

Detection of <i>Treponema</i> species associated with bovine digital dermatitis in cattle using novel real-time PCR assays. [PDF]

J Vet Diagn Invest
Three Treponema sp.-T. medium, T. pedis, and T. phagedenis-are associated with bovine digital dermatitis (BDD). This painful infectious disease has been reported worldwide, causing economic and animal welfare problems. Although detection by real-time PCR

Adherence and metal-ion acquisition gene expression increases during infection with Treponema phagedenis strains from bovine digital dermatitis. [PDF]

Infect Immun
Digital dermatitis (DD) is an ulcerative foot lesion on the heel bulbs of dairy cattle. DD is a polymicrobial disease with no precise etiology, although Treponema spirochetes are found disproportionally abundant in diseased tissue.

Surveying bovine digital dermatitis and non-healing bovine foot lesions for the presence of Fusobacterium necrophorum, Porphyromonas endodontalis and Treponema pallidum. [PDF]

Vet Rec, 2020
Background Non-healing bovine foot lesions, including non-healing white line disease, non-healing sole ulcer and toe necrosis, are an increasingly important cause of chronic lameness that are poorly responsive to treatment.

A novel approach to probe host-pathogen interactions of bovine digital dermatitis, a model of a complex polymicrobial infection. [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2016
Background: Polymicrobial infections represent a great challenge for the clarification of disease etiology and the development of comprehensive diagnostic or therapeutic tools, particularly for fastidious and difficult-to-cultivate bacteria. Using bovine

Putative β-Barrel Outer Membrane Proteins of the Bovine Digital Dermatitis-Associated Treponemes: Identification, Functional Characterization, and Immunogenicity. [PDF]

Infect Immun, 2020
Bovine digital dermatitis (BDD), an infectious disease of the bovine foot with a predominant treponemal etiology, is a leading cause of lameness in dairy and beef herds worldwide. BDD is poorly responsive to antimicrobial therapy and exhibits a relapsing

Microbiota Analysis of an Environmental Slurry and Its Potential Role as a Reservoir of Bovine Digital Dermatitis Pathogens. [PDF]

Appl Environ Microbiol, 2017
At present, very little information exists regarding what role the environmental slurry may play as an infection reservoir and/or route of transmission for bovine digital dermatitis (DD), a disease which is a global problem in dairy herds. To investigate
