If You're Not Confused, You're Not Paying Attention: Ochrobactrum Is Not Brucella

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2023
Bacteria of the genus Brucella are facultative intracellular parasites that cause brucellosis, a severe animal and human disease. Recently, a group of taxonomists merged the brucellae with the primarily free-living, phylogenetically related Ochrobactrum ...

The mechanism of chronic intracellular infection with Brucella spp.

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Globally, brucellosis is a widespread zoonotic disease. It is prevalent in more than 170 countries and regions. It mostly damages an animal’s reproductive system and causes extreme economic losses to the animal husbandry industry.

The Retrospective on Atypical Brucella Species Leads to Novel Definitions

Microorganisms, 2022
The genus Brucella currently comprises twelve species of facultative intracellular bacteria with variable zoonotic potential. Six of them have been considered as classical, causing brucellosis in terrestrial mammalian hosts, with two species originated ...

Uncovering the Hidden Credentials of Brucella Virulence

Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2021
Bacteria in the genus Brucella are important human and veterinary pathogens. The abortion and infertility they cause in food animals produce economic hardships in areas where the disease has not been controlled, and human brucellosis is one of the world ...
