Complete genome sequences of four mammalian isolates of Chlamydophila psittaci. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Chlamydia psittaci is an obligate intracellular zoonotic pathogen primarily of birds, but it is also known to infect a variety of mammalian species. Here we report the genomes of four strains isolated from sheep (C19/98), pigs (01DC11), cattle (02DC15), and humans (08DC60).

Feral pigeons as reservoirs for hazardous Chlamydophila psittaci strains with zoonotic potential
Chlamydophila psittaci is found in pigeons worldwide. The abundance of feral pigeons living in close contact with humans and livestock are considered a significant risk factor for human and farm animal infections.
