Evidence for the Cytoplasmic Localization of the L-α-Glycerophosphate Oxidase in Members of the “Mycoplasma mycoides Cluster”

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Members of the “Mycoplasma mycoides cluster” are important animal pathogens causing diseases including contagious bovine pleuropneumonia and contagious caprine pleuropneumonia, which are of utmost importance in Africa or Asia.

A survey of Mycoplasma agalactiae in dairy sheep farms in Spain [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Contagious Agalactia (CA) is one of the major animal health problems in small ruminants because of its economic significance. Currently, four Mycoplasma spp. have been associated with this syndrome: M. agalactiae, M. mycoides subsp. capri, M.

Mapping Small Ruminant Trade Networks in Ethiopia’s Somali Region and Borena Zone: Implications for the Spread of Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Livestock trade significantly contributes to the spread of transboundary animal diseases (TADs), like Peste des Petits Ruminants virus (PPRV), due to the long‐distance movement of infected animals. This study investigates the structure and dynamics of the small ruminant trade network across 64 markets and 20 destinations, focusing on market ...

Capsular Polysaccharide Production in Bacteria of the Mycoplasma Genus: A Huge Diversity of Pathways and Synthases for So‐Called Minimal Bacteria

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 122, Issue 6, Page 866-878, December 2024.
Synthases are membrane‐embedded glycosyltransferases enabling the polymerization and secretion of homopolysaccharides that can form a capsule around mycoplasma cells. The nature of the capsular polymer is tightly linked to different structural features of the synthase.

Challenges of Controlling Foot‐and‐Mouth Disease in Pastoral Settings in Africa

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Foot‐and‐mouth disease (FMD) is a highly devastating viral disease affecting all cloven‐hoofed animals. The disease threatens food security and livelihoods across different parts of the world. FMD is endemic in Africa; where the continuous circulation of the disease impacts the livelihoods of pastoral communities by reducing the quality and quantity of

Knowledge, Attitudes, Practices on Antimicrobial Use in Animals Among Livestock Sector Stakeholders in Kenya

Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Background: Antimicrobials are used on farms to manage livestock diseases. In many developing countries, antimicrobial use (AMU) is insufficiently controlled, and antimicrobials are prone to misuse and abuse, thereby fostering the emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). AMR remains a challenge in Kenya, and the extent remains unknown.
