Standardization of loop-mediated isothermal amplification for detection of D. nodosus and F. necrophorum causing footrot in sheep and goats [PDF]
Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2022 The loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) was standardized for rapid detection of Dichelobacter nodosus and Fusobacterium necrophorum. A total of 250 foot swabs were screened from sheep (200) and goats (50) from different districts of Rayalaseema, viz., Chittoor, Nellore, Kadapa, and Anantapur.

Within-Flock Population Dynamics of Dichelobacter nodosus
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2017 Footrot causes 70–90% of lameness in sheep in Great Britain. With approximately 5% of 18 million adult sheep lame at any one time, it costs the UK sheep industry £24–84 million per year.

Prevalence of Dichelobacter nodosus and Ovine Footrot in German Sheep Flocks
Animals, 2021 The bacterium Dichelobacter nodosus (D. nodosus) is the causative agent of ovine footrot. The aim of this field study was to determine the prevalence of D. nodosus in German sheep flocks. The sheep owners participated voluntarily in the study.

Risk factors associated with the infection of sheep with Dichelobacter nodosus
Scientific Reports, 2022 Ovine footrot is a highly contagious foot disease caused by the gram-negative bacterium Dichelobacter nodosus (D. nodosus). In a recent report, we showed a prevalence of 42.9% D. nodosus positive swabs across Germany.

Nucleotide Sequence of the Pilin Gene of Bacteroides nodosus 340 (Serogroup D) and Implications for the Relatedness of Serogroups [PDF]
Microbiology, 1988 The gene encoding pilin of Bacteroides nodosus 340 has been isolated and the nucleotide sequence determined. The gene is present as a single copy within the B. nodosus genome and a protein of Mr 16683 can be predicted from the proposed coding region. A comparison of the predicted amino acid sequence with pilin from other strains of B. nodosus indicated
