Molecular detection and characterization of Dichelobacter nodosus in ovine footrot in India
Molecular and Cellular Probes, 2004 Dichelobacter nodosus was detected in three clinical cases of ovine footrot in Kashmir, India. The detection was done by PCR in three clinical specimens directly, without isolating the organism, using species-specific 16S rDNA primers. Positive results were indicated by amplification of a 783 bp product.
