Sequencing and expression of the aroA gene from Dichelobacter nodosus
The aroA locus of the Gram- pathogen Dichelobacter nodosus, which encodes 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3-phosphate (EPSP) synthase, has been sequenced and expressed in Escherichia coli. The gene is located on a 1.48-kb DraI-HindIII fragment located directly upstream and in opposite transcriptional orientation to the gene encoding the fimbrial structural ...

Understanding the molecular epidemiology of the footrot pathogen Dichelobacter nodosus to support control and eradication programs. [PDF]
The Gram-negative anaerobe Dichelobacter nodosus is the primary etiologic agent of ovine footrot. Few studies of the genetic diversity and epidemiology of D. nodosus have been done, despite the economic cost and welfare implications of the disease.

History of Veterinary Immunology in New Zealand
Knowledge gained from veterinary immunology has played an important role in the control of microbial and parasitic diseases in New Zealand through the development and use of vaccines and diagnostic tests. In this article celebrating the 100th year anniversary of the Journal, I follow the development of important advances in this field over the past 80 ...
