Molecular Detection and Characterization of Hemotropic Mycoplasma in Assamese Macaques (Macaca assamensis) of Northern Thailand. [PDF]

Vet Med Int
Hemotropic mycoplasmas, also known as hemoplasmas, are parasitic bacteria that infect red blood cells, potentially leading to varying degrees of anemia across numerous mammalian species, including nonhuman primates. The present study aims to investigate the prevalence of hemoplasma infection and identify the species involved among free‐ranging Assamese

First Molecular Detection and Characterization of Hemotropic Mycoplasma Species in Cattle and Goats from Uganda [PDF]

Animals, 2020
Hemoplasmas (hemotropic mycoplasmas) are small pleomorphic bacteria that parasitize the surface of red blood cells of several mammalian species including cattle, goats, and humans, causing infectious anemia.

Ticks and tick-borne bacterial pathogens found on hard ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) on cattle in the Central River region of The Gambia. [PDF]

Med Vet Entomol
First detection of Ehrlichia minasensis, Anaplasma marginale and hemotropic Mycoplasma spp. in cattle in The Gambia. Identification of four tick species, with Hyalomma marginatum being the most common. 15.6% of ticks tested positive for tick‐borne pathogens, including Ehrlichia spp., A. marginale and hemotropic Mycoplasma spp.

Hemotropic pathogens in aborted fetuses of domestic ruminants: transplacental transmission and implications for reproductive loss [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
ObjectiveHemotropic pathogens of the genera Anaplasma, Babesia, Theileria, and hemotropic Mycoplasma are significant infectious agents in domestic ruminants, most commonly associated with vector-borne transmission.

Molecular investigation reveals three hemotropic mycoplasmas in cats and three tick species in China [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
To date, the primary hemoplasmas that infect cats include Mycoplasma haemofelis, ‘Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum’, and ‘Candidatus Mycoplasma turicensis’. In addition, other hemoplasmas Mycoplasma species have also been identified in cats. In central

Occurrence of Hemotropic Mycoplasmas in Commercial Pig Herds in Southeastern Brazil [PDF]

Microorganisms
Mycoplasma suis infects pig red blood cells and is linked to anemia, weakened immunity, and production losses. Infected animals may remain subclinical carriers, contributing to pathogen dissemination.

Use of pan-hemoplasma PCR for screening horses highly exposed to tick bites from southern Brazil [PDF]

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2015
Mycoplasma sp. are hemotropic bacteria of red blood cells and the causative agent of hemoplasmosis. Diagnosis of infection is reached by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and real-time PCR (qPCR) of the 16S RNA gene of this bacteria.
