Whole-Genome Analysis of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis IS900Insertions Reveals Strain Type-Specific Modalities [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (Map) is the etiological agent of Johne’s disease in ruminants. The IS900 insertion sequence (IS) has been used widely as an epidemiological marker and target for PCR diagnosis.

Identification and Phylogenetic Analysis of <i>Mycobacterium avium</i> subsp. <i>avium</i> Strain Isolated from Cow. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis, 2023
Mycobacterium avium subsp. avium (MAA) is the main tuberculosis pathogen of poultry and wild birds. MAA can also infect mammals such as pigs, cattle, and horses and can pose a threat to people with low immunity. Here, we describe the first identification of MAA strain HJW isolated from a cow in Jilin Province, China.
