Isolation of Mycobacterium avium and other nontuberculous mycobacteria in chickens and captive birds in peninsular Malaysia [PDF]
Background Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) causes a chronic infectious in the birds known as avian mycobacteriosis. Almost all species of the birds are susceptible to MAC which consists of two closely related species of mycobacteria, that is, M.

First whole-genome sequence of Mycobacterium avium subsp. silvaticum isolated from a diseased Egyptian goose (Alopochen aegyptiaca) [PDF]
Background Among the non-tuberculous mycobacteria, Mycobacterium (M.) avium are important pathogens for humans and/or animals. Currently, there are four M. avium subspecies: subsp. hominissuis (Mah), subsp. paratuberculosis (Map), subsp. avium (Maa), and
