Overview of the epidemic characteristics of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection around COVID pandemic

open access: yesiLABMED, Volume 1, Issue 3, Page 148-157, December 2023., 2023
Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M. pneumoniae) is a cell wall‐less respiratory pathogen causing community‐acquired pneumonia and extrapulmonary manifestations. It is transmitted through close contact and shows periodic regional outbreaks. Mp has two major clonal lineages (P1‐1 and P1‐2) and herd immunity switches are thought to be responsible for the subtype ...

High resolution typing of Chlamydophila psittaci by multilocus VNTR analysis (MLVA) [PDF]

open access: yesInfection, Genetics and Evolution, 2008
A multilocus VNTR analysis (MLVA) system for detection of tandem repeats across the whole genome of Chlamydophila psittaci has been developed. Twenty selected genetic loci were initially tested on 9 avian reference strains including representatives of all major serotypes (A to F).
