The vaginal microbiome of pregnant women is less rich and diverse, with lower prevalence of Mollicutes, compared to non-pregnant women

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The vaginal microbiome plays an important role in maternal and neonatal health. Imbalances in this microbiota (dysbiosis) during pregnancy are associated with negative reproductive outcomes, such as pregnancy loss and preterm birth, but the underlying ...

Mycoplasma bovis and other Mollicutes in replacement dairy heifers from Mycoplasma bovis-infected and uninfected herds: A 2-year longitudinal study.

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2020
Replacement dairy heifers exposed to Mycoplasma bovis as calves may be at risk of future clinical disease and pathogen transmission, both within and between herds; however, little information is available about these risks.

Differential Inhibition of Mollicute Growth: an Approach to Development of Selective Media for Specific Mollicutes [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2002
ABSTRACT The energy-generating pathways of Mycoplasma spp. are diverse. Thus, it was predicted that the ability of inhibitors of these pathways to block growth would vary among species. This prediction was tested with 14 Mycoplasma species and potential inhibitors.

Insertion sequences as variability generators in the Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and M. synoviae genomes

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2007
We have analyzed the sequenced genomes of three strains of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and one strain of M. synoviae, and have found three and two different transposable element families, respectively in each species. In M.

Assessment of cow and farm level risk factors associated with Ureaplasma diversum in pasture-based dairy systems - A field study

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2017
Potential risk factors for Ureaplasma diversum in the vaginal mucus of 1,238 dairy cows were included in a multivariate logistic regression model, based on the cow level (i.e., granular vulvovaginitis [+GVV], yearly milk production [4500 kg or more ...

The Photosensitizing Activity of Haematoporphyrin on Mollicutes [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology, 1985
The photosensitizing activity of haematoporphyrin (HP) on Mycoplasma hominis and Acholeplasma laidlawii was studied as a function of the phase of growth and the amount of sterols in the cell membrane. Less HP was bound to cells when the membrane had a high sterol content.

Characterization of an Immunoglobulin Binding Protein (IbpM) From Mycoplasma pneumoniae

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Bacteria evolved many ways to invade, colonize and survive in the host tissue. Such complex infection strategies of other bacteria are not present in the cell-wall less Mycoplasmas.

Antimicrobial resistance in mollicutes: known and newly emerging mechanisms.

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2018
This review is devoted to the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in mollicutes (class Bacilli, subclass Mollicutes), the smallest self-replicating bacteria, that can cause diseases in plants, animals and humans, and also contaminate cell cultures and ...

Bacterial community associated with the intestinal tract of Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) farmed in Lake Tai, China. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Chinese mitten crab (CMC, Eriocheir sinensis) is an economically valuable species in South-East Asia that has been widely farmed in China. Characterization of the intestinal bacterial diversity of CMC will provide insights into the aquaculturing of CMCs.
