AbstractTo better understand the epizootiology of caprine paratuberculosis in the North of Portugal, a cross-sectional study was conducted from 2014 to 2015. The seroprevalence and risk factors forMycobacterium aviumsubsp.paratuberculosis(Map) seropositivity were evaluated. Antibodies against Map were determined by a commercial ELISA.

Expression of immunogenic genes of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis
SUMMARY Johne’s disease is an economically important disease caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. Paratuberculosis (MAP). Continuous efforts are being made to identify MAP genes with antigenic and immunogenic capabilities which may serve as vaccine candidates and diagnostic antigens.
