Comparative genomic and proteomic analyses of two Mycoplasma agalactiae strains: clues to the macro- and micro-events that are shaping mycoplasma diversity [PDF]
Background: While the genomic era is accumulating a tremendous amount of data, the question of how genomics can describe a bacterial species remains to be fully addressed.

Detection of mycoplasma infection in sheep and goats by using PCR technique, with the associated pathological lesions [PDF]
Sheep and goats are important agriculture animals in Egypt. Mycoplasma is the most frequent causes of morbidity, mortality and economic losses associated with sheep and goats. Three mycoplasma species were obtained in this study from sheep and goats at

Suppression-subtractive hybridization as a strategy to identify taxon-specific sequences within the Mycoplasma mycoides Cluster: design and validation of an M. capricolum subsp. capricolum-specific PCR assay [PDF]
The phylogenetically related Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capricolum and M. mycoides subsp. mycoides biotype Large Colony are two small-ruminant pathogens involved in contagious agalactia. Their respective contributions to clinical outbreaks are not well

MYCOPLASMA GALLISEPTICUM AND STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS INFECTION IN OSTRICH (STRUTHIO CAMELUS) IN MATROUH GOVERNORATE [PDF]
Ostrich farms in Matrouh Governorate were investigated for the detection of mycoplasma infection. Mycoplasma could be isolated from ostriches suffered from respiratory troubles, arthritis and conjunctivitis.

Protective Immunity against Infection with Mycoplasma haemofelis [PDF]
Hemoplasmas are potentially zoonotic mycoplasmal pathogens, which are not consistently cleared by antibiotic therapy. Mycoplasma haemofelis is the most pathogenic feline hemoplasma species.
