Draft Genome Sequence of Mycoplasma wenyonii, a Second Hemotropic Mycoplasma Species Identified in Mexican Bovine Cattle. [PDF]
The hemotropic mycoplasma (hemoplasma) Mycoplasma wenyonii is an animal pathogen that affects bovine cattle health. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of the hemoplasma M. wenyonii strain INIFAP02 found in cattle from Mexico.

Complete genome sequence of Mycoplasma wenyonii strain Massachusetts. [PDF]
ABSTRACTMycoplasma wenyoniiis a hemotrophic mycoplasma that causes acute and chronic infections in cattle. Here, we announce the first complete genome sequence of this organism. The genome is a single circular chromosome with 650,228 bp and G+C% of 33.9. Analyses ofM. wenyoniigenome will provide insights into its biology.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Blood Cytology and Conventional PCR Using Universal Primers for Detecting Haemoplasma Infection in Cats and Pigs of Thailand. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Haemoplasma (haemotropic Mycoplasma sp.) is an aetiological agent of infectious anaemia in several mammals, including cats and pigs. Blood cytology lacks sensitivity for detecting this infection, and information regarding its accuracy in Thailand is lacking. Thus, PCR has emerged as the test of choice.

Apparent prevalence of transplacental transmission of hemotropic mycoplasmas in Holstein dairy calves [PDF]
Hemotropic mycoplasmas are unculturable bacteria that infect the surface of red blood cells of several mammalian species including cattle. The importance of hemoplasmas in cattle remains unclear and limited information is available about biological ...

Diversity of Ticks in the Caribbean Region and Detection of Their Pathogens Using BioMark Technology. [PDF]
Introduction Ticks and the pathogens they transmit are widespread in Caribbean animal populations. There is; however, limited information on the diversity of ticks and tick‐borne pathogens (TTBPs) in the region. This study aims to identify TTBPs across multiple Caribbean countries using a high‐throughput real‐time microfluidic PCR system.

Preliminary report of Mycoplasma Wenoynii and Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos infection in Korean native cattle [PDF]
Background Hemotropic mycoplasmas or hemoplasmas are bacteria that attach to the erythrocyte surface and cause bovine hemoplasmosis. Two species, Mycoplasma wenyonii and Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos, have been identified and shown to be distributed ...

First molecular evidence of bovine hemoplasmas in houseflies (Musca domestica) [PDF]
Background Hemoplasma infections in cattle are caused by Mycoplasma wenyonii and Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos and induce asymptomatic or chronic infections but occasionally lead to life-threatening hemolytic anemia.
