Genomic Evidence for a Globally Distributed, Bimodal Population in the Ovine Footrot Pathogen Dichelobacter nodosus
UNLABELLED Footrot is a contagious, debilitating disease of sheep, causing major economic losses in most sheep-producing countries. The causative agent is the Gram-negative anaerobe Dichelobacter nodosus. Depending on the virulence of the infective bacterial strain, clinical signs vary from a mild interdigital dermatitis (benign footrot) to severe underrunning of the horn of the hoof (virulent ...
متن کاملIsolation and Characterisation of Dichelobacter Nodosus from Footrot Infected Sheep in Malaysia

The present communication records the first determination of the prevalence of footrot in the unexpected situation of the tropical climate of Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu, two states in southern India where the maximum temperature rises to 42 degrees C. In total, 73 outbreaks of footrot in Nellore brown sheep were investigated in 11 districts of Andhra Pradesh and one district of Tamil Nadu du...
متن کاملSurvival of the ovine footrot pathogen Dichelobacter nodosus in different soils.
Dichelobacter nodosus (D. nodosus) is the causative agent of footrot in sheep; one of the most important health and welfare issues of sheep worldwide. For control programmes to be effective, it is essential that the transmission cycle of D. nodosus is understood and bacterial reservoirs in the environment are better defined. This study evaluated the survival of D. nodosus in different soils usi...
متن کاملDichelobacter nodosus and Footrot in Swedish Sheep Increased Knowledge and Improved Laboratory Diagnostics
Ovine footrot is a contagious bacterial disease primarily caused by Dichelobacter nodosus. Footrot affects the feet of sheep and is characterised by two major clinical presentations. The milder form consists of inflammation confined to the interdigital space (interdigital dermatitis or benign footrot) and the more severe form includes underrunning of the hoof horn (underrunning or virulent foot...
