Mycoplasmosis and immunity of fish and reptiles.
Advances in molecular phylogenetics have enabled reconstruction of the most likely chronology of events in prokaryotic evolution and correlation with the paleontologic record with increasing precision. Mycoplasmas probably evolved from clostridial ancestors by genome reduction leading to obligate parasitism of host cells. The vertebrate hosts present at the time of the origin of mycoplasmas abo...
متن کاملMycoplasmosis in Ferrets
We report an outbreak of severe respiratory disease associated with a novel Mycoplasma species in ferrets. During 2009-2012, a respiratory disease characterized by nonproductive coughing affected ≈8,000 ferrets, 6-8 weeks of age, which had been imported from a breeding facility in Canada. Almost 95% became ill, but almost none died. Treatments temporarily decreased all clinical signs except cou...
متن کاملAvian mycoplasmosis (Mycoplasma gallisepticum).
Mycoplasma gallisepticum is the most economically significant mycoplasma pathogen of poultry, and has a world-wide distribution. In common with other mycoplasmas, M. gallisepticum is minute in size with minimal genetic information and with a total lack of a bacterial cell wall. These properties are reflected in a high degree of interdependence between M. gallisepticum and the host animal, and i...
متن کاملAvian Mycoplasmosis: A Review
Avian mycoplasmosis is an important disease of poultry of great economic importance. It is caused by four (4) pathogenic mycoplasma species namely Mycoplasma gallisepticum, Mycoplasma synoviae, Mycoplasma meleagridis and Mycoplasma iowae; although other Mycoplasma species have also been incriminated in the disease. The disease causes cough, rales, ocular and nasal discharges, decreased feed int...
متن کاملAvian Mycoplasmosis Update
Avian mycoplasmas occur in a variety of bird species. The most important mycoplasmas for chickens and turkeys are Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG), M. synoviae (MS), and M. meleagridis. Besides, M. iowe (MI) is an emerging pathogen in turkeys, but of little concern for chickens. Mycoplasmas are bacteria that lack cell wall and belong to the class Mollicutes. Although they have been considered extr...
