Phylogenetic relationships of the porcine mycoplasmas Mycoplasma hyosynoviae and Mycoplasma hyopharyngis.

چکیده
The phylogenetic positions of the porcine mycoplasmas Mycoplasma hyosynoviae and Mycoplasma hyopharyngis were determined by using PCR-amplified 16S rRNA gene sequences. M. hyosynoviae is a member of the Mycoplasma hominis group, while M. hyopharyngis belongs to the Mycoplasma fermentans group of mollicutes. Neither species is closely related to previously characterized porcine mycoplasmas belonging to the Mycoplasma hyorhinis group.

Mycoplasma hyopharyngis Isolation From Swine
Mycoplasma hyopharyngis is a seldom isolated porcine species. It was found, adequately described, and named by Erickson et al. (1986). In that study 7 strains were isolated from the upper respiratory tract of pigs in 2 different herds, one of which was an institutional herd. All the strains fulfilled the usual criteria put up for characterization of mycoplasmas. They could degrade the amino aci...
متن کاملFlat gel polyacrylamide electrophoresis of porcine mycoplasmas.
The flat gel acrylamide electrophoresis technique was standardized and applied to the comparison of four species of porcine mycoplasmas. Clear differences were observed between these species, and differences were seen among the strains of Mycoplasma hyosynoviae. The clarity of the patterns and the number of bands developed was influenced by the amount of protein in the extract and the age of th...
متن کاملHeterogeneity among strains of Mycoplasma granularum and identification of Mycoplasma hyosynoviae, sp. n.
Twelve filtrable, pleomorphic organisms isolated from swine joints and respiratory tracts had typical colonial and microscopic characteristics of mycoplasmas. They resisted penicillin and did not revert to cell wall-producing bacterial forms in media devoid of bacterial inhibitors. The morphological and growth characteristics of these mycoplasmas were similar to those described previously for M...
متن کاملDiagnostic and field investigations in Mycoplasma hyosynoviae and Mycoplasma hyorhinis
Swine mycoplasmas are acknowledged for their potential to contribute to several swine disease complexes. In addition, mycoplasma-associated arthritis has recently been recognized as a re-emergent issue in the swine industry. Reports from Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratories suggest an increasing incidence of cases occurring in the major regions of swine production in the U.S. Although previous st...
متن کاملAmplified-fragment length polymorphism fingerprinting of Mycoplasma species.
Amplified-fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) is a whole-genome fingerprinting method based on selective amplification of restriction fragments. The potential of the method for the characterization of mycoplasmas was investigated in a total of 50 strains of human and animal origin, including Mycoplasma genitalium (n = 11), Mycoplasma pneumoniae (n = 5), Mycoplasma hominis (n = 5), Mycoplasma hy...
