Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP)

Manifestation and epidemiology of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia in Europe.

The authors describe the clinical profile and epidemiology of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia in Europe. This disease, once considered to have been eradicated several years ago, has now become endemic in southern countries of Europe. The status of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia in Portugal and Italy, and the evolution of the disease during the last ten years, are analysed in detail, in add...

Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia

Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP) is one of the most important infectious diseases of cattle in Africa. Naïve herds can experience losses up to 80%, and many cattle that survive remain chronic carriers. These carriers may suffer from recurrent low-grade fever, loss of condition, and respiratory signs upon exercise, and might introduce the virus into uninfected herds. Although contagious ...

Whole-Genome Sequencing of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides Italian Strain 57/13, the Causative Agent of Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia

Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides is generally considered one of most pathogenic Mycoplasma species, and it is the etiological agent of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP). Here, we present the annotated genome sequence of M. mycoides subsp. mycoides Italian strain 57/13, isolated in 1992 during CBPP outbreaks in Italy.
