Development of multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis for rapid genotyping of Ehrlichia ruminantium and its application to infected Amblyomma variegatum collected in heartwater endemic areas in Uganda

Nakao, Ryo; Morrison, Liam J.; Zhou, Lijia; Magona, Joseph W.; Jongejan, Frans; Sugimoto, Chihiro (Cambridge University Press, 2011-10-05)

The rickettsial bacterium Ehrlichia ruminantium is the causative agent of heartwater, a serious tick-borne disease in ruminants. The genetic diversity of organisms in the field will have implications for cross-protective ...
Multi-locus sequence typing of Ehrlichia ruminantium strains from geographically diverse origins and collected in Amblyomma variegatum from Uganda

Nakao, Ryo; Magona, Joseph W.; Zhou, Lijia; Jongejan, Frans; Sugimoto, Chihiro (BioMed Central, 2011-07-15)

BACKGROUND: The rickettsial bacterium Ehrlichia ruminantium is the causative agent of heartwater in ruminants. A better understanding of the population genetics of its different strains is, however, needed for the development ...
