TL;DR: Cl clone and sequence the approximate full-length 16S rDNA from additional strains of T. equigenitalis isolated in Japan, Australia and France and compare these sequences to the existing published sequences and find high sequence similarity was observed throughout.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cloning and sequencing of 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA internal spacer region (ISR) from urease-positive thermophilic Campylobacter (UPTC).
TL;DR: To clone and sequence the 16S rDNA and 16S‐23S r DNA internal spacer region (ISR) from urease‐positive thermophilic Campylobacter (UPTC).
Journal ArticleDOI
Nucleotide sequencing and analysis of 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA internal spacer region (ISR) of Taylorella equigenitalis, as an important pathogen for contagious equine metritis (CEM).
TL;DR: An extremely high sequence similarity of the 16S rDNA was first demonstrated among the six sequences and may be useful for the discrimination amongst isolates of T. equigenitalis if sequencing is employed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Demonstration of heterogeneous genotypes of Taylorella equigenitalis isolated from horses in six European countries by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
TL;DR: The analysis of genomic DNA from 12 isolates of T. equigenitalis obtained from male horses in France, Sweden and Switzerland gave no evidence of a sex-related difference in the genomic DNA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the value of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, random amplified polymorphic DNA and amplified rDNA restriction analysis for subtyping Taylorella equigenitalis
TL;DR: P pulsed-field gel electrophoresis was shown to discriminate these eight organisms better than random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis, while amplified rDNA restriction analysis was found to be unsuitable for subtyping T. equigenitalis.
