a conjugative 38 kb plasmid is present in multiple subspecies of xylella fastidiosa.	a ≈ 38kb plasmid (pxf-riv5) was present in the riv5 strain of xylella fastidiosa subsp. multiplex isolated from ornamental plum in southern california. the complete nucleotide sequence of pxf-riv5 is almost identical to that of pxfas01 from x. fastidiosa subsp. fastidiosa strain m23; the two plasmids vary at only 6 nucleotide positions. blast searches and phylogenetic analyses indicate pxf-riv5 and pxfas01 share some similarity to chromosomal and plasmid (pxf51) sequences of x. fastidiosa subsp. ...	2012	23251694
yersinia pseudotuberculosis infections in goats and other animals diagnosed at the california animal health and food safety laboratory system: 1990-2012.	yersinia pseudotuberculosis is a recognized zoonotic food-borne pathogen; however, little is known about the ecology and epidemiology of diseases caused by the bacterium in california. the objective of the current study was to contribute to the knowledge of the diseases caused by y. pseudotuberculosis in goats, the animal species most frequently reported with clinical yersiniosis to the california animal health and food safety laboratory system, to better understand the epidemiology of this dise ...	2014	24442485
yersinia pseudotuberculosis in eurasian collared doves (streptopelia decaocto) and retrospective study of avian yersiniosis at the california animal health and food safety laboratory system (1990-2015).	in february 2015, two eurasian collared doves (streptopelia decaocto) were submitted dead to the california animal health and food safety (cahfs) laboratory, turlock branch, from a private aviary experiencing sudden, high mortality (4/9) in adult doves. in both doves, the gross and histologic lesions were indicative of acute, fatal septicemia. grossly, there were numerous pale yellow foci, 1 to 2 mm in diameter, in the liver and spleen. microscopically, these foci were composed of acute severe m ...	2016	26953950
