experimental studies on the pathogenicity of mycoplasma ovipneumoniae and mycoplasma arginini for the respiratory tract of goats.	mycoplasma ovipneumoniae and mycoplasma arginini were the species of mollicutes most commonly isolated from 175 goats with respiratory disease in ontario. the pathogenicity of m. ovipneumoniae, strain b321b and m. arginini, strain d53e, was assessed in goats following endobronchial inoculation. one out of three two year old goats developed fever after inoculation with a pure culture of strain b321b, and it had extensive subacute fibrinous pleuritis when necropsied three weeks later. neither of t ...	1986	3742358
diseases and pathogens associated with mortality in ontario beef feedlots.	this study determined the prevalence of diseases and pathogens associated with mortality or severe morbidity in 72 ontario beef feedlots in calves that died or were euthanized within 60 days after arrival. routine pathologic and microbiologic investigations, as well as immunohistochemical staining for detection of bovine viral diarrhea virus (bvdv) antigen, were performed on 99 calves that died or were euthanized within 60 days after arrival. major disease conditions identified included fibrinos ...	2006	16566254
