| isolation of mycoplasmas from fantail pigeons. | isolation of mycoplasmas from the oropharynxes of 60 fantails reared under natural conditions at different zoological parks in miyazaki prefecture was carried out. mycoplasma columbinum, m. columborale and m. columbinasale were isolated from 28 (46.7%), 22 (36.7%), and 1 (1.7%) of 60 oropharynxes, respectively, but no mycoplasma was isolated from 5 cloacas tested. ureaplasma was not isolated from any of the 28 oropharynxes or 5 cloacas examined. we report that 41 (68.3%) of 60 fantails had one o ... | 1997 | 9234221 |
| serological survey of racing pigeons for selected pathogens in taiwan. | to investigate the pathogens that racing pigeons in taiwan are exposed to, a total of 3764 pigeons from 90 lofts were analysed by collection of blood samples in the period between october 2000 and september 2001. the haemagglutination inhibition (hi) test was performed to detect antibodies against newcastle disease virus (ndv), type 2 avian paramyxovirus (apmv-2), and egg drop syndrome '76 virus (eds-76v). the agar-gel precipitin (agp) test was used to detect antibodies against fowl adenovirus ( ... | 2006 | 16841756 |
| isolation of mycoplasma spp. from racing pigeons (columba livia). | live and dead racing pigeons (columba livia) from five lofts in norfolk and suffolk were examined clinically and cultured for mycoplasma spp. both clinically healthy birds and those showing signs of mild respiratory disease were included. the oropharynx was the culture site for 130 live birds, the nasal sinuses and other tissues for 58 carcases. mycoplasma columbinum, m. columborale and m. columbinasale were isolated from the oropharynges and nasal sinuses; m. columbinum and m. columbinasale fro ... | 1984 | 18766822 |
| mycoplasma columbinum isolated from a racing pigeon ( columba livia ) with arthritis. | a juvenile racing pigeon ( columba livia ) was presented with drooping of the wing and inability to fly. on physical examination, the right shoulder joint was swollen. the pigeon was euthanatized and submitted for necropsy. an excessive amount of fibrin was present in the canalis triosseus with severe arthritis of the affected shoulder joint. a pure growth of mycoplasma-like colonies was obtained on microbiological culture of the shoulder joint. a 16s ribosomal rna gene-specific polymerase chain ... | 2014 | 25843324 |
| genome sequence of mycoplasma columbinum strain sf7. | mycoplasma columbinum is a member of nonglycolytic mycoplasma species which can hydrolyze arginine. increasingly research has revealed that m. columbinum is associated with respiratory disease of pigeons and that the respiratory disease symptoms could be eliminated via the use of mycoplasma treatment medicine. here we report the genome sequence of m. columbinum strain sf7, which is the first genome report for m. columbinum. | 2013 | 23599295 |
