Abstract excerpt
In the last 2 decades, a variety of different molecular typing methods have been developed to differentiate strains of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis. The most successful techniques are based on insertion sequences, repetitive loci, comparative genomics, or single nucleotide polymorphisms. In the present study, we chose to examine whether a single M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis gene could serve as...
