Use of random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis and single-enzyme amplified fragment length polymorphism in molecular typing of Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale strains.

Abstract excerpt

Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale (ORT) is a bacterium common to commercial poultry and wild birds throughout the world. It is also known as a causative agent of respiratory diseases. A total of 93 ORT isolates originating from chickens, pigeons, ostriches, quail, turkeys, and an Asian crested goshawk (Accipiter trivirgatus) in Taiwan, between 2004 and 2006, were used in this study. High genetic similarity...
