Abstract excerpt
Duck infectious serositis is the most serious bacterial disease of ducks. It is caused by Riemerella anatipestifer (RA) infection. The capsule plays an important role in virulence of many pathogenic bacteria. In addition, the capsule has some key biological features. However, few studies have explored the characteristics of the RA capsule. In this study, we mainly constructed a capsular mutants of RA by...
