Streptococcus hillyeri: Egy, a lovak mikrobiomjában újonnan azonosított baktérium PCR-alapú kimutatása és a hordozás arányának vizsgálata

Abstract

Modern equine husbandry presents many new challenges to veterinary practices and therefore the identification of pathogens that could potentially infect horses is of paramount importance. In addition to known pathogens, new bacterial and viral species can be detected thanks to the availability of new generation genomic methods. A previously unknown bacterium, Streptococcus hillyeri, was first isolated from a horse tracheal sample in 2010 and was reported in a paper published in 2019.
