      This work reports the draft genome sequences of the Mycobacterium bovis strains M1009 and M1010, isolated from the lymph nodes of two infected cows on a beef farm in Paraguay. Comparative genomics between these strains and ...

    • Experimental selection of long‐term intracellular mycobacteria 

      Vazquez, Cristina Lourdes; Lerner, Thomas R.; Kasmapour, Bahram; Pei, Gang; Gronow, Achim; Bianco, María Veronica; Blanco, Federico Carlos; Bleck, Christopher K.E.; Geffers, Robert; Bigi, Fabiana; Abraham, Wolf-Rainer; Gutierrez, Maximiliano Gabriel (Wiley, 2014-09)
      Some intracellular bacteria are known to cause long‐term infections that last decades without compromising the viability of the host. Although of critical importance, the adaptations that intracellular bacteria undergo ...

    • Identification and evaluation of new Mycobacterium bovis antigens in the in vitro interferon gamma release assay for bovine tuberculosis diagnosis
