Whole-genome sequence analysis of Clostridium chauvoei isolated from clinical case of black quarter (BQ) from India.

Black quarter (BQ) is an infectious disease affecting cattle and small ruminants worldwide caused by Gram-positive anaerobic bacterium Clostridium chauvoei. In this study, a draft genome sequence of C. chauvoei NIVEDIBQ1 strain isolated from clinical case of black quarter was analyzed.

Comparative genome analysis of Pasteurella multocida serogroup B:2 strains causing haemorrhagic septicaemia (HS) in bovines.

Pasteurella multocida, a Gram-negative bacterium with ubiquitous nature, is known to affect wide range of host species worldwide with varied clinical manifestations including haemorrhagic septicaemia (HS) in bovines. Although, HS causing P. multocida strains were identified and characterized by conventional tools and PCR assays, diverse strains are indistinguishable by these tools in the face of disease outbreaks.

Deep Proteome Profiling of Semen of Indian Indigenous Malnad Gidda () Cattle.

Malnad Gidda is a dwarf indigenous cattle breed of India, which is known for its uniqueness of calving every year under a low input grazing system of rearing. Bulls of Malnad Gidda are known to be highly fertile even in stress conditions. However, the proteomic profiling of semen of this breed has not been investigated so far, which might provide a platform for a better understanding of its semen quality and male fertility.
