Complete hybrid genome assembly of serotype A2 strain D95 isolated from ovine lung.

is a major bacterial pathogen associated with broncho- and fibrinous pneumonia in ruminants. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of an isolate of serotype A2 (D95) recovered from a pneumonic ovine lung. The D95 genome has a size of 2.

Complete genome sequence of a strain 91 isolated from a beef calf with pneumonia.

is an important causative agent of bovine respiratory disease complex. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of a strain 91, which was isolated from a pneumonic lung tissue sample collected from a beef calf.

Characterization of Histophilus somni sialic acid uptake mutant (ΔnanP-ΔnanU) using a mouse septicemia and mortality model.

Histophilus somni is an important pathogen of the bovine respiratory disease complex, yet the mechanisms underlying its virulence remain poorly understood. It is known that H. somni can incorporate sialic acid into lipooligosaccharide (LOS), and sialylated H.

An injectable subunit vaccine containing Elongation Factor Tu and Heat Shock Protein 70 partially protects American bison from infection.

() is the etiologic agent of high mortality epizootics of chronic respiratory disease in American bison (). Despite the severity of the disease, no efficacious commercial vaccines have been licensed for the prevention of infection in bison. Elongation factor thermal unstable (EFTu) and Heat Shock Protein 70 (Hsp70, ) are highly conserved, constitutively expressed proteins that have previously been shown to provide protection against infection in cattle.

Transcriptomic profiles of Mannheimia haemolytica planktonic and biofilm associated cells.

Mannheimia haemolytica is the principal agent contributing to bovine respiratory disease and can form biofilms with increased resistance to antibiotic treatment and host immune defenses. To investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying M. haemolytica biofilm formation, transcriptomic analyses were performed with mRNAs sequenced from planktonic and biofilm cultures of pathogenic serotypes 1 (St 1; strain D153) and St 6 (strain D174), and St 2 (strain D35).
