Staphylococcus aureus is a common causative agent of bovine mastitis in dairy herds worldwide. This study was designed to assess the prevalence of mastitis in cows through screening tests and molecular characterization of Staphylococcus aureus strains. Out of 175 randomly screened cows, mastitis was...

Identification of cows with subclinical mastitis (SCM) is an important tool for sustainable dairying and implementing effective mastitis control strategies. A total of 892 quarters milk samples from 228 lactating cows were screened by California mastitis test (CMT), White side test (WST), Surf field...

Shortening age at puberty of crossbred breeding bull is an important issue in the tropics. This study aimed at selecting crossbred bulls at earliest possible age with bigger scrotum and potential for donating quality semen. One hundred and 31 pre-joining crossbred bulls of Central Artificial Insemin...

BACKGROUND: Staphylococcus spp. are the major causal agents of mastitis in dairy animals worldwide leading to profound economic losses and public health threats. Recently, Staphylococcus aureus has emerged as a multidrug resistant and zoonotic pathogen. This study aimed to characterize S. aureus in ...

The successful outcome of an insemination is a combination of both male and female fertility-linked factors. We investigated the first service conception rate of cows at artificial insemination (AI) in the smallholder dairy farms in Bangladesh. Frozen straws were prepared from ejaculates of Bos indi...

Non-aureus staphylococci (NAS) represent a major etiological factor in dairy animal mastitis, yet their role and impact remain insufficiently studied. This study aimed to elucidate the genomic characteristics of a newly identified multidrug-resistant NAS strain, specifically Staphylococcus warneri G...

Escherichia coli is one of the major pathogens causing mastitis in lactating mammals. We hypothesized that E. coli from the gut and mammary glands may have similar genomic characteristics in the causation of mastitis. To test this hypothesis, we used whole genome sequencing to analyze two multidrug ...

We sequenced the genomes of Escherichia coli isolates G2M6U and G6M1F, two multidrug-resistant strains that were isolated from mammary tissue and fecal samples, respectively, from mice with induced mastitis. The complete genomes of G2M6U and G6M1F consist of chromosomes of 4.4 Mbp and 4.6 Mbp, respe...

We sequenced the genome of Staphylococcus warneri G1M1F, a multidrug-resistant strain isolated from fecal samples of mice with induced mastitis. The complete genome of G1M1F consists of one chromosome of 2,504,515 bp and two plasmid replicons of 28,679 and 8,615 bp; it comprises 32.7% GC content, wi...

ABSTRACT We sequenced the genomes of Pediococcus pentosaceus strains MBBL4 and MBBL6, isolated from raw milk samples of healthy cows. The draft genomes of the MBBL4 and MBBL6 were 1,896,831 bp and 1,849,397 bp, respectively, and were fragmented into 58 and 42 contigs, with coverages of 118.2× and 12...

Pediococcus pentosaceus has the potential to be used as probiotics and biologics amid rising trends of global antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and non-communicable diseases. This study analyzed the genome of P. pentosaceus MBBL4, isolated from healthy cow milk, to assess its probiotic properties and a...
