Not AvailableIn the present study, epidemiology and risk analysis of Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR) and brucellosis in organized dairy farms was done. Sera samples (cattle (421) and buffalo (160)) were collected randomly from dairy farms viz., Bijapur (Farm A), Dharwad (Farm B) in Karnataka, Chennai (Farm C), Cuddalore (Farm D) in Tamilnadu state, India. Apparent and true prevalence were 63.2% and 67.9%, 28.2% and 30.3%, 18.8% and 20.2% for IBR, Brucella and both antibodies, respectively. Higher seroprevalence of IBR and brucellosis were in Farm B (81.3%) and Farm D (60.6%), respectively. Higher age groups and crossbred bovines showed increased IBR and brucellosis seroprevalence. Seropositivity for brucellosis was high in Females (29.0%) whereas, IBR was high in males (82.6%). Relative risk in cattle were 1.30 (brucellosis) and 1.15 (IBR) times more than buffaloes. Attributable risk of IBR and brucellosis were 23.34% and 13.25% in cattle than buffaloes. Risk difference of IBR and brucellosis were 9/100 and 7/100 cattle, than buffaloes. There was association for occurrence of IBR and brucellosis based on age (brucellosis only), sex, breed, animal health status, indicating influence of host factors in concurrent occurrence of these diseases. There is need for IBR vaccination, zoosanitary measures and strengthening of brucellosis control in organized dairy farms for better productivity and profitable dairying in India.Not Availabl

Not AvailableEscherichia coli is one of the major pathogens causing mastitis that adversely affects the dairy industry worldwide. This study employed whole genome sequence (WGS) approach to characterize the repertoire of antibiotic resistance genes (resistome), virulence genes (virulome), phylogenetic relationship and genome wide comparison of a multi drug resistant (MDR) E. coli (SCM-21) isolated from a case of subclinical bovine mastitis in Bangalore, India. The genome of E. coli SCM- 21 was found to be of 4.29 Mb size with 50.6% GC content, comprising a resistome of 22 genes encoding beta-lactamases (blaTEM,blaAmpC), polymyxin resistance (arnA) and various efflux pumps (acr, ade, emr,rob, mac, mar, rob), attributing to the bacteria's overall antibiotic resistance genetic profile. The virulome of E. coli SCM-21 consisted of genes encoding different traits [adhesion (ecp, fim, fde), biofilm formation (csg) and toxin production (ent, esp, fep, gsp)], necessary for manifestation of the infection. Phylogenetic relationship of E. coli SCM- 21 with other global E. coli strains (n = 4867) revealed its close genetic relatedness with E. coli strains originating from different hosts of varied geographical regions [human (Germany) bos taurus (USA, Belgium and Scotland) and chicken (China)]. Further, genome wide comparative analysis with E. coli (n = 6) from human and other animal origins showed synteny across the genomes. Overall findings of this study provided a comprehensive insight of the hidden genetic determinants/power of E. coli SCM-21 that might be responsible for manifestation of mastitis and failure of antibiotic treatment. Aforesaid strain forms a reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and can integrate to one health micro biosphere.Not Availabl
