Brucella are highly infectious bacterial pathogens responsible for brucellosis, a frequent
worldwide zoonosis. The Brucella genus has recently expanded from 6 to 11 species, all of …

Introduction: Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease that has a significant economic, social and
public health impact in many parts of the world. The causative agents are members of the …

Aims To discuss together the novel cases of Brucella infections in frogs with the results of
published reports to extend our current knowledge on 'atypical'brucellae isolated from …

The genus Brucella comprises various species of both veterinary and human medical
importance. All species are genetically highly related to each other, sharing intra-species …

Remarkable genetic diversity and breadth of host species has been uncovered in the
Brucella genus over the past decade, fundamentally changing our concept of what it means …

Background Bacteria of the genus Brucella are the causative organisms of brucellosis in
animals and man. Previous characterisation of Brucella strains originating from marine …

Atypical brucellae show deviant phenotypes and/or genotypes. Besides Brucella inopinata,
B. microti and B. vulpis, atypical strains have been described infecting humans, rodents …

Background Brucellosis, caused by members of the genus Brucella, remains one of the
world's major zoonotic diseases. Six species have classically been recognised within the …

Brucella inopinata strain BO1 and B. sp. strain BO2 isolated from human patients,
respectively, are genetically different from classical Brucella species. We isolated bacteria of …

A pleomorphic Gram-negative, motile coccobacillus was isolated from the gills of a wild-
