Conclusions: The diversity within C. abortus appears to be much lower compared to other species within the genus.

Results: Whole genome sequencing was performed on our collection of 57 C. abortus isolates originating primarily from the UK, Germany, France and Greece, but also from Tunisia, Namibia and the USA.

No recombination was identified within C. abortus, and no plasmid was found.

Our aim was to investigate a broad collection of European isolates of C. abortus, using next generation sequencing methods, looking at diversity, geographic distribution and genome dynamics.

Large - scale genomic studies on other chlamydial species are giving insights into the biology of these organisms but have not yet been performed on C. abortus.

Background: Chlamydia abortus (formerly Chlamydophila abortus) is an economically important livestock pathogen, causing ovine enzootic abortion (OEA), and can also cause zoonotic infections in humans affecting pregnancy outcome.

No recombination has been identified within this species, showing that different species of Chlamydia may demonstrate different evolutionary dynamics, and that the genome of C. abortus is highly stable.

Human spinal cord tissues were obtained from two nine week old, de-identified abortus samples collected in the course of medically prescribed procedures using the Safe - Harbor Method.

The obligate intracellular bacterial pathogen Chlamydophila abortus strain S26 / 3 (formerly the abortion subtype of Chlamydia psittaci) is an important cause of late gestation abortions in ruminants and pigs.

The US Department of Agriculture, under the direction of Shirley Halling, is sequencing the cattle pathogen Brucella abortus, and TIGR and its collaborators will soon begin work on Brucella ovis, which only infects male sheep.

This cell death is induced by many rough attenuated Brucella strains, including Brucella cattle vaccine strain RB51, B. abortus wboA mutant VTRA1, and B. suis wboA mutant VTRS1.This cell death is prevented by wild type virulent Brucella in infected macrophages, but not in dendritic cells.

All of the sequence data of primers and PCR product are parts of B. abortus genome sequence data [31].

[24] Stumpf, et al., «The Infant with Anencephaly,» The New England Journal of Medicine, 322, no. 10 (8 March 1990): 670, report that «it may not be possible in all cases to distinguish anencephaly from other very severe anomalies of the head... For purposes of genetic and reproductive counseling and epidemiologic reporting, the diagnosis should be confirmed by an experienced observer following delivery of an abortus or stillborn infant.»

As a first step towards determining whether human glial progenitor cells (hGPCs) can generate functionally distinct astrocyte populations, we exposed embryonic hGPCs isolated from spinal cords of 9.5 week old abortuses to BMP or CNTF.
