This study aimed to investigate Listeria species in various samples taken from aborted sheep in Kars province and to determine the position of emerged strains in the phylogenetic tree. Milk (n= 229) and vaginal swab (n= 263) samples from aborted sheep and abomasum contents (n= 46) of aborted sheep fetuses were investigated by the culture and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) methods. For the phylogenetic analysis of isolates, the 16S rRNA gene region was sequenced. In the culture, the Listeria agent was not isolated from any of the vaginal swabs or milk samples. Among the 46 fetal abomasum contents, a Listeria …

Anthrax, which is primarily a disease of herbivores, is known to infect many animal species. In order to break the cycle of anthrax infection, it is important to identify the potential hosts or reservoirs of its causative agent. Therefore, this study aimed to characterize Bacillus anthracis isolates recovered from a variety of hosts and environments during anthrax sporadic in the Kars and Kayseri regions of Turkey. For this purpose, a total of 23 B. anthracis field isolates obtained from human, cattle, sheep, dog, horse, puma, soil, and fodder were used. In addition, the Sterne vaccine strain was included. All B. …
