MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION OF THE NEWCASTLE DISEASE VIRUS THAT CAUSED AN OUTBREAK IN BACKYARD BIRDS IN COSTA RICA IN 2015

Molecular characterization of the Newcastle disease virus that caused an outbreak in backyard birds in Costa Rica in 2015

Costa Rica gained its Newcastle Disease Virus NDV-free status with vaccination according to OIE proceedings in 1996, and its declaration as a country free of the velogenic, viscerotropic form of this disease (G/SPS/GEN/119) presented to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 1999.On April 24th, 2015, SENASA (National Animal Health Service) attended

Whole Genome DNA Sequence Analysis of Salmonella subspecies enterica serotype Tennessee obtained from related peanut butter foodborne outbreaks.

Establishing an association between possible food sources and clinical isolates requires discriminating the suspected pathogen from an environmental background, and distinguishing it from other closely-related foodborne pathogens.We used whole genome sequencing (WGS) to Salmonella subspecies enterica serotype Tennessee (S.Tennessee) to describe gen
