Distribution of the virulence and QRDR genes in the M. bovis isolates
In this study, we did not observe the presence of uvr C andgap A virulence genes and the QRDR genes by PCR. However, we did record the presence of the vsp virulence gene in 2 out of the13M. bovis isolates (Table2). Also, the par C gene was also present in 2/13 M. bovis isolates, while the gyr A gene was not present in any of the thirteen isolates.
