摘要
Objective. - Prototheca zopfii are colourless algae that can cause mastitis in dairy cattle. Based on sequence analysis of the 18S rRNA gene, three genotypes are described. Material and method. - To differentiate them, a recent method of diagnostic was proposed based on rDNA amplification by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Restriction Fragments Length Polymorphism analysis (RFLP). A total of 30 strains isolated from mastitis cases becoming of various farms were investigated. Results. - The molecular study allowed the identification of 27 strains belonging to genotype II, three to genotype III and no one to genotype I. Conclusion. - The simple PCR/RFLP system enabled the rapid, accurate and easily performed identification of genotypes of the species "zopfii". (C) 2008 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
