Funded Activity Summary

Avoiding the immune response: lessons from 'simple' bacteria. Some of the most important bacterial diseases of domestic animals are caused by mycoplasmas. Improved control of these diseases would significantly improve agricultural productivity by reducing losses associated with reduced feed conversion efficiency and increased susceptibility to other diseases, as well as improve animal welfare and public health, by reducing the need for antibiotic therapy to control these diseases in food producing animals.
