Abstract

ABSTRACT Repetitive sequence-based PCR (rep-PCR) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) were used to characterize a sample of 43 field isolates and 4 attenuated vaccine strains of Pasteurella multocida recovered from multiple avian species. Both rep-PCR and AFLP assays were rapid and reproducible, with high indices of discrimination. Concordance analyses of rep-PCR and AFLP with somatic serotyping indicate that, in general, somatic serotyping is a poor indicator of genetic relatedness among isolates of P. multocida . In addition, the data provide evidence of host specificity of P. multocida clones. Overall, the results of our study indicate that the rep-PCR and AFLP techniques enable rapid fingerprinting of P. multocida isolates from multiple avian species and enhance the investigation of fowl cholera outbreaks.
