The clinical signs, pathogenesis, diagnosis and pathological features of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae infection in pigs are described.
In this chapter, the different diagnostic techniques available for Mycoplasma hyopneumonia in growing and/or finishing animals alongside their advantages and limitations are reviewed.
This chapter describes the phylogenetics, culture and pathogenicity of Mycoplasma species in pigs.
This chapter provides a summary of the literature regarding diversity in Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae strains, pointing out discrepancies, and highlighting that there is still much to be gleaned from this genome reduced, yet highly complex pathogen.
This chapter discusses the current knowledge of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae virulence, sequence of pathogenesis, adhesion, candidate virulence factors, immune modulation and Mycoplasma host interaction. A simple model of M. hyopneumoniae pathogenicity was also presented.
This chapter focused on the aspects related to prevalence, infection dynamics, transmission, risk factors, and distribution of M. hyopneumoniae.
This chapter presents current knowledge on the pathogenesis and immune responses against Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae infection in pigs and mice based on studies acquired from other Mycoplasma infections.
This chapter describes the technical and economic impacts of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae interactions with respiratory bacterial and viral pathogens, parasitic infections and mycotoxins. The effects of these combinations on the clinical outcome and the underlying mechanisms of the interactions are...
This chapter focused on the control of M. hyopneumoniae aside from antibiotic treatment and vaccine application, also an overview of the most prominent factors affecting M. hyopneumoniae disease development and clinical presentation are discussed in detail in different sections of this chapter.
This chapter reviews the antimicrobials and antimicrobial treatments used to control M. hyopneumoniae infections. It also gives an overview of in vitro and in vivo activities of these antimicrobials and of resistance mechanisms described for M. hyopneumoniae towards these antimicrobials.
