| 英文描述 | Bolo disease is caused by a CORYNEBACTERIUM species that creates localized skin disease in sheep. Clinical signs include well-defined dark grey to black patches of varying sizes (20mm to 30 cm or more in diameter) on the fleece of sheep (Joubert et al.). Affected skin can appear purple in color, but after shearing the affected areas have a chalky white appearance. Reported in South Africa. Older sheep and those in poor condition are affected most severely. Has been experimentally reproduced (Joubert et al.). Dx by skin culture. |
