| Resumo: |
Caseous lymphadenits (CL) is a chronic and subclinical disease that affects goats and sheep and, consequently, causes economic losses, especially to small producers. The purpose of this study, through use of Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), was to verify the presence of virulence genes of phospholipase D (PLD), integral membrane protein (FagA), iron enterobactin transporter (FagB), ATP binding cytoplasmic membrane protein (FagC) and iron siderophore binding protein (FagD) in 168 isolates of C. pseudotuberculosis obtained from cases of caseous lymphadenitis in goats and sheep. FagA, FagB and PLD genes were detected in all 145 strains isolated from abscesses in superficial lymph nodes and in 23 strains isolated from viscera. The FagC gene was positive in 167 (99.40%) isolates. The FagD gene was detected in 160 (95.23%) isolates. All virulence factors analyzed were found more frequently among isolates collected in the viscera of animals with CL, indicating a multifactorial nature, as well as variations, in the invasive potential of C. pseudotuberculosis strains.
