“…116 The species Mycoplasma mycoides contains two taxa from a cluster that have been identified as causes of abortion in sheep and goats. 120 Other species, Mycoplasma agalactia and Mycoplasma putrefaciens, have been reported to cause abortion in goats. capri is a collective designation for the former taxa M. mycoides subsp.…”

The purpose of this review is to summarize bacterial, fungal, protozoan, and viral causes of reproductive dysgenesis in cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, horses, dogs, and cats. The clinical presentations of disease due to reproductive pathogens are emphasized, with a focus on assisting development of complete lists of causes that result in abortion and infertility in these species. Clinicians are encouraged to assess clinical presentation, create complete lists of differential diagnoses, obtain appropriate diagnostic samples, maximize diagnostic laboratory support, and avoid zoonotic infections resulting from reproductive pathogens of animals. The foundation of an accurate diagnosis of reproductive loss due to infectious pathogens facilitates the prudent use of immunization and biosecurity to minimize reproductive losses.

“…Experimental infection has caused septicaemia, keratoconjunctivitis, polyarthritis and pneumonia in goat kids (Cordy and others 1955, DaMassa and others 1983, Rodriguez and others 1998, Monnerat and others 1999), as well as abortions in adult goats (Rodriguez and others 1996). The microorganism has also been isolated from natural cases of polyarthritis in goat kids and young goats (Cordy and others 1955), abortion (Rodriguez and others 1996) and mastitis in goats (DaMassa and others 1992), and from cases of goat contagious agalactia (Perreau and Breard 1979, Ruffin 2001, De la Fe and others 2007). However, there are few references to natural cases of the respiratory and joint form of the disease in adult goats (Bölske and others 1988).…”
