Molecular characterisation of the Mycobacterium bovis causing bovine tuberculosis outbreaks in Poland
Since 2009, Poland has been recognised as a country officially free of bovine tuberculosis (bTB), although in each year of the last five there were from 8 to 18 outbreaks of the disease. In 2008–2016, the largest number of cattle infected with bovine mycobacteria were eliminated in the Masovian Prov...
