Isolation of Yersinia (Pasteurella) pseudotuberculosis from the Palm dove (Streptopelia senegalensis)

J Weisman et al. Avian Dis. 1976 Jan-Mar.

Abstract

Yersinia pseudotuberculosis was isolated from a sick Palm dove (Streptopelia senegalensis) picked up near a turkey farm in Nir-Banim, Israel. Clean birds and a guinea pig inoculated with the isolate died of the infection, or were killed in extremis. Y. pseudotuberculosis showing the same cultural characteristics as the original isolate was recovered from these animals. This is the first reported case of this infection from Israel.
