“…S. chromogenes is a major cause of mastitis and subclinical mastitis in animals as seen in this review ( 21 , 56 , 57 , 66 , 75 , 76 , 84 , 90 , 106 ). However, no S. chromogenes infections were recorded in Botswana, Algeria, Ethiopia, Libya and Tanzania ( 42 , 46 , 58 – 62 , 64 , 70 , 73 , 87 , 93 , 120 ). The strain distribution could not be described due to the insufficient published data, but we were able to describe epidemiology of SOSA in terms of species distribution.…”
