However, there have been no reports of infection with Streptococcus dysgalactiae Subsp. equisimilis (SDSE) in masked palm civets. The first occurrence of SDSE in masked palm civet was reported. Identification of the organism was made by phylogenetic analyses based on partial 16S rRNA gene sequences. The present result has implications for the ongoing control of SDSE in masked palm civets and evidences a host extension of SDSE. ER -
