RESEARCH ARTICLEJ. Ind. Vet. Assoc., Kerala. 10 (1)Among the samples inoculated in broth, onlyeight were found positive for genus specific PCRwhereas, in case of those plated onto PPLO agar, 12were positive. Out of these 12, four samples werenegative for PCR, when collected in broth. Thus, atotal of 12 samples (including the four samples thatwere additionally positive when collected ontoPPLO agar plates) were positive for genus specificPCR. This was in agreement with the finding thatfor the isolation of avian Mycoplasma, solid mediumwas found to be more effective than liquid medium(Ronglian et al., 1996).Isolation of Mycoplasma gallisepticum from PCRpositive samplesOut of the four samples which gave a positive resultfor species specific PCR, Mycoplasma could beisolated from three. This might be due to the fact thatthe viability of the organism in the sample did notFig. 1.
