This investigation was conducted in Sirajganj district in December 2010, on eight farms where animal cases had occurred.<jats:italic>Bacillus anthracis<\/jats:italic>was recovered from soil samples and turbinate bones on six farms. Canonical single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis showed that all the isolates belonged to the major lineage A, sublineage A.Br.001\/002 of China and South East Asia while a multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat (VNTR) analysis (MLVA) with 15 VNTRs demonstrated three unique genotypes. The single nucleotide repeat (SNR) analyses showed two SNR types in 97 out of 99 isolates; nevertheless, due to its higher discriminatory power the presence of two isolates with different SNR-type polymorphisms were detected within two MLVA genotypes. The epidemic occurred during the monsoon season, a time of extensive flooding, suggesting that the source was contaminated feed, not grazing, which is supported by the genetic variance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0950268812001227","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,7,20]],"date-time":"2012-07-20T23:50:52Z","timestamp":1342828252000},"page":"1021-1028","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":29,"title":["Bangladesh anthrax outbreaks are probably caused by contaminated livestock feed"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"141","author":[{"given":"A.","family":"FASANELLA","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"G.","family":"GAROFOLO","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.
