Mycobacterial strains from different outbreaks of tuberculosis of cattle in Germany from 1996 to 2001 were differentiated by two molecular biological methods (Spoligotyping, RFLP IS6110). The causative agent was in one case Mycobacterium (M.) africanum, in 10 cases M. bovis and in 17 cases M. bovis ssp. caprae, respectively. The results of the molecular biological methods are discussed from the perspective of epizootiology and the particular importance of infections by M. bovis ssp. caprae emphasized. Direct contact of the animals, purchase from infected stocks, infected zoo animals and wildlife, as well as livestock handlers are discussed as possible sources of infection.
