Table 3. Genetic diversity of the chlamydial strains, host MHC type and KoRV status of trial koalas.
| Koala | ompA genotype | Strain included in vaccine | MHC class II DAb gene allele | MHC class II DBb gene allele | KoRV-B | Koala Age and (sex) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| K1 | G | Y | 10, 19, 30 | 2, 3, 5 | + | 10 (M) |
| K2 | G | Y | 10, 15, 19, 21 | 1, 5 | - | 4 (F) |
| K3 | F | Y | 10, 15, 19, 21 | 2, 4, 5 | - | 3 (M) |
| K4 | F | Y | 15, 19, 21 | 2, 3, 5 | + | 1 (F) |
| K5 | G | Y | 15, 21 | 2, 5 | - | 3 (M) |

| K7 | E' | N | 15, 19, 21 | 3 | - | 8 (F) |
Chlamydia pecorum genotype infecting each koala, at the ocular site, as determined by ompA sequencing. Association between infecting genotype and vaccine antigen, yes (Y) or no (N). MHC class II DAb and DBb gene alleles detected in each koala showing their genetic diversity. Presence (+) or absence (-) of KoRV-B and. Koala age and sex male (M) and female (F).
