Abstract
This study isolated and identified Staphylococcus aureus from the anterior nares of West African Dwarf (WAD) goat in Osun State, Nigeria, determined the antibiotic susceptibility pattern of S. aureus isolates and identified methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) isolates and Panton Valentine Leukocidin gene. It also investigated the population structure of S. aureus from the nasal samples of the WAD goats. These were with a view to providing information on the prevalence, antibiotic susceptibility pattern, and clonal nature of S. aureus from the nasal samples of WAD goats.
