RT Journal Article SR Electronic(1) A1 ROSENDAL, S.YR 1973 T1 Mycoplasma cynos, a New Canine Mycoplasma Species JF International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, VO 23 IS 1 SP 49 OP 54 DO https://doi.org/10.1099/00207713-23-1-49 PB Microbiology Society, SN 1466-5034, AB Eleven glucose-fermenting Mycoplasma strains were isolated from the respiratory and genital tracts of dogs. Biological and serological studies demonstrated that the group was different from the established canine Mycoplasma species and glucose-fermenting species of noncanine origin. It is concluded that this group of mycoplasmas should be classified as a new species, and the name Mycoplasma cynos is proposed. The type strain of M. cynos is H 831 (ATCC 27544; NCTC 10142)., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/00207713-23-1-49
