Abstract

Mycoplasmas were isolated from the respiratory tracts of prairie voles (Microtus ochrogaster). This paper presents biochemical, serological and molecular genetic characterizations of those organisms and proposes a new species, Mycoplasma microti sp. nov. The type strain of Mycoplasma microti is strain IL371T (ATCC 700935T).
