Abstract excerpt
Forty-five strains mainly isolated from chickens in Zimbabwe and Denmark, two pig and three rat isolates all identified as Pasteurella gallinarum by conventional phenotypic tests were characterized by ribotyping, and selected strains were subsequently analysed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. High genotypic diversity was observed, the number of ribotypes totalling 24. A major group of 47 isolates including the type...
