Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae 168 genome sequencing. Mesomycoplasma hyopneumoniae 168

Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is the causative agent of porcine enzootic pneumonia, resulting in a mild, chronic pneumonia of swine. The primary mycoplasmal infection often becomes complicated by secondary bacterial and other virus infections. M. hyopneumoniae strain 168 was isolated from No. 168 Er-hua-nian pig (Chinese local breed, very sensitive to M. hyopneumoniae) in China.
