title: Plasmid profile analysis of bovine isolates of Pasteurella haemolytica.
abstract: Pasteurella haemolytica isolates, obtained from cattle with respiratory tract disease, were characterized as to serotype, antimicrobial susceptibility, and plasmid content. Strains isolated from 2 groups of cattle were compared. Remarkable similarity was seen in the plasmid profiles of isolates of the same serotype. In contrast, isolates of 2 different serotypes had totally different plasmid profiles.
