Proposal for classifying strain PG-24 and related canine mycoplasmas as Mycoplasma edwardii sp. n.
Mycoplasmas recovered recently from dogs were found unrelated to three classified canine Mycoplasma serotypes but were similar in biological and serological properties to a Mycoplasma strain (C21, PG-24) isolated 18 years earlier. It is proposed that strains with the characteristics described be designated Mycoplasma edwardii sp. n.
