title: Pasteurellaceae from Colorado bighorn sheep herds.
abstract: We compared phenotypic and genotypic characterizations of 88 Pasteurellaceae isolates from bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis) in the course of exploring epizootiologic relationships. Based on our observations, adopting contemporary taxonomic conventions and using molecular methods to detect and compare Pasteurellaceae may help improve understanding of bighorn respiratory disease epizootiology and management.
