Query: NC_016638:429437 Mycoplasma haemocanis str. Illinois chromosome, complete genome Lineage: Mycoplasma haemocanis; Mycoplasma; Mycoplasmataceae; Mycoplasmatales; Tenericutes; Bacteria General Information: Mycoplasma haemocanis has been widely studied due to its role as a veterinary pathogen that usually causes latent infection in the dog until splenectomy or immunosuppression trigger overt disease. The strain Illinois of M. haemocanis is pathogenic to the host; it was harvested from the blood of a naturally infected 8-year-old splenectomized dog and used for this genomic sequencing project.

General Information: Isolated from the surface of the lemon tree flower. Bacterium which lacks a cell wall. This organism is a member of the Mollicutes which are bacteria that lack a cell wall and are obligately parasitic on a number of organisms including mammals, insects, and plants. Mesoplasma florum is a nonpathogenic organism and is nonmotile and is not closely related to Mycoplasma genitalium and Mycoplasma pneumoniae. Unlike other Mollicutes, this species does not require sterol to be supplied in the media for growth.
