Mycoplasma in horses
Mycoplasma equirhinis can rarely cause clinical signs in sports horses, rarely causes fibrinous pleuritis without pneumonia
Mycoplasma in dogs (2)
- Usually commensals in the nasopharynx, several possible species
- Mycoplasma cynos most pathogenic, part of multifactorial shelter respiratory disease
Mycoplasma in cats
Do not play a primary role in respiratory infections, but M. felis, M. gatiae, or M. arginini may contribute to more complex disease
