Abstract

The nucleotide sequence of the 16S rRNA gene of Mycoplasma bovis has been determined. Comparisons with other 16S rRNA sequences of mycoplasmas showed that Mycoplasma agalactiae is phylogenetically the closet relative. In total, only eight nucleotides differed between the M. bovis and M. agalactiae 16S rRNA sequences. The phylogenetic position of M. bovis with respect to other mycoplasmas was determined by sequence comparisons and from features in the secondary structure of 16S rRNA. © 1994.
