AB - A Gram-positive coccus isolated from a Giant Panda was identified
by 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene sequencing analysis. Phylogenetic analysis
showed that the organism was a member of the family Rothia. The 16S rRNA
gene sequence of the organism showed 100% similarity with R. nasimurium
strain CCUG 35957. Animal experiments were conducted to study the pathogenicity
of R. nasimurium SCGP. This is the first reported isolation of R.
nasimurium from the upper respiratory tracta of Giant Panda.
