Riemerella anatipestifer DSM 15868

Taxonomy
Names	Riemerella anatipestifer DSM 15868
Accession numbers	NC_014738
Background	Riemerella anatipestifer (strain RA-GD) is a pathogenic, nonsporulating, pleomorphic rod Gram-negative bacterium isolated from an infected duck. It is the causative agent of a septicemic disease in of waterfowl and other avian species (ducks, geese, turkeys). R.anatipestifer can cause a great loss to the poultry industry.
