Mannheimia bovis is a species of Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic bacteria within the family Pasteurellaceae. It was first described in 2021 following its isolation from the lung of a cow that died from hemorrhagic pneumonia in Yunnan Province, China.[1] The type strain is ZY190616T (= CCTCC AB 2020168T = KCTC 25018T).
Mannheimia bovis cells are Gram-negative, non-motile, pleomorphic rods measuring approximately 0.2–0.3 × 0.2–2.5 μm. They are facultatively anaerobic and non-spore-forming. Biochemically, they produce specific fatty acids and polar lipids and utilize coenzyme Q-7 as their sole respiratory quinone.[1]
