Mengla

A 85/Mengla A 85 1984

The strain was isolated in 1970 from a patient in the province of Yunnan, China, and described by Gao et al. (1984) as anew serovar named A 85, reference strain A 85. Its serovar status was confirmed by a RL. The TSC (Manchester, 1986) recognized the serovar in spite of its incorrect naming which is expected to be changed into Mengla (Chen Ting-zuo: personal communication).
Because of incomplete documentation the strain is listed with i.d. in the Revised List of 1988 (Kmety & Dikken, 1988), and in the attached updated list.
