Rioja

Rioja MR 12 1984

The strain was isolated in 1970 from an opossum (Philander opossum) trapped in the Rioja location in the Peruvian jungle and published as a new serovar named rioja (Liceras de Hidalgo et al., 1984). It was recognized at the TSC meeting in Manchester in 1986 as a new serovar of the Bataviae group (Kmety, Dikken, 1988). Its serovar status was confirmed by a RL after that meeting. Therefore it is marked by (o) in the Revised List of 1988. In the updated attached list, it is included unconditionally.
