Pasteurella multocida is a highly versatile pathogen capable of causing infections in a wide range of domestic and wild animals as well as in humans and nonhuman primates. Despite over 135 years of research, the molecular basis for the myriad manifestations ofP. multocida pathogenesis and the determinants ofP. multocida phylogeny remain poorly defined.
