Abstract
S. anolium (p.374), a chromogenic, gram-negative, non-spore-forming, motile rod, is the causative agent of a disease in A. equestris, characterized by slowly developing tumor-like lesions seldom directly fatal to the animal. Injection of this organism into healthy Anolis lizards reproduced the disease.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
