Table 1 Sampled farms and nasal Moraxella spp. isolated from piglets at weaning (3–4 weeks of age). Ten piglets representing 5 litters from each farm were sampled. Name of strain indicates farm of origin, followed by piglet number and finally the number of isolate. Exceptions to this are LL and CR isolates, which indicate only the number of isolate
From: Heterogeneity of Moraxella isolates found in the nasal cavities of piglets
