Abstract
Mycoplasmas belongs to the class Mollicutes and are among the smallest freeliving
microorganisms capable of auto replication. Mycoplasmas are highly fastidious
bacteria, difficult to culture and slow growing. Many species are important veterinary
pathogens causing respiratory infection, mastitis, conjunctivitis, arthritis, and
occasionally abortion.
