Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book details how bacteria cause pneumonia in pigs. The author suggests that, contrary to common belief, the primary cause of the disease is not the bacterium previously thought to be responsible (B. suisepticus) but may in fact be a different, previously overlooked bacterium (an inulin fermenting streptococcus) or even a combination of the two bacteria.
