Resistance to 16-Membered Macrolides, Tiamulin and Lincomycin in a Swine Isolate of <i>Acholeplasma laidlawii</i>

<i>Acholeplasma</i> (<i>A.</i>) <i>laidlawii</i> is an opportunistic pathogen with the ability to disseminate resistance determinants to antibiotics; however, its resistance to macrolides has been less studied. The aim of the present study was to characterize the...
