In pigs, " B . bronchiseptica " and " Pasteurella multocida " act synergistically to cause atrophic rhinitis, a disease resulting in arrested growth and distortion of the turbinates in the nasal terminus ( snout ).
8.
Strains belonging to the species are currently classified into five serogroups ( A, B, D, E, F ) based on capsular composition and 16 somatic serovars ( 1-16 ) . " P . multocida " is the cause of a range of diseases in mammals and birds, including fowl cholera in poultry, atrophic rhinitis in pigs, and bovine hemorrhagic septicemia in cattle and buffalo.

"B . pertussis " and occasionally " B . parapertussis " cause pertussis or whooping cough in humans, and some " B . parapertussis " strains can colonise sheep . " B . bronchiseptica " rarely infects healthy humans, though disease in immunocompromised patients has been reported . " B . bronchiseptica " causes several diseases in other mammals, including kennel cough and atrophic rhinitis in dogs and pigs, respectively.
