Bordetella parapertussis (Eldering and Kendrick 1938) Moreno-López 1952
Bordetella parapertussis is a small Gram-negative bacterium of the genus Bordetella which is adapted to colonise the mammalian respiratory tract.[1] Pertussis caused by B. parapertussis manifests with similar symptoms to B. pertussis-derived disease but tends to be generally less severe.[2] Scientific classification or biological classification is a method by which biologists group and categorize species of organisms. ...

Two lineages of B. parapertussis have been described. The first infects humans and is responsible for a minority of cases of the disease pertussis (also known as whooping cough).[3] The second, ovine, lineage causes chronic non-progressive pneumonia in sheep.[4] Both lineages are thought to have evolved from a B. bronchiseptica-like ancestor.[5] This disease can be symptomatic or asymptomatic and may predispose hosts to secondary infection.[6] Pertussis, also known as whooping cough, is a highly contagious disease caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis; a similar, milder disease is caused by B. parapertussis. ... ... Pneumonia is an illness of the lungs and respiratory system in which the alveoli (microscopic air-filled sacs of the lung responsible for absorbing oxygen from the atmosphere) become inflamed and flooded with fluid. ... Binomial name Bordetella bronchiseptica (Ferry 1912) Moreno-López 1952 Bordetella bronchiseptica is a bacterium of the genus Bordetella that can cause infectious bronchitis. ...
