A susceptible strain of mice infected intravaginally with the mouse
pneumonitis biovar of Chlamydia trachomatis became
infertile and sustained high rates of hydrosalpinx formation regardless of prior infection with a human serovar. Conversely, susceptible mice
infected with human serovars remained fertile unless challenged with a
homologous human serovar.
