Abstract excerpt
A group of campylobacters isolated from river water were found to possess unusually large flagellin genes. Both phenotype and serology were consistent with identification as Campylobacter coli. Phylogenetic analysis of small (16S, rrs) and large subunit (23S, rrl) rRNA genes of a representative strain, NCTC 13006, demonstrated high levels of relatedness with C. jejuni and C. coli (99.1 and 98.3% similarity for...
