DNA Relatedness among Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae Strains Representing All Twenty-Three Serovars and Erysipelothrix tonsillarum
1 Jul 1992
Abstract excerpt
The levels of relatedness among strains of Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae (serovars 1 through 23 and type N) were estimated by performing DNA-DNA hybridization experiments with the type strains of E. rhusiopathiae and Erysipelothrix tonsillarum, which are the two Erysipelothrix species that have been described. Two distinct DNA relatedness groups were identified. The group 1 strains, representing serovars 1, 2, 4...
