Intrageneric Relationships of Members of the Genus Fusobacterium as Determined by Reverse Transcriptase Sequencing of Small-Subunit rRNA
1 Jul 1991
Abstract excerpt
The phylogenetic interrelationships of 14 members of the genus Fusobacterium were investigated by performing a comparative analysis of the 16S rRNA sequences of these organisms. The sequence data revealed considerable intrageneric heterogeneity. The four species Fusobacterium nucleatum (including F. nucleatum subsp. nucleatum, F. nucleatum subsp. polymorphum, "F. nucleatum subsp. fusiforme," and "F. nucleatum...
