Abstract excerpt
On the basis of nucleic acid relationships, the family Neisseriaceae consists of the genera Neisseria, Kingella, Simonsiella and of Alysiella filiformis, Eikenella corrodens, and the CDC groups EF-4 and M-5. Differentiation, especially of the new members of the family, by conventional phenotypic characteristics is difficult and in some cases leads to doubtful results. On the other hand, cellular components proved...
