Comparison of the 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer regions between Fusobacterium varium and 'Fusobacterium pseudonecrophorum' strains

The 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer regions (ISRs) of five strains of ""Fusobacterium pseudonecrophorum"" which had been proposed as a new species, were compared with those of F. varium ATCC 8501 supT. All the strains of ""F. pseudonecrophorum"" exhibited of se...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer regions (ISRs) of five strains of ""Fusobacterium pseudonecrophorum"" which had been proposed as a new species, were compared with those of F. varium ATCC 8501 supT. All the strains of ""F. pseudonecrophorum"" exhibited of sequence similarities of 91.7% to 100% to the strain of F. varium in their 16S-23S rRNA ISR sequences. This indicates that the strains of ""F. pseudonecrophorum"" and the type strain of F. varium are identical at the species level.
