ABSTRACT
To establish the phylogenetic relationships between the subspecies of Salmonella enterica (official name Salmonella choleraesuis), Salmonella bongori and related members of Enterobacteriaceae, sequence comparison of rRNA was performed by maximum-likelihood analysis. The two Salmonella species were separated by 16S rRNA analysis and found to be closely related to the Escherichia coli and Shigella complex by both 16S and 23S rRNA analyses. The diphasic serotypes S. enterica subspp. I and VI were separated from the monophasic serotypes subspp. Illa and IV, including S. bongori, by 23S rRNA sequence comparison.
Key Words: Salmonella 16S rRNA 23S rRNA phylogeny
The GenBank accession numbers for the sequences reported in this paper are U77919-U77929, AF029226 and AF029227 (see Table 1).
