MANNHEIM1* Zentrum fur Hygiene und Medizinische Mikrobiologie der Philipps- Universitat, Abteilung Bakteriologie, 0-3550Marburg,‘ and Hygiene-Institut der Ruprecht-Karls-Universitat,0-6900 Heidelberg,2 Federal Republic of Germany Three Australian isolates of “Histophilus ovis,?’ ten strains of “Haemophilus somnus” from North America, Australia, and Europe, and two American strains of “Haemophilus agni” were investigated by the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-DNA hybridization (renaturation) method to determine their genetic interrela- tionships and their levels of relatedness to recognized wembers of the family Pasteurellaceae Pohl 1981. Our results confirmed that “Haemophilus somnus,” “Histophilus ovis,” and one of the “Haemophilus agni” strains studied represent one genetically homogeneous species. This species exhibited up to 41 % DNA relatedness to Haemophilus haemoglobinophilus, whereas only insignificant levels of relatedness or no measurable DNA binding was observed with the type species of the genera Actinobacillus, Haemophilus, and Pasteurella and with Haemophilus aphrophilus, Haemophilus ducreyi, Haemophilus paragallinarum, Haemophilus parainfluenzae, Haemophilus segnis, Pasteurella avium, Pasteurella ureae, and “Actinobucillus seminis. ” On the other hand, one of the “Haemophilus agni” strains studied (Hoerlein strain M650-1343) was included in the species “Acfinobacillus seminis” (DNA binding value, 91%). So far, only low levels of genetic relatedness with “Actinobacillus seminis” and currently recognized members of the family Pasteurellaceae have been detected. The problems of the generic affiliation of the “Histophilus ovis” group, Haemophilus haemoglobinophilus, and “Actinobucillus seminis” and the phenotypic differentiation of these organisms are discussed. The hitherto unrecognized taxa “Histophilus ovis” “Haemophilus somnus,” and ‘Haemophilus agni” strains Roberts 1956 (28), “Haemophilus agni” Kennedy et al. 1958 are genetically related at the species level but are not (lo), “Actinobacillus seminis” Baynes and Simmons 1960 significantly related to “Actinobacillus seminis” and a strain (2), “Haemophilus somnus” Bailie 1969 (W.

These strains included the type strains of species belonging to the genera Actinobacillus, Haemophilus, and Pasteurellu and additional strains of selected species, as well as numerous unnamed strains. Members of the genus Actinobacillus sensu stricto were characterized by the presence of 1,3-diaminopropane as the predominant compound. In the majority of the species of the genus Haemophilus sensu stricto 1,3- diaminopropane was also the major compound in the polyamine pattern. In contrast, Haemophilus intermedius subsp. gazogenes and Haemophilus parainjluenzae were characterized by high levels of 1,3-diaminopropane, cadaverine, and putrescine. These results confirmed the findings of Dewhirst et al. (F. E. Dewhirst, B. J. Paster, I. Olsen, and G. J. Fraser, Zentralbl. Bakteriol. Parasitenkd. Infektionskr. Hyg. Abt. 1Orig. 279:35-44, 1993), who demonstrated that H. parainjluenzae is phylogenetically only distantly related to the type species of the genus Haemophilus, Haemophilus injluenzae. The phylogenetic diversity of the genus Pasteurellu sensu stricto determined by Dewhirst et al. was also reflected to some extent by different polyamine patterns.

Of these strains, 15 were Pasteurella, 16 were ActinobaciUlus, and 23 were Haemophilus. A phylogenetic tree was constructed based on sequence similarity, using the Neighbor-Joining method. Fifty-three of the strains fell within four large clusters. The first cluster included the type strains of Haemophilus influenzae, H. aegyptius, H. aphrophilus, H. haemolyticus, H. paraphrophilus, H. segnis, and Actinobacilus actinomycetemcomitans. This cluster also contained A. actinomycetemcomitans FDC Y4, ATCC 29522, ATCC 29523, and ATCC 29524 and H. aphrophilus NCTC 7901. The second cluster included the type strains ofA. seminis and PasteureMa aerogenes and H. somnus OVCG 43826. The third cluster was composed of the type strains ofPasteureUla multocida, P. anatis, P. avium, P. canis, P. dagmatis, P. galinarum, P. langaa, P. stomatis, P. volantium, H. haemoglobinophilus, H. parasuis, H. paracuniculus, H. paragaUlinarum, and A. capsulatus.
