title: Aeromonas enteropelogenes and Aeromonas ichthiosmia are identical to Aeromonas trota and Aeromonas veronii, respectively, as revealed by small-subunit rRNA sequence analysis.
abstract: The 16S rRNA gene sequences of the type strains of Aeromonas enteropelogenes and Aeromonas ichthiosmia were determined by polymerase chain reaction direct sequencing in order to clarify their interrelationships with other aeromonad species. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, A. enteropelogenes and A. ichthiosmia were found to be identical to Aeromonas trota and Aeromonas veronii, respectively.
