    Abstract:
    In the present study, the 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer region (ISR) of Arcanobacterium (A.) bialowiezense DSM 17162, A. bonasi DSM 17163, A. bernardiae DSM 9152, A. haemolyticum DSM 20595, A. hippocoleae DSM 15539, A. phocae DSM 10002, A. pluranimalium DSM 13483 and A. pyogenes DSM 20630 was amplified, sequenced and compared with the corresponding 16S rRNA gene sequences yielding comparable phylogenetic relationships. The ISR sequence of A. bialowiezense and A. bonasi allowed the design of species-specific oligonucleotide primers which could successfully be used for PCR-mediated identification of previously characterized A. bialowiezense and A. bonasi isolated from infections of the European bison. The presented molecular identification might help to improve a future diagnosis of both newly described bacterial pathogens.
