ABSTRACT

In a study of the classification of members of the family Pasteurellaceae, the polyamine patterns of 101 strains were analyzed. These strains included the type strains of species belonging to the genera Actinobacillus, Haemophilus, and Pasteurella 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 parainfluenzae 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. 1 Orig. 279:35–44, 1993), who demonstrated that H. parainfluenzae is phylogenetically only distantly related to the type species of the genus Haemophilus, Haemophilus influenzae. The phylogenetic diversity of the genus Pasteurella sensu stricto determined by Dewhirst et al. was also reflected to some extent by different polyamine patterns. The common characteristics found in Pasteurella multocida, Pasteurella canis, Pasteurella dagmatis, Pasteurella stomatis, and Pasteurella sp. strain B were high levels of putrescine and spermidine and the presence of the unusual triamine sym-norspermidine. Pasteurella avium, Pasteurella gallinarum, and Pasteurella volantium contained high concentrations of 1,3-diaminopropane and spermidine. Pasteurella langaa contained only high concentrations of 1,3-diaminopropane, and Pasteurella anatis was characterized by the presence of 1,3-diaminopropane as the predominant compound and high levels of putrescine and spermidine. Our data demonstrate that polyamine patterns are useful for discrimination within the family Pasteurellaceae.
