Ribotyping of the Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-Acinetobacter baumannii complex [PDF]
The Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-Acinetobacter baumannii complex consists of four genotypically distinct but phenotypically very similar bacterial species or DNA groups: A. calcoaceticus (DNA group 1), A. baumannii (DNA group 2), unnamed DNA group 3 (P.

Taxonomy of the Genus Acinetobacter with the Recognition of Acinetobacter baumannii sp. nov., Acinetobacter haemolyticus sp. nov., Acinetobacter johnsonii sp. nov., and Acinetobacter junii sp. nov. and Emended Descriptions of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus and Acinetobacter lwoffii [PDF]
Using deoxyribonucleic acid hybridization (S1 nuclease method), we identified 12 hybridization groups (genospecies) containing 74 strains among 85 Acinetobacter strains studied. A total of 28 characters which allowed identification of the genospecies were applied to 266 strains. Of the 12 genospecies, 11 could be unambiguously identified. Genospecies 1
