Infection and Immunity, 1978 Saturation reassociation assays with 125I-labeled treponemal DNAs show that Treponema hyodysenteriae is genetically unrelated to T. pallidum (Nichols), T. phagedenis biotype Reiter, and T. refringens biotype Noguchi. Pathogenic and nonpathogenic isolates of T. hyodysenteriae exhibited 28% sequence homology and had an extremely low guanine-plus-cytosine
