  1. a. ITG: Institute for Tropical Medicine, Antwerp, Belgium; IPB: Institute Pasteur du Brabant, Brussels, Belgium; SLZ: Streeklaboratorium Zeeland, Goes, the Netherlands; VUB: Free University of Brussels, Brussels, Belgium. b. Strains designated MCRO6 have been studied by Turenne et al.[22] and Torkko et al.[33]. c. Sequences determined in this study. Roman numbering according to Portaels et al.[16], who distinguished four groups within the M. abscessus/M. chelonae complex, based on the 16S–23S rRNA spacer region. d. The GenBank sequence (AF058712) of strain ATCC 14467, submitted to GenBank as M. peregrinum, did not cluster within the M. fortuitum complex (Figure 8) and was highly similar to sequence Y12871 (M. wolinskyi). Moreover, the ARDRA profile calculated from sequence AF058712 (10-1-1-2') did not correspond with the profile we obtained for strain ATCC 14467 (4-1-6-7). The sequence obtained in this study from strain ATCC 14467 (submitted as AJ422046) was identical to the M. fortuitum sequence X52933. Sequence AF058712 is indicated as M. species in the table. e. Received as M. xenopi.
