RESUMO

DNA probes that encode a complete flagellin gene and various internal regions of the Campylobacter coli VC167 flagellin genes were hybridized to 30 strains of C. coli or C. jejuni from 20 different Lior serogroups. The results indicated a high overall degree of homology among all of the strains examined. Although the most variable regions occurred within the middle of the gene, significant DNA homology was observed among many serogroups in this region of the molecule.
