Genomic restriction fragments isolated from Mycoplasma hyorhinis and Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae were shown by DNA hybridization and nucleotide sequence analyses to contain sequences common to these two species, as well as another porcine-derived mycoplasma, Mycoplasma flocculare. Intraspecies hybridization experiments using these fragments as probes indicated that the sequence is highly redundant in several strains of M. hyorhinis, but that there is diversity in the sizes of restriction fragments detected among these strains. In contrast, repetition of the sequence was limited in M. hyopneumoniae and M. flocculare, and no homologies to this repeated element were apparent in mycoplasma species isolated from animal hosts other than the swine. The reiterated sequence may reflect intraspecies genomic diversification in M. hyorhinis and its selective presence in otherwise unrelated species raises the possibility that it has been horizontally transmitted between these organisms.
