Nucleotides found at 35 polymorphic sites in the E. bieneusi small-subunit rRNA ITSs of 30 representative sequences. A to P, type III, type V, EdpD, EbfelA, and EdpB are genotypes presently in GenBank. PigEBITS1 to -9 are new ITS sequence types discovered during this work in positive pig samples from a slaughterhouse. The type(s) of organism from which each sequence was derived is displayed. The accession numbers for the previously sequenced E. bieneusi types are as follows: AF10197 to AF101200 for types A to D, AF135832 to AF135837 for types E to J, AF267141 to AF267146 for types K to P, AF118144 for type EbfelA, AF076043 for type EbpD, and AF06041 for type EbpB.
