| Abstract | ||
| Fifteen isolates received as Rhodococcus spp. marker as pure culture from nose, ear, throat & sputum of patients infected with pneumonia depending on clinical symptoms observed by specialist physicians , and also from soil. Classification was based upon the morphological, biochemical, ecological, environmental and sensitivity to selected antibiotics characteristics using conventional numerical taxonomy, cluster analysis and average linkage method. The similarity level between strains were determined and compared using simple matching coefficient Ssm. The results indicated that (34) isolates are belongs to species Rh. equi and were differentiated into three main clusters within the hierachical dendrogram. The cluster A and B include 15 strains for each of them & the remaining four strain divided into clusler C due to difference in sensitivity to selective antibiotics. | ||
