The nucleotide sequences of the genes encoding 16S rRNA and citrate synthase (gltA) from a recently described member of the genus Bartonella, Bartonella vinsonii subsp. arupensis, isolated from mice and from the blood of a patient suffering from bacteraemia, were determined and compared with sequences of the 16S rDNA and gltA genes of other members of the genus Bartonella in order to determine its relative phylogenetic position. B. vinsonii subsp. arupensis appeared to be closely related to B. vinsonii subsp. vinsonii, another rodent-associated taxon, and to B. vinsonii subsp. berkhoffii, which was described recently in dogs.
对从小鼠和一名菌血症患者血液中分离出的巴尔通体属新描述成员——文森巴尔通体阿鲁普亚种（Bartonella vinsonii subsp. arupensis）编码16S rRNA和柠檬酸合酶（gltA）的基因的核苷酸序列进行了测定，并与巴尔通体属其他成员的16S rDNA和gltA基因序列进行比较，以确定其相对系统发育位置。文森巴尔通体阿鲁普亚种似乎与另一个与啮齿动物相关的分类群——文森巴尔通体文森亚种（B. vinsonii subsp. vinsonii）以及最近在犬类中描述的文森巴尔通体伯克霍夫亚种（B. vinsonii subsp. berkhoffii）密切相关。
