Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) relatedness among members of the genus Yersinia and the biochemical reactions of these organisms were compared. These data were used to reassess speciation within the genus Yersinia, and three new species were proposed. These are Yersinia ruckeri sp. n., formerly called the redmouth bacterium; Yersinia intermedia, sp. n., formerly a rhamnose-positive, raffinose-positive, melibiose-positive biogroup within Yersinia enterocolitica; and Yersinia frederiksenii sp. n., formerly a rhamnose-positive, raffinose-negative, melibiose-negative biogroup within Y. enterocolitica.
对耶尔森氏菌属成员之间的脱氧核糖核酸（DNA）相关性以及这些微生物的生化反应进行了比较。这些数据被用于重新评估耶尔森氏菌属内的物种形成，并提出了三个新物种。它们分别是鲁氏耶尔森氏菌（Yersinia ruckeri sp. n.），以前称为红嘴细菌；中间耶尔森氏菌（Yersinia intermedia sp. n.），以前是小肠结肠炎耶尔森氏菌内的一个鼠李糖阳性、棉子糖阳性、蜜二糖阳性生物群；以及费氏耶尔森氏菌（Yersinia frederiksenii sp. n.），以前是小肠结肠炎耶尔森氏菌内的一个鼠李糖阳性、棉子糖阴性、蜜二糖阴性生物群。
