Abstract
The avian mycobacteria have been identified first in relation to their virulence for hens. But this property was not definitely to correlate with serovars. Furthermore, this heterogenicity was to confirm on molecular level. Therefore it was necessary to introduce a M.avium complex beside true M.avium. M.avium has special relevance to AIDS patients. This fact shows that the reasons for infections by these facultatively pathogenic mycobacteria are more complicated as accepted.
