FRANKFURT, Sept 3 (Reuters) - Vonovia  VNAn.DE , which just 
changed its name from Deutsche Annington, will be added to the 
DAX index  .GDAXI  of leading German shares after a raft of 
acquisitions helped the real estate group expand rapidly 
following its flotation in 2013. 
    Stock exchange operator Deutsche Boerse  DB1Gn.DE  said on 
Thursday Vonovia's stock would replace Lanxess  LXSG.DE , the 
world's largest synthetic rubber maker, in the first shake-up of 
the country's top share index in three years.
