Signature region within the 16S rDNA sequences of Aeromonas popoffii

FEMS Microbiol Lett. 1999 Mar 15;172(2):239-46. doi: 10.1111/j.1574-6968.1999.tb13474.x.

Abstract

To identify a group of eight Aeromonas strains of our collection showing ribotyping patterns similar to those described for the species Aeromonas popoffii, 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis was performed. Results were in agreement with the DNA binding values, and allowed the identification of a 'signature region' differentiating the A. popoffii strains from all other members of the genus Aeromonas.
