摘要
Long PCR was used to amplify a 5-kb fragment of the bacterial ribosomal operon (16S-intergenic spacer region (ISR)-23S) from several Ralstonia eutropha strains (16S rDNA sequence similarity: 97-99%). Due to the large product size, amplicons from the different strains could be distinguished using restriction enzyme fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) and repetitive PCR analysis (Rep-PCR) with the primer 1492r. These methods may prove useful in differentiating other bacterial strains with highly similar 16S rDNA sequences. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
