A mathematical method for determining genome divergence and species delineation using AFLP.

International journal of systematic and evolutionary microbiology - 1 Mar 2002

Mougel Christophe, Thioulouse Jean, Perrière Guy, Nesme Xavier

Abstract excerpt

The delineation of bacterial species is presently achieved using direct DNA-DNA relatedness studies of whole genomes. It would be helpful to obtain the same genomically based delineation by indirect methods, provided that descriptions of individual genome composition of bacterial genomes are obtained and included in species descriptions. The amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique could provide...
