Abstract excerpt
In this work, we used the random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique to evaluate the genetic diversity in Lactococcus garvieae, an important pathogen for fish. Fifty-seven strains with different hosts and geographical origins, including Japan and several countries of the Mediterranean area such as Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, England, and Turkey, were analyzed. Two primers, oligonucleotides 5 and 6...
