<i>rpoB</i> -Based Identification of Nonpigmented and Late-Pigmenting Rapidly Growing Mycobacteria
1 Dec 2003
Abstract excerpt
Nonpigmented and late-pigmenting rapidly growing mycobacteria (RGM) are increasingly isolated in clinical microbiology laboratories. Their accurate identification remains problematic because classification is labor intensive work and because new taxa are not often incorporated into classification databases. Also, 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis underestimates RGM diversity and does not distinguish between all...
