Abstract excerpt
The genetic diversity of 19 strains belonging to Alteromonas macleodii isolated from different geographic areas (Pacific and Indian Ocean, and different parts of the Mediterranean Sea) and at different depths (from the surface down to 3500 m) has been studied. Fragments of the 16S rRNA gene, the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) between 16S and 23S rDNA genes, the gyrB and the rpoB genes, have been sequenced for...
