Abstract excerpt
The rRNA gene restriction patterns of two species of nutritionally variant streptococci, Streptococcus defectivus and Streptococcus adjacens, were determined, and the results were compared with the electrophoretic migration profiles of penicillin-binding proteins. Reference strains belonging to various streptococcal species were used as controls. Our results correlated with the results of DNA-DNA hybridization...
