Abstract excerpt
Molecular diversity of rumen bacteria belonging to the species Selenomonas ruminantium was evaluated by biochemical and PCR analyses targeted at the 16S rRNA operon and lactate dehydrogenase gene. While extremely variable in metabolic characteristics, two different RISA (ribosomal intergenic spacer analysis), and five lactate dehydrogenase gene RFLP profiles were observed among the twelve strains studied. The...
