Applications of the rep‐PCR DNA fingerprinting technique to study microbial diversity, ecology and evolution

4 Feb 2009

Abstract excerpt

A large number of repetitive DNA sequences are found in multiple sites in the genomes of numerous bacteria, archaea and eukarya. While the functions of many of these repetitive sequence elements are unknown, they have proven to be useful as the basis of several powerful tools for use in molecular diagnostics, medical microbiology, epidemiological analyses and environmental microbiology. The repetitive...
