Evaluation of four molecular typing methodologies as tools for determining taxonomy relations and for identifying species among Yersinia isolates.

Abstract excerpt

In the last few decades, molecular typing has become an important tool in taxonomic, phylogenetic and identification studies of numerous groups of bacteria, including the yersiniae. In this study, Enterobacterial Repetitive Intergenic Consensus PCR (ERIC-PCR), Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE), 16S rRNA gene sequencing and Multilocus Sequence Analysis (MLSA) were performed to determine the ability of these...
