Abstract excerpt
Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) was tested as an alternative to the DNA-DNA hybridization technique (DDH) to delineate genomospecies and the phylogenetic structure within the genus Frankia. Forty Frankia strains, including representatives of seven DDH genomospecies, were typed in order to infer current genome mispairing (CGM) and evolutionary genomic distance (EGD). The constructed phylogeny...
