Abstract excerpt
The technique of DNA-DNA molecular hybridization was used to demonstrate the absence of genome similarity between Alcaligenes faecalis and gram-negative bacteria belonging to the genera Pseudomonas, Enterobacterium, Comamonas producing alkalis, and vibrions. Some similarity in the polynucleotide sequences was found between the DNA of the reper strain of Alcaligenes faecalis 45 (5--10% of homology) and the DNA of...
