Abstract excerpt
Thirteen bacterial strains of Xenorhabdus and 14 strains of Photorhabdus originating from a wide range of geographical and nematode host sources were typed by analyzing 16S rRNA gene (rDNA) restriction patterns obtained after digestion of PCR-amplified 16S rDNAs. Eight tetrameric restriction endo...
