Journal ArticleDOI

The oligonucleotide probe database.

Elizabeth Wheeler Alm, +4 more
- 01 Oct 1996 - 
TL;DR: The Oligonucleotide Probe Database (OPD) is designed and modified to include multiple probe versions and also to provide additional identifying information, and a method of standardizing the nomenclature for oligon nucleotide probes and PCR primers that is both unambiguous and informative is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolutionary relationships among ammonia- and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria.

Andreas P Teske, +5 more
- 01 Nov 1994 - 
TL;DR: The nitrifiers, as a group, apparently are not derived from an ancestral nitrifying phenotype, and consideration of physiology and phylogenetic distribution suggested that nitrite-oxidizing bacteria of the alpha and gamma subdivisions are derived from immediate photosynthetic ancestry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of universal small-subunit rRNA hybridization probes for quantitative molecular microbial ecology studies

Dandan Zheng, +3 more
- 01 Dec 1996 - 
TL;DR: Lower the posthybridization wash stringency for two universal probes evaluated for stability of probe-target duplexes by using rRNA from nine organisms representing the three domains of Bacteria, Archaea, and Eucarya to reduce bias when these probes are used to quantify microbial populations in environmental samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fecal indicator bacteria are abundant in wet sand at freshwater beaches

Elizabeth Wheeler Alm, +2 more
- 01 Sep 2003 - 
TL;DR: Preliminary data show that wet freshwater beach sand is a reservoir of fecal indicator bacteria, and enterococci were most numerous in the 5-10 cm sand stratum and E. coli in the 0-5 cm stratum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cryptic Lineages of the Genus Escherichia

Seth T. Walk, +6 more
- 15 Oct 2009 - 
TL;DR: Evidence that Escherichia fergusonii has evolved at an accelerated rate compared to E. coli is found, suggesting that this species is younger than estimated by the molecular clock method.
