Molecular Microbial Ecology Manual

TL;DR: The state-of-the-art methods described in MMEM-II have not only been provided by experts in the field, but in most cases by the laboratories that actually first developed and applied the methods, thus providing the MM EM-II user with unique first-hand tips and insight.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of repetitive (repetitive extragenic palindromic and enterobacterial repetitive intergeneric consensus) sequences and the polymerase chain reaction to fingerprint the genomes of Rhizobium meliloti isolates and other soil bacteria.

TL;DR: Isolates which had been postulated to beclosely related bymultilocus enzyme electrophoresis alsorevealed similar REP andERICPCR patterns, suggesting that theREP andERicPCR sequences are closely related.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genes Galore: A Summary of Methods for Accessing Results from Large-Scale Partial Sequencing of Anonymous Arabidopsis cDNA Clones

TL;DR: The more than 13,400 plant ESTs that are currently available provide a new resource that will facilitate progress in many areas of plant biology and are illustrated by a description of the results obtained from analysis of 1500 Arabidopsis ESTs from a cDNA library prepared from equal portions of poly(A+) mRNA from etiolated seedlings, roots, leaves, and flowering inflorescence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Specific genomic fingerprints of phytopathogenic Xanthomonas and Pseudomonas pathovars and strains generated with repetitive sequences and PCR

TL;DR: The rep-PCR technique appears to be a rapid, simple, and reproducible method to identify and classify Xanthomonas and Pseudomonas strains, and it may be a useful diagnostic tool for these important plant pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI

The use of transposon Tn5 mutagenesis in the rapid generation of correlated physical and genetic maps of DNA segments cloned into multicopy plasmids--a review.

TL;DR: The properties of transposon Tn5 that render it useful for in vivo mutagenesis of cloned DNA sequences are reviewed and a methods section is included which outlines precisely how to carry out transposition frequency, insertional specificity, polarity and stability of Tn 5 insertion mutations.
