Journal ArticleDOI
The quantitative measurement of DNA hybridization from renaturation rates.
TL;DR: A new method is proposed to measure relatedness amongst bacteria, based on renaturation rate determinations of DNA types and their mixture, and the advantages are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Determination of Molecular Weight of Bacterial Genome DNA from Renaturation Rates
TL;DR: A new method is described for the determination of the total molecular weight of haploid genome DNA based on initial optical renaturation rate measurements of precisely known concentrations of fragmented DNA that appears to offer advantages by its simplicity, rapidity and reproducibility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogenophaga, a new genus of hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria that includes Hydrogenophaga flava comb. nov. (formerly Pseudomonas flava), Hydrogenophaga palleronii (formerly Pseudomonas palleronii), Hydrogenophaga pseudoflava (formerly Pseudomonas pseudoflava and Pseudomonas carboxydoflava), and Hydrogenophaga taeniospiralis (formerly Pseudomonas taeniospiralis)

TL;DR: The results show that these five yellow-pigmented hydrogen-oxidizing Pseudomonas species are more closely related to each other than to other taxa belonging to the acidovorans rRNA complex.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Biochemical Test for Crown Gall Bacteria
M. J. Bernaerts,J. De Ley +1 more
TL;DR: A test based on this property, which is very simple, can be carried out in any phytopathological laboratory with ordinary glassware and chemicals, gives a result after 1–2 days and is, so far as it can judge from the present experience, limited to members of the genus Agrobacterium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification and grouping of bacteria by numerical analysis of their electrophoretic protein patterns.
Karel Kersters,J. De Ley +1 more
TL;DR: Improved methods for the identification and grouping of bacteria by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of soluble proteins are described and the results were much more reproducible than any described previously.
