Two Distinct Mechanisms Cause Heterogeneity of 16S rRNA
TL;DR: To investigate the frequency of heterogeneity among the multiple 16S rRNA genes within a single microorganism, direct sequencing patterns revealed the existence of 136 heterogeneous loci among a total of 33 strains, suggesting that at least two mechanisms, possibly misincorporation during DNA replication and horizontal gene transfer, cause rRNA heterogeneity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of the variable region in 16S rDNA to create an index for rapid species identification in the genus Streptomyces
TL;DR: It was concluded that short nucleotide sequences bearing the variable alpha region are useful for Streptomyces species identification.
