Use of repetitive intergenic DNA sequences to classify pathogenic and disease-suppressive streptomyces strains

Article Abstract:

The PCR DNA fingerprinting technique using repetitive intergenic DNA sequences is effective in determining strain identity rapidly. The PCR technique efficiently identifies unique DNA fingerprints of pathogenic and disease-suppressive streptomyces strains. The PCR DNA fingerprints of these strains using BOXA1R primers, rather than the REP1R-I and REP2 primers, are unique, stable and reproducible.
