In this study, we evaluated three PCR-based methods for the molecular typing of nonpathogenic Fusarium oxysporum isolates: random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP). The analyses were performed using 64 isolates of F. oxysporum collected from cotton-producing areas in Egypt...
Repetitive element polymorphism-PCR (REP-PCR) is one of the tools that has been used to elucidate genetic diversity of related microorganisms. Using the MB1 primer, REP-PCR fingerprints from 110 Bacillus strains within the "B.cereus group" have identified eighteen distinct categories, while other more distantly related bacterial species fell within six additional categories. All Bacillus...
PCR-RFLP analysis of commonly occurring insertion sequences ISS1-type, IS904 and IS982 in Lactococcus sp. and Leuconostoc sp. was used for the genetic differentiation of 17 strains of lactic acid bacteria. ISS1-type and IS982 were found in all analysed strains while 1S904 was present exclusively in strains belonging to Lactococcus sp. Amplification of ISS1-type IS sequences resulted in formation of...
The obligatory human pathogen, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is the most important etiological factor of tuberculosis. Unfortunately, there is little information about genetic diversity of this pathogen. The main aim of this research was the estimation of genetic diversity of M. tuberculosis on the basis of various categories of DNA markers. The genome of 32 strains were scanned by DNA markers such...
Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis was used to evaluate genetic diversity among 13 soil Pénicillium strains originating from widely dispersed areas. Twenty one of the 34 synthetic random primers were found to identify polymorphism in amplification products. The results show a high level of diversity of RAPD markers among the strains. All the strains could be identified by their characteristic...
The restriction of PCR-amplifïed internal transcribed spacers (ITS) of ribosomal DNA was used to confirm the genetic variation among 22 isolates of Cochliobolus sativus differing in their xylanase production. Results show a high level of diversity of ITS-RFLP markers among the isolates. The molecular parameter used showed that C. sativus isolates reside in three phylogenetic groups. There was observed...
Two typing methods were evaluated, utilizing 62 clinical strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, to assess their usefulness as tools to study the bacterial diversity within this complex group. Genetic diversity was determined by PCR ribotyping and enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC) PCR. By these methods, 9 and 36 genotypes were found, respectively. The result showed that ERIC PCR analysis...
Molecular diversity studies of 19 rhizobia isolates from chickpea were conducted using simple sequence repeats (SSR) and 16S rDNA-RFLP markers. Phenotypic characterization with special reference to salinity and pH tolerance was performed. These isolates were identified as different strains of Mesorhizobium, Rhizobium, Bradyrhizobium, and Agrobacterium. Twenty SSR loci of Mesorhizobium ciceri, distributed...
