| genus- and species-specific identification of mycoplasmas by 16s rrna amplification. | systematic computer alignment of mycoplasmal 16s rrna sequences allowed the identification of variable regions with both genus- and species-specific sequences. species-specific sequences of mycoplasma collis were elucidated by asymmetric amplification and dideoxynucleotide sequencing of variable regions, using primers complementary to conserved regions of 16s rrna. primers selected for mycoplasma pneumoniae, m. hominis, m. fermentans, ureaplasma urealyticum, m. pulmonis, m. arthritidis, m. neuro ... | 1992 | 1381174 |
