Partial sequences of the recN gene (1249 bp), which encodes a recombination and repair
protein, were analysed to determine the phylogenetic relationship and identification of …

Phylogenetic analysis and species identification of members of the genus Streptococcus
were carried out using partial sequence comparison of the 16S rRNA gene (1468–1478 bp) …

The rnpB gene is universally present in bacterial species and encodes the RNA subunit of
endoribonuclease P. In this study, rnpB was sequenced in 50 type strains and 29 additional …

A collection of 267 consecutively isolated Streptococcus anginosus strains was screened for
the prevalence of previously described'motile'strains by hybridization with oligonucleotide …

Strains currently classified as Streptococcus anginosus include strains previously identified
as Streptococcus constellatus (Prevot 1924) Holdeman and Moore 1974, Streptococcus …

The genus Streptococcus comprises many important pathogens that impact human and
animal health. Despite their widespread relevance, accurate classification and methods to …

Alternative phylogenies for the genus Streptococcus have been proposed due to uncertainty
about the among-species group relationships. Here, we performed a phylogenetic analysis …

The sequence diversity of groESL genes among Streptococcus bovis group isolates was
analysed, including five reference strains and 36 clinical isolates. Phylogenetic analysis of …

We determined the 16S rRNA sequences of the type strains of Streptococcus mitis and
Streptococcus gordonii and calculated the phylogenetic distances between those organisms …

Background Streptococcus is an economically important genus as a number of species
belonging to this genus are human and animal pathogens. The genus has been divided into …
