Article Title: Differentiation between Mycobacterium farcinogenes and Mycobacterium senegalense Strains Based on 16S-23S Ribosomal DNA Internal Transcribed Spacer Sequences

doi: 10.1128/JCM.40.2.707-711.2002

Figure Lengend Snippet: Strains and sequences used for analysis of 16S-23S spacer sequences

Article Snippet: The results presented in Fig. show that M. farcinogenes and M. senegalense have identical partial 16S rDNA sequences that distinguish them from representatives of closely related taxa, with the exception of the sorbitol-positive third biovariant of M. fortuitum (strain ATCC 49403); this variant was not included in the present study (the 16S rDNA sequence is shown in reference 17 , and its ITS sequence, which differs from that of M. farcinogenes and M. senegalense, has been recently submitted to the RIDOM database [http://www.ridom.de]).
