A molecular technique based on the restriction fragment length polymorphism of the 16S ribosomal genes amplified by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR), referred to as amplified 16S ribosomal DNA restriction analysis (ARDRA), was designed to identify 19 Avibacterium paragallinarum strains isolated from infraorbital sinus and nasal turbinate bone samples of broiler chickens, breeders, and laying hens from different regions of Peru. The 16S rDNA was amplified by PCR using a pair of bacterial universal primers and restriction analysis of 16S rDNA sequences was done to select endonucleases with the highest number of cutting points inside the 16S rDNA. The DNA patterns with DdeI and RsaI endonucleases were identical for the 19 A. paragallinarum strains, but differed from those obtained for Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale, a bacterium with a high genetic and phenotypic resemblance to A. paragallinarum, as well as from Escherichia coli, a bacterium associated with infectious coryza. The ARDRA method could prove to be valuable for molecular identification of A. paragallinarum, a microorganism implicated in respiratory diseases in commercial birds.

D002645	Chickens	Common name for the species Gallus gallus, the domestic fowl, in the family Phasianidae, order GALLIFORMES. It is descended from the red jungle fowl of SOUTHEAST ASIA.	Gallus gallus,Gallus domesticus,Gallus gallus domesticus,Chicken
D004262	DNA Restriction Enzymes	Enzymes that are part of the restriction-modification systems. They catalyze the endonucleolytic cleavage of DNA sequences which lack the species-specific methylation pattern in the host cell's DNA. Cleavage yields random or specific double-stranded fragments with terminal 5'-phosphates. The function of restriction enzymes is to destroy any foreign DNA that invades the host cell. Most have been studied in bacterial systems, but a few have been found in eukaryotic organisms. They are also used as tools for the systematic dissection and mapping of chromosomes, in the determination of base sequences of DNAs, and have made it possible to splice and recombine genes from one organism into the genome of another.
