Deoxyribonucleic acid homologies of some so-called "Hydrogenomonas" species. 1972

E Ralston, and N J Palleroni, and M Doudoroff

Evidence based on deoxyribonucleic acid homology supports the abandonment of the genus Hydrogenomonas. Pseudomonas facilis (formerly Hydrogenomonas facilis) is closely related to the nonautotrophic species P. delafieldii. P. facilis and Alcaligenes eutrophus (often called H. eutropha) are not related to each other or to other hydrogen bacteria and pseudomonads studied.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009693	Nucleic Acid Hybridization	Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.
