Identification and Differentiation of Microorganisms by Phenotypic and Molecular Approach
Phenotypic identification versus molecular identification: types of characteristics and
techniques. Taxonomic resolution of a technique. Types of phenotypic
characteristics used in bacteriology. Advantages of identification systems
based on molecular data. Genome size and molar G+C content. Genomic methods of
differentiation: total DNA restriction polymorphisms (macrorestriction);
PCR-based methods (RAPD, MSP-PCR); sequence analysis (MLST). The concept of
"fingerprinting." Simpson's diversity index.
