摘要：

Well-defined Legionella pneumophila strains were analyzed by amplification of variable genomic regions with arbitrary and repeat sequence primers. Clinical and environmental outbreak-related isolates showed closely related amplicon patterns. Eleven strains of unrelated origins displayed 10 distinct patterns. Fingerprinting of L. pneumophila by polymerase chain reaction appeared to have the potential of being as epidemiologically useful as other genotypic methods.
