摘要
16S rDNAs amplified by PCR from 22 hyperthermophilic methanococci isolated from deep-sea hydrothermal vents were compared with those of the six type strains of the genus Methanococcus by RFLP analysis. Restriction fragments obtained with HaeIII enabled four of the type species to be distinguished. Restrictions with Hhal, BstUI and Mspl were necessary to differentiate Methanococcus jannaschii and Methanococcus fervens. The results indicate that the 16S rDNA PCR-RFLP method provides a rapid and reliable tool for the identification of newly isolated hyperthermophilic Methanococcus spp.
