Evaluation of the Integrated Database Network System (IDNS) SmartGene Software for Analysis of 16S rRNA Gene Sequences for Identification of Nocardia Species

Year: 2010

Type: article

Abstract: 16S rRNA gene sequences of 102 Nocardia isolates were analyzed using the Integrated Database Network System (IDNS) SmartGene centroid database. A total of 76% of the isolates were correctly identified. Discordant identifications were due to inadequate centroid length (3 species), inaccurate or insufficient entries in the public databases (5 species), and heterogeneous sequences among members of a species (1 species).
