Abstract

Synthetic oligonucleotide probes specific for vagococci were designed from 16S rRNA sequence data. Molecular hybridizations with PCR-amplified rDNA targets provided an unequivocal means of differentiating vagococci from related lactic acid bacteria (eg. Carnobacterium, Enterococcus, Lactococcus) and identification at the generic and species levels.
