Procaryote phylogeny IV: concerning the phylogenetic status of a photosynthetic bacterium

L Zablen et al. J Mol Evol. .

Abstract

The 16S ribosomal RNA (30S subunit) of Rhodopseudomonas spheroides has been characterized in terms of T1 ribonuclease digestion products. This "fingerprint" ultimately permits the placement of R. spheroides into a detailed procaryotic phylogenetic tree. Given the number of major procaryotic lines that have been characterized in these terms to date, one can tentatively place the Athiorhodaceae closer to the Vibrio-Enteric group than to the Bacillaceae or Cyanophyta.
