In the modern era, molecular genetic techniques are crucial in ecological studies, as well as in the classification, typing, and phylogenetic analysis of prokaryotes. These techniques are mainly aimed at whole genome comparisons and PCR-derived experiments, including amplifying the 16S rRNA and othe...
