The variability of the 16S rRNA gene in bacterial genomes and its consequences for bacterial community analyses.
16S ribosomal RNA currently represents the most important target of study in bacterial ecology. Its use for the description of bacterial diversity is, however, limited by the presence of variable copy numbers in bacterial genomes and sequence variation within closely related taxa or within a genome....
