SISP: a Fast Species Identification System for Prokaryotes Based on Total Nucleotide Identity of Whole Genome Sequences

SISP: a Fast Species Identification System for Prokaryotes Based on Total Nucleotide Identity of Whole Genome Sequences

In the genomic era, new techniques and criteria are proposed to improve the traditionally phenotypic and biochemical test–based approaches for prokaryotic species definition. Among them, average nucleotide identity (ANI) mirrors DNA-DNA hybridization and is widely used by the microbial research comm...
