Phylogenetic relationships between toxic and non-toxic strains of the genus Microcystis based on 16S to 23S internal transcribed spacer sequence
Open accessAbstract
16S to 23S ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer sequences of 47 strains of the genus Microcystis were determined. Derived maximum likelihood and DNA distance trees indicated that Microcystis can be divided into three clusters. The first cluster included toxic and non-toxic strains, the second only toxic ones, and the third only non-toxic ones. The tree topologies were not necessarily correlated with morphospecies distinction or phycobilin pigment composition, and one genotype may have more than one morphotype. Phylogenetic analysis based on intergenic spacer sequences was thought to be effective for understanding relationships among closely related species and strains.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
