Genome Sequencing

Genome Sequencing Microbiology has entered the realm of genome sequencing. This biological revolution is opening up new dimensions in our view of life. In 1995, a report on the entire DNA sequence for the genome of the bacteria Haemophilus influenzae was published . Although the genomes for a number of viruses had been completed before this, H. influenzae was the first free-living organism to have it's genome sequenced, and as such, this report remains a biological milestone. …showed first 75 words of 1696 total…

Developing microbial phylogeny is not just the long awaited completion of the Darwinian program. It increases the current time span of evolution by almost an order of magnitude. It is possible that it will even revolutionise the way we view selection. Rather than providing the few missing links, bacterial evolution is indeed itself the puzzle and the 'Pandora's box' of phylogeny has only just been opened.
