Abstract

In the present study, the fingerprinting technique, random amplified polymorphic DNA-PCR was evaluated to characterize 13 strains of Lactobacillus brevis, isolated from different vegetable products of South Korea. Two primers i.e. 239 and KAY3 were used. The primer 239 produced bands ranged from 500-4,000 bp and KAY3 primer produced bands with sizes from 600-4,000 bp. Both primers produced thirteen different RAPD profiles. Phylogenetic dendrogram showed that all the isolates could be divided into six major clusters both the primers. However, a few strains of L. brevis had similar profiles and were not well differentiated by RAPD.

Keywords: Lactobacillus brevis, random amplified polymorphic DNA, primer
