FIG. 3.
Comparative alignment of partial 16S rRNA gene sequences of Brucella canis, Rasbo bacterium, and amplicons derived from dogs 4 to 10. The sequence of the noncoding RNA strand is shown. The numbers correspond to the Escherichia coli numbering scheme. Unless noted in boldface type in the table, all intervening sequences between no. 45 and 207 for all isolates were identical. Dashes (a) indicate the lack of comparable sequence. aP, alpha proteobacterium.
