RNase P RNA gene (rnpB) phylogeny of Hemoplasmas and other Mycoplasma species.

ABSTRACT: Partial sequences of the RNase P RNA gene (rnpB) were obtained from a number of hemoplasmas and other Mycoplasma species. Phylogenetic analysis of these sequences showed that all hemoplasmas were present within a single clade and were most closely related to Mycoplasma fastidiosum, similar to the results found with 16S rRNA gene phylogeny.
