The PCR assay resulted in the amplification of 300 bp
band (16S rRNA) and 870 bp band (lctO) that were detected
in all S. iniae isolated from the present study including the
S. iniae reference strain. Examples of the amplified band are
shown in Figure 1 (lanes 3 and 4). No amplification occurred
when phylogenetically related bacteria was used as the
template.
