The Ribosomal Database Project (RDP-II) expanded its rRNA sequence collection and analysis tools. This release enhances microbial community analysis with improved phylogenetic placement and T-RFLP experiment support.

Area of Science:

  • Microbiology
  • Bioinformatics
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • The Ribosomal Database Project (RDP-II) is a crucial resource for ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequence data.
  • Previous versions have provided valuable datasets and analysis tools for researchers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To update and expand the RDP-II database with new rRNA sequences.
  • To enhance existing analysis services and introduce new functionalities for microbial research.

Main Methods:

  • Continued addition of small subunit rRNA sequences to the aligned database.
  • Identification and incorporation of type strain sequences into the prokaryotic alignment.
  • Improvement of existing analysis commands and development of new services.

Main Results:

  • Release 7.1 (September 17, 1999) contains over 10,700 small subunit rRNA sequences.
  • Over 850 type strain sequences were added, bringing the total to 3324 representing 2460 species.
  • Development of a mirror site in Japan and enhanced WWW analysis services.

Conclusions:

  • RDP-II continues to be a vital, expanding resource for microbial genomics.
  • Enhanced analysis services facilitate microbial ecology studies, including phylogenetic placement and T-RFLP analysis.
