Abstract:
To better describe the community structure of sulfate-reducing bacteria in environmental systems, we compared several dissimilatory sulfite reductase (dsr) primer sets for terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism application. A new reverse primer that increased allelic diversity estimates up to 5-fold was applied to hydrocarbon seep samples to examine the relationship between guild activity and diversity.
