Detection of algicidal bacteria FISHERIES SCIENCE 365 strain, corresponding to Escherichia coli sequence positions 122–142 (R1) for strain R, 209–230 (S1 and K2) for strains S and K, 210–231 (D1) for strain D, 457–478 (S2 and K1B) for strains S and K, 645–664 (D2) for strain D, and 839–860 (R5B) for strain R. Primer specificities with reference to published sequences were checked with the program9 at the DNA Data Bank of Japan, Shizuoka. There were identical sequences of K1B, D1 and D2 regions in some algicidal bacteria currently deposited in public databases. One of these algicidal bacteria, strain E401, shared high levels of DNA relatedness to the strain D exceeding 70% of the DNA–DNA reassociation value, confirming their synonymy. 10 Homology searching for other positions identified no sequence in bacterial 16S rDNA. We therefore chose these positions as specific sequences of PCR primers to selectively detect each bacterial strain using the closely related gamma 3 subclass of the Proteobacteria, which were obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC), Rockville, MD, USA and the Institute of Applied Microbiology (IAM), University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan.The specificity of the PCR primers designed from the specific sequence of 16S rDNA was tested for detecting the algicidal strains by means of PCR amplification under the conditions described above, except that the annealing temperature for K strain-specific primers was 50 C, and agarose gel electrophoresis was performed with 2% gel. The PCR amplification of the 16S rDNA of the selected Proteobacterial strains using the set of bacterial universal 8F and 1512R primers resulted in the production of a single band of about 1.5 kbp from all strains tested, but resulted in specific products only, which corresponded to the predicted size of the partial 16S rDNA of each algicidal strain, from the strains S, K, D, and R with the set of S1 (5′-TAGCTCACGCCGAAAGAGAA-3′) and S2 (5′-CAGCTGCAAGTTATTAACTTAC-3′) primers, K2 (5′-AGGCTCTGGCGCAAAGAAAG-3′) and K1B (5′-GTTGGGTATTAACCAACAACCC-3′) primers, D1 (5′-GGCTCTCGCTAGAAGAGAAG-3′) and D2 (5′-TCTAGATGACTCTAGTCTGA-3′) primers, and R1 (5′-CTTGGGAATCTGCCCGAAGGA-3′) and R5B (5′-CTTCGCAAAACCGTTCTTACG-3′) primers, respectively (Fig. 2).
