GENOMOSYSTEMATICS OF RICKETTSIAE

The definition of the term genome was given by the German botanist G. Winkler almost one hundred years ago in 1920. A genome  definition for bacterial (rickettsia) with a single chromosome was  recently presented from the perspective of information theory,  biology and bioinformatics as the informat...

GENOMOSYSTEMATICS OF RICKETTSIAE
description The definition of the term genome was given by the German botanist G. Winkler almost one hundred years ago in 1920. A genome  definition for bacterial (rickettsia) with a single chromosome was  recently presented from the perspective of information theory,  biology and bioinformatics as the information chain of nucleotides.  The systematics of rickettsiae (obligate intracellular microorganisms) is based on a limited number of phenotypic characters.  Classifications built on the analysis of genes, fragments of genomes  and their concatenations cause discussion.
