Abstract

SUMMARY

It is proposed that similarity between genetic determinants is the most appropriate criterion for setting up a microbial classification. Genetic homology between organisms can be discovered by biological tests for hybridization, or by physicohemical tests for renaturation between single-stranded DNA's of diverse origin.
