Exercise 3
"Taxonomy at the click of a mouse  start at http://ijs.sgmjournals.org/misc/related.shtml and browse around! How many validly described Burkholderia, Ralstonia and Pandoraea species are there now?
Exercise 4
RIDOM - Ribosomal Differentiation of Medical Microorganisms http://www.ridom-rdna.de/
- retrieve sequence AJ239304 from GenBank
- using RIDOM, determine from which species this sequence comes
Exercise 5
Burkholderia genomics : compile a list of all Burkholderia genomes that are being sequenced (provide source, GC content, genome size and estimated no. of genes for as much genomes as possible) Â suggestion : start at http://www.genomesonline.org or http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/services/GenomeAtlas/
Exercise 6
What are the closest phylogenetic neighbours of strain R-23533? The accession no. of its 16S rRNA sequence is AJ871398. Draw a tree of this sequence and the sequence of the 16S rRNA gene of the 8 most related species (not sequences).
