Molecular Identification and Phylogenetic Characterization of Lignocellulose-Degrading Gut Bacteria Isolated From the Eri Silkworm (Samia cynthia ricini)
Objective: The present study was aimed at identifying and characterising lignocellulose-degrading bacterial isolates from the gut of the eri silkworm, Samia cynthia ricini, by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. Methods: Genomic DNA was isolated from six bacterial isolates and PCR amplified for the 16S...
