Restriction endonuclease digestion of total purified genomic deoxyribonucleic acid gives rise to deoxyribonucleic acid fragments of discrete sizes. These can be separated by one-dimensional agarose gel electrophoresis. A unique banding pattern (fingerprint) is obtained for each actinomycete wild-type strain tested. These fingerprints are useful for recognizing a given wild-type strain and its derivatives, but cannot be used for species characterization.
