Class Microbiology
Microorganism Classification:
Based on phenotypic and metabolic behaviour
Microorganisms named using the binomial nomenclature after Linnaeus
Systemic Nomenclature:
Binomial system used for bacteria/ fungi/ protozoa and viruses
Genus first (Capitals) species second (lower case)
Name is written in italics or is underlined
Phylogenetic Relationships:
Contains gene sequence of 16S or 18S ribosomal RNA, allowing these
relationships to be calculated
Gene of the rRNA can be amplified
Possible differences can be discovered and compared using computers
ED- Evolutionary difference
Viruses:
Microorganism Classification 1
