[Classification of methylotrophic bacteria according to 5S ribosomal RNA sequencing].
5S ribosomal RNA sequences of 33 strains of methylotrophic bacteria were determined. Tentative phylogenetic tree was constructed using the maximum topological similarity principle. Strains under study can be divided into 7 separate branches consistently with the current classification of methylotrophic bacteria. More extensive tree was also built to show the position of methylotrophic bacteria with respect to non-methylotrophic ones. One can conclude that the in contrast to obligate methane-oxidizing bacteria, facultative methylotrophic bacteria do not comprise phylogenetically separate domain on the tree.
