Figure 2. Using the NCBI nucleotide BLAST service with the new 16S microbial rRNA database. Top panel. The nucleotide BLAST search form with the 16S microbial database selected. The query sequence (JF340503) is a 16S sequence obtained from an environmental biofilm (PopSet: 330372088). Center panel. BLAST results (RID: CUR81JZY012). The best match is to the 16S ribosomal RNA sequence (NR_025852) from Acidocella facilis strain PW2. The linked BLAST Distance Tree of the results (bottom panel) shows the placement within Acidocella at a glance.
