New Insights Into the Threshold Values of Multi-Locus Sequence Analysis, Average Nucleotide Identity and Digital DNA–DNA Hybridization in Delineating Streptomyces Species

Multi-locus sequence analysis (MLSA) has been proved to be a useful method for Streptomyces identification and MLSA distance of 0.007 is considered as the boundary value. However, we found that MLSA distance of 0.007 might be insufficient to act as a threshold according to the correlations among ave...
