A modified HiCEP method was applied for the identification of strain-specific genes by comparing two different strains. Rhodococcus erythropolis JCM3201 and NI86/21 were compared and 11 genes were identified as NI86/21-specific genes. %U http://www.benthamscience.com/open/tobiotj/articles/V001/66TOBIOTJ.htm
