Chapter 28.5, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To know: the reason behind alpha-proteobacteria being selected as the outgroup.
Introduction: An outgroup is defined as a group that is distantly related to the other groups being studied. The ingroup is the more related group that shares similar sister taxa and is different from outgroups.

Question -Esther is completing her PhD project in bacterial distribution in mangroves and theirbiochemical characteristics. She manages to isolate and identify around 80 differentbacterial species from the various mangrove sites. She preserves the isolates by growingthem on a tryptic soy agar supplemented with sea salt and re-streaks them every week. After8 months she notices that some of the isolates have changed their genetic sequence whencompared to the initially identified sequence. Using a diagram explain what could havehappened to the isolates when she re-streaked them repeatedly and recommend a solutionto prevent this from occurring in the future and give explanation why it is moreadvantageous.
Microbiologists debate the use of biochemical similarities and cell features as a way of determining the taxonomic relationships among prokaryotes. Explain why some microbiologists believe these similarities and differences are a powerful taxonomic indicator, whereas others think they are not very useful for that purpose.
