Biology Terminology: Bacteria, Domains, Classification, and Identification, Quizzes of Bacteriology

Definitions for various terms related to bacteria, domains, classification, and identification methods such as slide agglutination test, phage typing, dichotomous key, nucleic acid hybridization, cladogram, fluorescent in situ hybridization (fish), binomial nomenclature, taxa, taxonomy, genera, domain of giraffes, domain of the microbe causing anthrax, domain of mushrooms, prokaryotes without peptidoglycan, fame, southern blotting, elisha, and fish. It also mentions bergey's manual and phage typing for tracing epidemiology.
