ABSTRACTThe 16S rRNA gene has hyper variable region and different for one bacterial species to another. The gene is being used as research tool to help for accurate identification of bacteria in many fields in Indonesia. As a useful tool, the 16S rRNA gene sequence is important as to explore the potencies of a bacterial species. Sequencing of this gene is very useful for research in clinical study, fisheries, marine science, agricultural science, and animal husbandry in Indonesia. Keywords: 16S
