##BLAST 16S rDNA sequence  Begin by navigating to the Standard Nucleotide BLAST at NCBI:  http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi?PROGRAM=blastn&PAGE\_TYPE=BlastSearch&LINK_LOC=blasthome http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi?PROGRAM=blastn&PAGE_TYPE=BlastSearch&LINK_LOC=blasthome  Paste in your Sanger consensus sequence. We recommend checking the box to exclude Uncultured/environmental sample sequences since these will not be informative for identification. Be sure the nucleotide collection (nr/nt) is selected under database and click the BLAST button.
