This paper summarizes the structures and characteristics of ITS regions that are extremely variable in copy number,length and sequence per genome. The ITS region can be amplified easily taking advantage of conserved nucleotide stretches at the 5’ of the 16S and 3’ of the 23S gene,and the amplicon can contain different amounts of the 16S rDNA by choosing primers at different conserved areas within this gene. These primers are listed and discussed for perfecting the methodology of ITS. Furthermore,some recent progresses on the taxonomy,identification and community analysis of bacteria by means of ITS in epidemiology,ecology and artificial environment are reviewed,as well,the virtues and limitations of that method are discussed.
