The present disclosure provides methods for molecular fingerprinting for the characterization and identification of organisms. More specifically, in one aspect the present invention provides a method of identifying an organism in a sample comprising: (a) providing a sample comprising said organism, said organism comprising at least one nucleic acid; (b) combining said sample or the at least one nucleic acid therefrom with an amplification mix comprising at least one labeled oligonucleotide primer; (c) generating at least one labeled amplification product from the at least one nucleic acid of said organism using a nucleotide amplification technique employing said at least one labeled oligonucleotide primer; (d) combining said at least one labeled amplification product with products of a DNA sequencing reaction to create a separation mix; and (e) separating said separation mix on the basis of oligonucleotide length in a fluorescent DNA sequencing instrument to generate a sequence embedded fingerprint pattern for said organism.
