Amethod of genetic fingerprinting that relies on the location of small subunit rrna genes on dna fragments is called

 The answer to the question regarding about the type of method of genetic fingerprinting or genetic profiling that relies on the location of small subunit rRNA genes on a DNA fragments is called Ribotyping. Of all the method of DNA fingerprinting or DNA profiling, Ribo typing is the rapid specific method used by different microbiology laboratory to analyze bacterial contamination in food, water and even beverages.

The answer is riboprobing or commonly called as ribotyping .  It is one of RFLP methods or Restriction Fragment-Length Polymorphism methods that exploits genomic DNA restriction fragments utilizing hybridization of probes which targets rRNA operon areas.
