Numerical analysis of fatty acid patterns of coryneform bacteria and related taxa

TL;DR: A numerical study of the fatty acid patterns of 263 reference strains belonging to the genera Arthrobacter, Aureobacterium, Brevibacterium and Cellulomonas found that strains of the species Corynebacterium glutamicum, CoryneBacterium ammoniagenes, and Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae could be found in distinct clusters, based on quantitative differ...
Journal ArticleDOI

The Genus Nocardiopsis Represents a Phylogenetically Coherent Taxon and a Distinct Actinomycete Lineage: Proposal of Nocardiopsaceae fam. nov.

TL;DR: The phylogenetic position and the morpho- and chemotaxonomic properties of Nocardiopsis species support the creation of a family for the genus NOCardiopsis, Nocardopsaceae fam.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel Diagnostic Algorithm for Identification of Mycobacteria Using Genus-Specific Amplification of the 16S-23S rRNA Gene Spacer and Restriction Endonucleases

TL;DR: A novel genus-specific PCR for mycobacteria with simple identification to the species level by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) was established using the 16S-23S ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) spacer as a target, showing high intraspecies sequence stability and good discriminative power.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeny of the Genus Nocardia Based on Reassessed 16S rRNA Gene Sequences Reveals Underspeciation and Division of Strains Classified as Nocardia asteroides into Three Established Species and Two Unnamed Taxons

TL;DR: A phylogenetic analysis of 74 representative strains of the genus Nocardia was sequenced in order to provide a molecular basis for accurate species identification and to unravel confusing phenotypic data obtained in the past for unresolved groups of strains that definitely belong to separate taxons from a phylogenetic point of view.
Journal ArticleDOI

A numerical classification of the genera Streptomyces and STreptoverticillium using miniaturized physiological tests

TL;DR: The suggestion that members of the genus Streptoverticillium be reclassified into the genusStreptomyces is supported on the basis of numerical phenetic and (published) molecular genetic and chemotaxonomic data.
