Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeny and identification of Pantoea species associated with plants, humans and the natural environment based on multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA)
Carrie Brady,Ilse Cleenwerck,Stephanus N. Venter,Marc Vancanneyt,Jean Swings,Teresa A. Coutinho +5 more
TL;DR: Multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) of partial nucleotide sequences of the genes gyrB, rpoB, atpD and infB can be used for classification, identification and phylogenetic analyses of Pantoea strains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pantoea ananatis: an unconventional plant pathogen.
TL;DR: P. ananatis causes disease symptoms in a wide range of economically important agricultural crops and forest tree species worldwide and is regarded as an emerging pathogen based on the increasing number of reports of diseases occurring on previously unrecorded hosts in different parts of the world.
Journal Article
An overview of biofilm formation in distribution systems and its impact on the deterioration of water quality
TL;DR: The impact of biofilms present in water distribution systems on the microbial quality of potable water is reported in this paper, where the issues covered include the composition of bioflims, factors governing their formation and the effect and significance of bio-films on drinking water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Whole Genome Analyses Suggests that Burkholderia sensu lato Contains Two Additional Novel Genera (Mycetohabitans gen. nov., and Trinickia gen. nov.): Implications for the Evolution of Diazotrophy and Nodulation in the Burkholderiaceae.

TL;DR: A phylogenomic approach based on a maximum likelihood analysis of conserved genes from more than 100 Burkholderia sensu lato species supported the existence of two distinct and unique clades, which sustain the description of two novel genera Mycetohabitans gen. and Trinickia gen. nov.

TL;DR: The authors discuss the issue of naming uncultivated prokaryotic microorganisms, which currently do not have a formal nomenclature system due to a lack of type material or cultured representatives, and propose two recommendations including the recognition of DNA sequences as type material.
