| taxonomy of haemolytic and/or proteolytic strains of the genus acinetobacter with the proposal of acinetobacter courvalinii sp. nov. (genomic species 14 sensu bouvet & jeanjean), acinetobacter dispersus sp. nov. (genomic species 17), acinetobacter modestus sp. nov., acinetobacter proteolyticus sp. nov. and acinetobacter vivianii sp. nov. | we aimed to define the taxonomic status of 40 haemolytic and/or proteolytic strains of the genus acinetobacter which were previously classified into five putative species termed as genomic species 14bj (n=9), genomic species 17 (n=9), taxon 18 (n=7), taxon 19 (n=6) and taxon 20 (n=9). the strains were recovered mostly from human clinical specimens or soil and water ecosystems and were highly diverse in geographical origin and time of isolation. comparative analysis of the rpob and gyrb gene sequ ... | 2016 | 26822020 |
