Burkholderia cenocepacia; biological control; biological nomenclature; databases; genome; genomics; microbiology; opportunistic infection; phenotype; prokaryotic cells; sequence analysis
Abstract:
... Genome analysis of strains placed in the NCBI genome database as Burkholderia cenocepacia defined nine genomic species groups. The largest group (259 strains) corresponds to B. cenocepacia and the second largest group (58 strains) was identified as “Burkholderia servocepacia”, a Burkholderia species classification which has not been validly published. The publication of “B. servocepacia” did not c ...

Abstract:
... Over the last fifteen years, genomics has become fully integrated into prokaryotic systematics. The genomes of most type strains have been sequenced, genome sequence similarity is widely used for delineation of species, and phylogenomic methods are commonly used for classification of higher taxonomic ranks. Additionally, environmental genomics has revealed a vast diversity of as-yet-uncultivated t ...

Abstract:
... BACKGROUND: Species of the genus Bartonella are facultative intracellular alphaproteobacteria with zoonotic potential. Bartonella infections in humans range from mild with unspecific symptoms to life threatening, and can be transmitted via arthropod vectors or through direct contact with infected hosts, although the latter mode of transmission is rare. Among the small mammals that harbour Bartonel ...

Thamnophilidae; biological nomenclature; compliance; publications
Abstract:
... Work on the publication date of Bonnaterre & Vieillot's Tableau encyclopédique et méthodique calls into question the priority of some names in use today. Among these Myrmothera guttataVieillot, 1824, proves to be a junior synonym of a name introduced earlier. The possible reversal of precedence is studied here in compliance with the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. ...

Abstract:
... Tohutō (macrons) or long vowels when used in te reo Māori assist with the correct pronunciation and spelling of words and in providing their meaning. When te reo is used in the formation of botanical names, the International Code of Nomenclature rules state that diacritical signs are to be transcribed into Latin letters; therefore, the long vowel ‘ā’ would become the double vowel ‘aa’.

Along the coastlines of Okinawa, several undescribed species, including those from Neolyngbya, remain unexplored. In this study, two undescribed cyanobacterial species with morphological resemblance to Neolyngbya were identified using a polyphasic appr ...

Abstract:
... Cyanobacteria morphotypes with simple morphology, mainly thin filamentous homocytous strains, comprise a taxonomically complex group and represent a challenge in systematic studies. However, the polyphasic approach applied nowadays to investigate the cyanobacterial diversity has emerged as a powerful tool to undercover cryptic taxa and to set up a more natural classification system. Yet, studies e ...
