Notes:
-
🧕 Mao et al. (2012) assigned this genus to the family Rhodobacteraceae Garrity et al. 2006.
Publication:
Mao Y, Wei J, Zheng Q, Xiao N, Li Q, Fu Y, Wang Y, Jiao N. Roseibacterium beibuensis sp. nov., a novel member of roseobacter clade isolated from Beibu Gulf in the South China Sea. Curr Microbiol 2012; 65:568-574.
- 😢 The terminology used by the authors is in line with many other taxonomic studies and does not negatively affect their main results; some improvements may nevertheless be possible. Contrasting the term "chemotaxonomic" with "phenotypic" is not recommended. Using the term "phylogenetic data" (or equivalent) for sequence data is not advocated. See the LPSN phylogeny page for details. Publication: Göker M. What can genome analysis offer for bacteria? In: Bridge P, Smith D, Stackebrandt E (eds), Trends in the systematics of bacteria and fungi, CAB International, Wallingford, 2021, p. 255-281.
- 🎰 The BRCs most frequently used for deposits in this group are: CCUG: 1; DSM: 1; KCTC: 1.
