• Notes:
  • 🧕 Yang et al. (2013) assigned this genus to the family Rhodobacteraceae Garrity et al. 2006. Publication: Yang G, Chen M, Zhou S, Liu Z, Yuan Y. Sinorhodobacter ferrireducens gen. nov., sp. nov., a non-phototrophic iron-reducing bacterium closely related to phototrophic Rhodobacter species. Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek 2013; 104:715-724. 🇨🇳
  • 🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Rhodobacter Imhoff et al. 1984. Publication: Huang MH, Zhang DF, Wang HC, He W, Song XR. Description of Rhodobacter flavimaris sp. nov. and proposal of the genera Paenirhodobacter, Sedimentimonas, and Sinirhodobacter as synonyms of Rhodobacter. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2024; 74:6540. 🇨🇳
  • 🚋 The type species of this genus has alternatively been placed in the genus Sinorhodobacter Yang et al. 2018. Publication: Yang G, Chen M, Zhou S, Liu Z, Yuan Y. Sinorhodobacter ferrireducens gen. nov., sp. nov., a non-phototrophic iron-reducing bacterium closely related to phototrophic Rhodobacter species. Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek 2013; 104:715-724. 🇨🇳
  • 🙄 This taxon name is occasionally misprinted (or affected by an OCR error) in some sources as: "Sinirohdobacter".
  • ❗ Sinirhodobacter is the correct name instead if this genus is regarded as a separate genus (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another genus whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority).
  • 🎰 The BRCs most frequently used for deposits in this group are: KCTC: 3; CCTCC: 2; KACC: 2; CGMCC: 1; CFCC: 1; LMG: 1.
