Notes:
-
⏲ According to Bernard et al. (2016), this species is a later heterotypic synonym of Brevibacterium ravenspurgense Mages et al. 2009.
Publication:
Bernard KA, Pacheco AL, Burdz T, Wiebe D, Huynh C, Bonner C, German GJ, Bernier AM. Brevibacterium massiliense (Roux and Raoult 2009) is a later heterotypic synonym of Brevibacterium ravenspurgense (Mages, Frodl, Bernard and Funke 2009), using whole-genome sequence analysis as a comparative tool. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2016; 66:4440-4444.
- ❗ Brevibacterium massiliense is the correct name instead if this species is regarded as a separate species (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another species whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority) within a separate genus Brevibacterium.
- 🧬 The phylogenomic assignment score of this taxon is 0.02754 (N = 2).
- 😷 The risk group for Germany has been imported on 2023-10-29. The full classification is: risk group = 1, note = "+". — If in doubt, use the risk group given in the regulations for your country and, if these are not available, use the risk group given in the catalogue of the culture collection from which you have obtained or intend to obtain the strain.
- 🎓 Name mentioned 4 times in PubMed until 2024-03-27.
