Notes:
- Plant pathogenic according to Bull et al. (2007). Publication: Bull CT, De Boer SH, Denny TP, Firrao G, Fischer Le Saux M, Saddler GS, Scortichini M, Stead DE, Takikawa Y. Comprehensive list of names of plant pathogenic bacteria, 1980-2007. Journal of Plant Pathology 2010; 92:551-592.
- The results of morphological, physiological and chemical studies indicate that the type strain of Corynebacterium beticola Abdou 1969 (Approved Lists 1980) is a Gram negative, facultatively anaerobic bacterium which would be assigned to the genus Erwinia as Erwinia herbicola (Löhnis 1911) Dye 1964 (Approved Lists 1980). According to Rule 37a (1) the name Corynebacterium beticola must be changed to Erwinia herbicola [now Pantoea agglomerans (Ewing and Fife 1972) Gavini et al. 1989]. However, this change has not been validly published. Publication: Collins MD, Jones D. Taxonomic studies on Corynebacterium beticola (Abdou). J. Appl. Bacteriol. 1982; 52:229-233.
- The full TRBA 466 classification is: risk group = 2, note = "p".

Parent taxon: Corynebacterium Lehmann and Neumann 1896 (Approved Lists 1980)
