Notes:
- 😷 The risk group for Swiss Confederation has been imported on 2024-02-01. The full classification is: risk group = 1, note = "PP". — The risk group for Germany has been imported on 2023-10-29. The full classification is: risk group = 1, note = "p". — 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 7 times in PubMed until 2024-03-28.
- 🙆 This name is on the List of Recommended Names for bacteria of medical importance (LoRN) as the name to be applied to this species. The name is on LoRN because of the recorded risk group of other species in the genus.
- 🧍 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.
- 🧍 Pseudomonas ficuserectae Goto 1983, Pseudomonas amygdali Psallidas and Panagopoulos 1975 (Approved Lists 1980), Pseudomonas meliae Ogimi 1981, and Pseudomonas savastanoi (Janse 1982) Gardan et al. 1992 are members of a single genomospecies. Thus, these species should be considered synonymous and the correct name for this species should be Pseudomonas amygdali. Unfortunately, Pseudomonas amygdali, as delineated by DNA-DNA hybridization, could not be differentiated from other genomospecies by phenotypic tests. So the authors do not formally propose nomenclatural changes. Publication: Gardan L, Shafik H, Belouin S, Broch R, Grimont F, Grimont PA. DNA relatedness among the pathovars of Pseudomonas syringae and description of Pseudomonas tremae sp. nov. and Pseudomonas cannabina sp. nov. (ex Sutic and Dowson 1959). Int J Syst Bacteriol 1999; 49:469-478.

Parent taxon: Pseudomonas Migula 1894 (Approved Lists 1980)

Assigned by: Goto M. Pseudomonas ficuserectae sp. nov., the causal agent of bacterial leaf spot of Ficus erecta Thunb. Int. J. Syst. Bacteriol. 1983; 33:546-550.
