- 📧 The e-mail address of the corresponding author given in the effective publication is not functional any more.
- ❗ Rhizobium petrolearium 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 Rhizobium.
- 😷 The risk group for Germany has been imported on 2023-10-29. The full classification is: risk group = 1.
- 🎓 Name mentioned 6 times in PubMed until 2024-03-27.
- 🧍 The epithet is petrolearium. So, the correct etymology must be "Gr. n. petra, rock", not "L. n. petra, rock" as cited in the paper Zhang et al. 2012. Publication: Euzeby JP.
