  • 😷 The taxon name shown here has no assigned risk group, but is the original uncorrected spelling of Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. insidiosus corrig. (McCulloch 1925) Davis et al. 1984, which has a risk group (Swiss Confederation) above 1. These are therefore two spellings of the same name that should be treated identically for practical purposes.
