• Notes:
  • 📠 This subspecies was automatically created by the valid publication of Streptomyces globisporus subsp. flavofuscus (Kudrina 1957) Pridham et al. 1958 (Approved Lists 1980) according to rule 40d. Publication: Pridham TG, Hesseltine CW, Benedict RG. A guide for the classification of streptomycetes according to selected groups; placement of strains in morphological sections. Appl Microbiol 1958; 6:52-79.
  • 📠 This subspecies was automatically created by the valid publication of Streptomyces globisporus subsp. caucasicus (Kudrina 1957) Pridham et al. 1958 (Approved Lists 1980) according to rule 40d. Publication: Pridham TG, Hesseltine CW, Benedict RG. A guide for the classification of streptomycetes according to selected groups; placement of strains in morphological sections. Appl Microbiol 1958; 6:52-79.
  • ❗ Streptomyces globisporus subsp. globisporus is the correct name instead if this subspecies is regarded as a separate subspecies (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another subspecies whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority) within a separate species Streptomyces globisporus within a separate genus Streptomyces.
  • 😷 The risk group for Canada has been imported on 2024-02-27. The full classification is: risk group = 1, note = "Security sensitive biological agent: No - Terrestrial animal pathogen under Canadian Food Inspection Agency authority: No". — The risk group for Swiss Confederation has been imported on 2024-02-01. The full classification is: risk group = 1. — The risk group for Germany has been imported on 2023-10-29. The full classification is: risk group = 1. — 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.
  • 🙆 This name is on the List of Recommended Names for bacteria of medical importance (LoRN) as the name to be applied to this subspecies. The name is on LoRN because of the recorded risk group of the genus.
  • 🧍 The original authorship, (Krassilnikov 1941) Waksman 1953, was corrected according to the new Rule 40d. Publication: Garrity GM, Labeda DP, Oren A.
