Popis: Phylogenetic relationships among a number of strains belonging to the genusPseudomonaswere explored by the use of in vitro deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) hybridization. The fluorescent nomenspecies (P. fluorescens, P. putida, P. aeruginosa, P. cichorii, P. syringae, and related species), as well as the nonfluorescent speciesP. stutzeri, P. mendocina, P. alcaligenes, andP. pseudoalcaligenes, were shown to belong to a single DNA homology complex which is isolated from otherPseudomonasspecies that have been studied [P. cepacia(=P. multivorans),P. caryophylli, P. marginata(=P. alliicola),P. pseudomallei, P. acidovorans, P. testosteroni, P. solanacearum, P. diminuta, P. facilis, P. delafieldii, P. saccharophila, P. palleronii]. A limited numerical analysis of the phenotypic properties of the examined strains supported, with some exceptions, their previous allocation to nomenspecies and biotypes. The internal structure and nomenclature of the “P. fluorescenshomology complex” are discussed.
