Reclassification of Sphingobacterium antarcticum Shivaji et al. 1992 as Pedobacter antarcticus comb. nov. and Pedobacter piscium (Takeuchi and Yokota 1993) Steyn et al. 1998 as a later heterotypic synonym of Pedobacter antarcticus

All data previously reported, as well as the results of the present phylogenetic analysis, support that S. antarcticum is clearly a member of the genus Pedobacter, also affiliated with the family Sphingobacteriaceae. We propose that Sphingobacterium antarcticum (corrig. Shivaji et al. 1992) should be reclassified as Pedobacter antarcticus comb. nov.6 p.application/pdfengcc-by (c) Farfán, M. et al., 2014http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/BacterisMicrobiologiaFarmacologiaBacteriaMicrobiologyPharmacologyReclassification of Sphingobacterium antarcticum Shivaji et al. 1992 as Pedobacter antarcticus comb. nov. and Pedobacter piscium (Takeuchi and Yokota 1993) Steyn et al. 1998 as a later heterotypic synonym of Pedobacter antarcticusinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6295982025-01-17info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
