ABSTRACT

Phylogenetic and chemoteaxonomic analyses indicate that Brevibacterium oxydans is closely related to species of the genus Microbacterium, namely Microbacterium liquefaciens, Microbacterium luteolum and Microbacterium saperdae. DNA-DNA reassociation values of less than 60% between Brevibacterium oxydans and these three Microbacterium species support the distinctness of this miclclassified Brevibacterium species, which is reclassified as Microbacterium oxydans comb. nov.

Key Words: Microbacterium oxydans • Brevibacterium oxydans • 16S rDNA analysis
