Numerical Taxonomy and Deoxyribonucleic Acid Reassociation in the Taxonomy of Some Gram-Negative Fermentative Bacteria

Numerical taxonomy of some yellow-pigmented bacteria isolated from plants.

Phenetic data on over 60 heterotrophic, Gram-negative, yellow chromogenic bacteria from plant material were collected and analysed using numerical taxonomic methods. Marker strains representing 42 taxa were included in the analyses. At similarity levels of 80% or above, eight distinct clusters were obtained, the first four of which included yellow chromogens. Custer I contained isolates from gr...

Adansonian Analysis and Deoxyribonucleic Acid Base Composition of Some Gram-negative Bacteria.

Colwell, R. R. (Georgetown University, Washington, D.C.), and M. Mandel. Adansonian analysis and deoxyribonucleic acid base composition of some gram-negative bacteria. J. Bacteriol. 87:1412-1422. 1964.-The deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) base compositions and S values for a minimum of 134 coded properties were determined for representative cultures of the genera Pseudomonas, Xanthomonas, Aeromonas,...

Numerical taxonomy of the genus Glycyrrhiza in the Hyrcanian region

Noticeable variation was observed in a number of morphological characters in the Glycyrrhiza specimens in various habitats in north of Iran. To study these variations, two taxa related to the Hyrcanian region from all four known taxa of this genus in Iran, including Glycyrrhiza echinata, and G. glabra var. glabra were studied by numerical taxonomy using morphological characters in three provinc...

Deoxyribonucleic acid base composition and numerical taxonomy of yeasts in the genus Trichosporon.

Numerical taxonomy of certain coryneform bacteria.

da Silva, G. A. Nigel (Iowa State University, Ames), and John G. Holt. Numerical taxonomy of certain coryneform bacteria. J. Bacteriol. 90:921-927. 1965-An electronic computer was used to sort 32 strains of coryneforms into groups with the tree-sort program. The similarity values obtained in this procedure were then used to construct a dendrogram depicting the phenetic resemblance among the tax...
