GUIDELINES FOR CATALOGUE PRODUCTION

Bacteria format and reference list
Status

Information taken from:
'Structuring Strain Data for Storage and Retrieval of Information on Bacteria in MINE, the Microbial Information Network Europe'
Stalpers et al., Systematic and Applied Microbiology (1990), 13, 92-103.

Status


T = type strain or type species
NT = neotype
PVRS = pathovar reference strain

Since 1980 only type strains and neotype strains have status in nomenclature. Use of the rems pathotype (PTT), lectotype (LT), paratype (PT) and authentic strain (AUT) is not recommended. OR (original strain) and REFS (reference strain for infrasubspecific taxa) also have no status

Status either refers to the name mentioned in the NAME fields, and then only one of the above abbreviations is given, or it refers to another taxon, then the name of that taxon with author(s) (no comma!) is given, preceded by "of".

Examples:
[in Acetobacter pasteurianus LMD 22.1] T

[in Acetobacter pasteurianus LMD 51.1] T of Acetobacter pasteurianus ssp. Ascendens (Henneberg 1898) De Ley and Frateur 1974 AL
