Intra- and Intergeneric Similarities of the Bordetella Ribosomal Ribonucleic Acid Cistrons: Proposal for a New Family, Alcaligenaceae DE LEY, J. and SEGERS, P. and KERSTERS, K. and MANNHEIM, W. and LIEVENS, A.,, 36, 405-414 (1986), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/00207713-36-3-405, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= Hybridization experiments were carried out between 3H-labeled ribosomal ribonucleic acid from Bordetella bronchiseptica NCTC 452T (T = type strain), 14C-labeled ribosomal ribonucleic acid from Alcaligenes faecalis NCIB 8156T, or 14C-labeled ribosomal ribonucleic acid from Alcaligenes xylosoxidans subsp. denitrificans ATCC 15173T and deoxyribonucleic acids from various strains of Bordetella, Alcaligenes and other taxa. A numerical analysis of phenotypic features was also done. The genera Bordetella and Alcaligenes are very closely related, which warrants the proposal of a new family, the Alcaligenaceae., language=, type=
