Abstract

A new species, , which was isolatedfrom brown leaf spot lesions on pear trees, is described on the basis of the characteristics of seven strains. These bacteria are gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, straight rods (0.6 to 1.0 by 1.6 to 2.3 μm) thatare motile and peritrichous. As determined by DNA hybridization (hydroxyapatite method), these seven strains were 97.5% related in both 60 and 75°C reactions, with no evidence of sequence divergence, indicating that they are members of a single species. is most closely related to (46%)and to hybridization group XI (37%). is differentiated from by its growth in KCN broth, acid production from -inositol, and lack of acid production from raffinose. The type strain of is strain KCTC 2520 (= CDC G6570 = ATCC 49851).
