Li, Chun Yan and Zhou, Yuan Liang and Ji, Jing and Gu, Chun Tao,, 66, 2780-2783 (2016), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.001054, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= The taxonomic positions of Enterobacter oryziphilus and Enterobacter oryzendophyticus were re-examined on the basis of concatenated partial rpoB, atpD, gyrB and infB gene sequence analysis. The reconstructed phylogenetic tree based upon concatenated partial rpoB, atpD, gyrB and infB gene sequences clearly showed that E . oryziphilus and E . oryzendophyticus and all defined species of the genus Kosakonia form a clade separate from other genera of the family Enterobacteriaceae , and, therefore, these species of the genus Enterobacter should be transferred to the genus K osakonia . E . oryziphilus and E . oryzendophyticus are reclassified as K. oryziphila comb. nov. (type strain REICA_142T=LMG 26429T=NCCB 100393T) and K. oryzendophytica comb. nov. (type strain REICA_082T=LMG 26432T=NCCB 100390T), respectively., language=, type=
