The information held in genome sequences proved to provide objective and reliable means in the taxonomy of prokaryotes. Here, we describe the minimal standards for the quality of genome sequences and how they can be applied for taxonomic purposes., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.002516
