摘要: 16S ribosomal DNA analysis indicates that Propionibacterium innocuum is a phylogenetic neighbor of Luteococcus japonicus and this pair organisms branches intermediately between the genus on one side genera Aeromicrobium Nocardioides other side. Phenotypically, strains P. differ from species by exhibiting aerobic growth possessing arabinose in cell wall, they formation propionic acid, morphology. Consequently, should not be classified with authentic species, transfer Pitcher Collins 1991 to new genus, Propioniferax, as Propioniferax innocua gen. nov., comb. nov. proposed.
