Reference strains, including two mis-named organisms, 'Chromobacterium chocolatum' and Flavobacterium marinotypicum, isolates from soil and clinical specimens, all previously recognized as Aureobacterium or Microbacterium, were characterized taxonomically. On the basis of morphological, physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics, as well as DNA-DNA hybridization data, six new species and one new combination are proposed in the genus Microbacterium: Microbacterium ketosireducens sp. nov. (type strain IFO 14548T), Microbacterium chocolatum sp. nov. (type strain IFO 3758T), Microbacterium aurantiacum sp. nov. (type strain IFO 15234T), Microbacterium hominis sp. nov. (type strain IFO 15708T), Microbacterium thalassium sp. nov. (type strain IFO 16060T), Microbacterium halophilum sp. nov. (type strain IFO 16062T) and Microbacterium maritypicum comb. nov. (type strain IFO 15779T).
对参考菌株进行了分类学特征分析,其中包括两种命名错误的微生物,即“巧克力色杆菌”和海洋黄杆菌,它们分离自土壤和临床标本,以前均被鉴定为金色杆菌或微杆菌。基于形态学、生理学和化学分类学特征以及DNA-DNA杂交数据,在微杆菌属中提出了六个新物种和一个新组合:酮还原微杆菌(Microbacterium ketosireducens)新种(模式菌株IFO 14548T)、巧克力色微杆菌(Microbacterium chocolatum)新种(模式菌株IFO 3758T)、橙色微杆菌(Microbacterium aurantiacum)新种(模式菌株IFO 15234T)、人源微杆菌(Microbacterium hominis)新种(模式菌株IFO 15708T)、海洋微杆菌(Microbacterium thalassium)新种(模式菌株IFO 16060T)、嗜盐微杆菌(Microbacterium halophilum)新种(模式菌株IFO 16062T)以及海洋型微杆菌(Microbacterium maritypicum)新组合(模式菌株IFO 15779T)。
