Abstract excerpt
The taxonomic position of Catellatospora ferruginea and 'Catellatospora ishikariense' was investigated by phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic and physiological characterization. The 16S rDNA sequences of the organisms were compared with those of members of the genus Catellatospora and other genera of the Micromonosporaceae and phylogenetic trees were inferred by using distance-matrix and parsimony methods. The organisms...
