Leveraging the subgenus category to address genus over-splitting exemplified with <i>Prescottella</i> and other recently proposed <i>Mycobacteriales</i> genera

2025-04-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Three related circumstances are compromising the stability of prokaryotic taxonomy and nomenclature, with a significant impact in the field of pathogenic microorganisms: (i) the growing trend of subdividing existing genera by arbitrary phylogenomics-based demarcations, creating an increasing number of new genera; (ii) the priority of databases towards the last validly published names; and (iii)...
