Transfer of Arthrobacter variabilis (Muller) to the Genus Corynebacterium, as Corynebacterium variabilis comb. nov.

Mary Collins

Abstract

Arthrobacter variabilis (Müller) differs so much from the type species of the genus Arthrobacter, Arthrobacter globiformis, that it should not be retained within this genus. On the basis of biochemical and chemical criteria, it is proposed that Arthrobacter variabilis be reclassified in the genus Corynebacterium, as Corynebacterium variabilis comb. nov. The type strain is ATCC 15753 (NCIB 9455).
