Abstract
Many names of plant pathogenic bacteria will not be included in the Approved Lists, 1980, if the lists contain only the names of valid species. It is proposed that pathogens which do not have a claim to species rank be classified as pathovars. All validly published names of plant pathogens for which there are authentic cultures are listed as species or as pathovars. A guide for using the term pathovar at the infrasubspecific level is suggested. Designated type and reference strains are listed, and neotype and new reference strains are suggested where none were reported elsewhere.This publication has 109 references indexed in Scilit:
