Abstract
A marine bacterium, NCMB 397, host strain for bacteriophages NCMB 384 and 385, has been subjected to taxonoinic analysis. Overall base composition of the highly purified deoxyribonucleic acid was determined and found to be 37 moles % guanine + cytosine. The phenetic and nucleic acid data suggest significant relationship of this strain and members of the genus Cytophaga. A description of Cytophaga marinoflava n. sp. is presented.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
