Abstract
Studies were carried out of the chemotaxonomy, DNA renaturation and biochemistry in eight strains which had been obtained as D(-)-tartrate-utilizing isolates. All but one of the isolates (G5) could be allocated to the genus Pseudomonas as presently defined on the basis of the guanine-plus-cytosine (G+C) content of their DNA, ubiquinones and fatty acid patterns. Strain G5 with its unusual branched fatty acids and menaquinone pattern, deserves further investigation. Biochemical and DNA renaturation studies showed various degrees of relatedness of six of the isolates to Pseudomonas putida biotype A. By the same criteria, the isolate G2 was shown to belong to Pseudomonas delafieldii .
