Abstract
AbstractForty‐four Corynebacterium fascians strains from different geographical origins and host plants were characterized by their phytopathological capacity towards different host plants together with 206 morphological, biochemical and physiological features.The numerical analysis of the phenotypic features utilizing the SSM similarity coefficient and the average unweighted pair‐group clustering method revealed that all Corynebacterium fascians strains form a rather homogeneous cluster: over 80%, SSM exists between the 44Corynebacterium fascians strains from phenon II. From the present results the reclassification of C. fascians as Rhodococcus rhodochrous is not obvious.
