Phylogenomic Analyses of the Genus Pseudomonas Lead to the Rearrangement of Several Species and the Definition of New Genera

is a large and diverse genus broadly distributed in nature. Its species play relevant roles in the biology of earth and living beings. Because of its ubiquity, the number of new species is continuously increasing although its taxonomic organization remains quite difficult to unravel. Nowadays the use of genomics is routinely employed for the analysis of bacterial systematics. In this work, we aimed to investigate the classification of species of the genus on the basis of the analyses of the type strains whose genomes are currently available. Based on these analyses, we propose the creation of three new genera ( gen nov. comb. nov., gen nov. comb. nov. and gen nov. comb. nov) to encompass several species currently included within the genus and the reclassification of several species of this genus in already described taxa.
