^aCells recovered from red pinpoint colonies and subcultured in BHI broth at 28°C are designated as RE. The pYV-negative strains of Y. enterocolitica Y. pseudotuberculosis, and Y. pestis are designated as C (cured).

Low-calcium: CR-BHO (238 μM Ca²⁺) and CR-TSO (311 μM Ca²⁺). CR-MOX (calcium deficient).
