Table 3. Genome characteristics of strain MWH-Ta8T and other strains affiliated with the family Microbacteriaceae.
The column presenting data for other members of the family Microbacteriaceae summarizes in the first three lines characteristics of 41 genome-sequenced strains (Table S1) and in the last line data of type species determined by a different method. Phylogenetic analyses with 16S rRNA gene sequences of the genome-sequenced strains confirmed their affiliation with the family Microbacteriaceae (Fig. S1). The data presented in the last column represent minimum–maximum (mean) values. The genome sequence of MWH-Ta8T represents a closed genome organized in one contig, while the genome sequence strain IMCC13023 is organized in six scaffolds (Kang et al., 2012). nd, Not determined.
