a
Identification of isolates was achieved using multi-locus sequencing, either of full-length-16S/rpoB/hsp60, or of gyrB/rpoB/hsp60; BLAST alignments were carried out with concatenated sequences.
b
Shown are all species that received identical scores for alignment with query sequence.
c
The group of isolates that yielded CBent1-5 (see main text).
d
Identified based on two available sequences.
