^aphlD, hcnBC, and RAPD groups were determined by Wang et al. (64), Ramette et al. (51), and Keel et al. (30), respectively.

^bThese strains produced the same phlD restriction pattern (HaeIII) as group PhlD3 strain Q2-87, but phlD was not sequenced (unlike Q2-87).

^cThese strains produced the same phlD restriction pattern (HaeIII) as group PhlD4 strains TM1A3, TM1B2, and C*1A1, but phlD was not sequenced (unlike TM1A3, TM1B2, and C*1A1).

^dND, not determined.
