摘要
We determined the nucleotide sequence of a 16S rRNA gene of Rhodococcus chlorophenolicus PCP-I-T (= DSM 43826(T)) (T = type strain). Sequence comparisons revealed that there was a close relationship between strain PCP-I-T and strains belonging to the genus Mycobacterium. The sequence data were used to construct a phylogenetic tree, which showed that Mycobacterium chubuense is the closest relative of strain PCP-I-T. We propose that strain PCP-I-T should be transferred to the genus Mycobacterium and renamed Mycobacterium chlorophenolicum PCP-I-T comb. nov.
