On the basis of phenotypic studies and deoxyribonucleic acid hybridization data, the strains could be accommodated in the two previously named species of the group, P. alcaligenes and P. pseudoalcaligenes. Both species were shown to be closely related to P. mendocina and P. stutzeri and more distantly related to the fluorescent species of the same genus. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/00207713-26-4-421
