Our results show that these strains are members of the same species and conform to the description of Section II of the genus Pseudomonas. Because of small differences in substrate utilization patterns, the strains isolated in the People’s Republic of China are thought to be biovars of P. cocovenenans. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/00207713-40-4-452
