Whole-genome sequencing and PFGE analysis of Paraburkholderia ginsengiterrae DCY85T and Paraburkholderia panaciterrae DCY85-1T showed these strains are highly similar and may even be clones of the same strain. The PFGE patterns of XbaI-, AvaII-, and SpeI-digested genomic DNA of the two strains were indistinguishable. Based on the priority of valid publications of the species basonyms, Burkholderia ginsengiterrae and Burkholderia panaciterrae , it is proposed to reclassify P. panaciterrae as a later synonym of P. ginsengiterrae . The P. ginsengiterrae description was emended by replacing the DNA G+C content value of 66.0 mol%, which is higher than the 65 mol% considered the threshold for species of the genus Paraburkholderia , with the value of 62.4–62.5 mol%, calculated as the mean DNA G+C content of the draft genomes of strains DCY85-1T and DCY85T.
