A Note on the Genus Free

Abstract

SUMMARY: Previous workers have shown that the flagellation of certain bacteria is variable, becoming lateral or polar according to age and conditions of culture. In view of these findings, and because of the morphological and biochemical similarity of the organisms, Lysenko (1958) has equated with It is now suggested that would be better placed in the genus and that it is similar to an organism provisionally named It is further suggested that all members of the genus could be regarded as non-chromogenic species of the genus
