Genome Data Provides High Support for Generic Boundaries in Burkholderia Sensu Lato

Genome Data Provides High Support for Generic Boundaries in Burkholderia Sensu Lato

Although the taxonomy of Burkholderia has been extensively scrutinized, significant uncertainty remains regarding the generic boundaries and composition of this large and heterogeneous taxon. Here we used the amino acid and nucleotide sequences of 106 conserved proteins from 92 species to infer robu...
