Brucella, a Monospecific Genus as Shown by Deoxyribonucleic Acid Hybridization
Abstract
A total of 51 strains (including type, reference, vaccine, and field strains) representing all species and biovars of Brucella formed a single deoxyribonucleic acid-deoxyribonucleic acid hybridization group (S1 nuclease method). Accordingly, we propose that only one species, Brucella melitensis, be recognized in the genus. We recommend that other specific epithets formerly associated with the generic name Brucella be used in a vernacular form for biovar designation (e.g., Brucella melitensis biovar Abortus 1).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
