Abstract

The classification of the oral streptococci has long remained a difficult area of streptococcal taxonomy. This article reviews the current classification of these bacteria into four species groups, and each group is described in detail. The often confusing changes that have taken place in the classification, identification and nomenclature of the member species are reviewed against a historical background of gradually improving techniques and approaches, leading towards a natural classification based primarily on genotypic evidence. Identification schemes currently in use employing biochemical tests are also reviewed, together with alternative molecular approaches.

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.
