Hello everyone,
Does anyone know since when did certain species of Microccus (M. varians,
M. roseus, M. kristinae) get a genus name change to Kokuria? I just found
out this week when some organisms I set up on API Staph did not "code
out" in the index, and their telephone database listed those profiles as
good identifications for "Kokuria" varians/roseus, etc.
Also, what are the characteristics of the apparently new genus Kokuria
which distinguish it from Micrococcus?
Infectionately,
Yersinia.
