The Corynebacterineae comprise a suborder of the Actinomycetales and include most[citation needed] of the acid-fast bacteria. Therewith it is a subgroup of the high GC-content and Gram-positive bacteria. Among its subgroup Mycobacteriaceae are the species which cause tuberculosis and leprosy.

Phylogeny

The phylogeny is based on 16S rRNA-based LTP release 123 by 'The All-Species Living Tree' Project.[1]

Taxonomy

The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic Names with Standing in Nomenclature [2] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)[3]

  • Order Corynebacteriales Goodfellow & Jones 2015 ["Corynebacteriales" Goodfellow & Jones 2012; Corynebacterineae Stackebrandt et al. 1997 emend. Zhi, Li & Stackebrandt 2009; Mycobacteria]

Notes:
♠ Strains found at the National Center for Biotechnology Information but not listed in the List of Prokaryotic Names with Standing in Nomenclature
