| Abstract |
Species of the genus Prosthecomicrobium are noted for their numerous cellular appendages or prosthecae that extend from the cells. This investigation confirms that the genus is polyphyletic based on an extensive analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences of several named species of the genus. The analyses indicate that some Prosthecomicrobium species are more closely related to non-prosthecate genera, including Devosia, Labrenzia, Blastochloris, Methylosinus, Mesorhizobium and Kaistia, than they are to other species of the genus Prosthecomicrobium. For this reason, two of the Prosthecomicrobium clades which are polyphyletic with the type species, Prosthecomicrobium pneumaticum, are renamed as new genera. The currently named species Prosthecomicrobium enhydrum, Prosthecomicrobium mishustinii, Prosthecomicrobium consociatum and Prosthecomicrobium litoralum are reclassified in two new genera, Vasilyevaea gen. nov. and Bauldia gen. nov. with four new combinations: Vasilyevaea enhydra comb. nov. (the type species) and Vasilyevaea mishustinii comb. nov., and Bauldia consociata comb. nov. and Bauldia litoralis comb. nov. (the type species). The type strain of Vasilyevaea enhydra is strain 9b(T) (=ATCC 23634(T) =VKM B-1376(T)). The type strain of the other species in this genus is Vasilyevaea mishustinii strain 17(T) (=VKM B-2499(T) =CCM 7569(T)). The type strain of Bauldia litoralis is strain 524-16(T) (= NCIB 2233(T) =ATCC 35022(T)). The type strain of the other species in this genus is Bauldia consociata strain 11(T) (=VKM B-2498(T) =CCM 7594(T)). |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 March 2023.
All research outputs
#7,484,976
of 23,532,144 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology
#2,998
of 8,990 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#48,714
of 168,562 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology
#10
of 81 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,532,144 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 67th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 8,990 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.1. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 63% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 168,562 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 70% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 81 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its contemporaries.
