Lists of abbreviations for genus names of bacteria are expanded to accommodate 103 new entries which are
names that have been validly published since the publication of an updated list by Rogosa et al. in 1986 (Int.
J. Syst. Bacteriol. 36:464-472). These abbreviations are provided to serve the need for appropriate codified
abbreviations for use in processing or indexing of information on computers.
Appropriate and generally accepted conventional abbreviations are needed in data banks. A list of abbreviations of
bacterial generic names was initiated by Johnson et al. (1)in
1976. Four-letter abbreviations were chosen to minimize
computer storage space, while still allowing creation of
mnemonic abbreviations. Revised versions of the list were
published in 1980 (2) and 1986 (6). The updated lists were
prompted by the publication of the Approved Lists of
Bacterial Names (7) in 1980 and the Index of Bacterial and
Yeast Nomenclatural Changes (4) in 1985. Basic conventions
for the alphabetic coding of generic names were published in
the 1986 update. Also included in the 1986 update were lists
of bacterial names with no official standing, because such
names still appear in the literature, and names of yeast
genera with proposed abbreviations.
Table 1 is a list of bacterial generic names that were
approved or effectively published from January 1980 to
December 1990 and their appropriate abbreviations. Nineteen names which have been validly published since 1986
and appeared among the unofficial names given by Rogosa et
al. (6) are included in Table 1, where they appear with new
names published in the scientific literature since 1986. In
several cases orthographically incorrect names that appeared on previous lists have been corrected; the incorrect
name is no longer on the list, and its abbreviation was
assigned to the proper spelling. The list of bacterial names
with no official standing (Table 2) has also been updated. We
must emphasize that the names that appear in Table 2 are
included purely for indexing purposes and that they have no
standing in nomenclature even if they appear in the literature. Data on newly appearing bacterial generic names and
name changes were gathered from the BIOSIS Register of
Bacterial Nomenclature data base. Since the Register contains data on bacterial names only, it was not feasible to
update the list of abbreviations for yeast generic names
which appeared in a previous paper (6). Therefore, the yeast
list is not included in this paper. The Register contains
names of bacteria gathered from journals and books analyzed for the BIOSIS Previews data base and includes names
