AI Article Synopsis

  • The study reviews 160 newly described species from 2020 to 2022, improving species identification through updated taxonomy and phylogenetic analyses.
  • The researchers accepted 133 species, synonymized 22, classified four as doubtful, and made new taxonomic combinations, increasing the total accepted species in the order to 453.
  • Major changes include validating invalid descriptions, updating species classifications, and introducing new sections in the taxonomic tree, reflecting ongoing advancements in species recognition and classification.

Article Abstract

The order is diverse and includes species that impact our daily lives in many ways. In the past, its taxonomy was difficult due to morphological similarities, which made accurate identification of species difficult. This situation improved and stabilised with recent taxonomic and nomenclatural revisions that modernised , and . This was mainly due to the availability of curated accepted species lists and the publication of comprehensive DNA sequence reference datasets. This has also led to a sharp increase in the number of new species described each year with the accepted species lists in turn also needing regular updates. The focus of this study was to review the 160 species described between the last list of accepted species published in 2020 until 31 December 2022. To review these species, single-gene phylogenies were constructed and GCPSR (Genealogical Concordance Phylogenetic Species Recognition) was applied. Multi-gene phylogenetic analyses were performed to further determine the relationships of the newly introduced species. As a result, we accepted 133 species (37 , two , 59 , two , 32 and one ), synonymised 22, classified four as doubtful and created a new combination for , which is classified in . This brings the number of accepted species to 453 for , 12 for , 535 for , 14 for , 203 for and four for . We accept the newly introduced section (in ), and series (in sect. ) and (in sect. ). In addition, we validate the invalidly described species and , and series (in sect. ), introduce a new combination for (type of the genus) and place it in a new section in subgenus , provide an updated description for , and list excluded and recently synonymised species that were previously accepted.

Background: Nocardia are widely present in nature and considered opportunistic pathogens. They can result in hematogenous spread infection through the ruptured skin or respiratory tract when the host's immune system is compromised. Currently, 119 species of Nocardia have been identified, with 54 capable of causing infections in humans.

Excited-state proton transfer (ESPT) in organic photoacids is a widely studied phenomenon in which D-luciferin is of special mention, considering the fact that apart from its phenolic OH group, the nitrogen atoms at either of the two thiazole moieties could also participate in hydrogen bonding interactions with a proton-donating solvent during ESPT. As a result, several transient species could appear during the ESPT process. We hereby deploy subpicosecond time-resolved fluorescence upconversion (FLUP) and transient absorption (TA) spectroscopic techniques to understand the detailed photophysics of D-luciferin in water as well as in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and ethanol.

Cumulenes are molecules characterized by a series of consecutive double bonds. They serve as important reagents and intermediates in the synthesis of polymers and a wide variety of functionalized compounds, including various heterocycles. Understanding the properties of cumulenes and developing synthetic routes to these often highly reactive species is essential for unlocking new applications.
