Abstract

Yersinia ruckeri is a gram-negative rod-shaped bacterium belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae. It is in the same genus as Yersinia pestis, the causative agent of the bubonic plaque and a category A select agent. The taxonomic assignment of Y. ruckeri, however, has raised controversy since it appears to have diverged from the rest of the Yersinia genus in phylogenetic analysis...
