by Montero-Calasanz, M. d. C., Yaramis, A., Rohde, M., Schumann, P., Klenk, H.-P., and Meier-Kolthoff, J. P. (2022). Front. Microbiol. 13:975365. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.975365
In the published article, there were some nomenclatural errors in the protologues of Trujillonella and Trujillonella endophytica, Pleomorpha and Pleomorpha daqingensis, Goekera and Goekera deserti and Blastococcus xantinilythicus.
A correction has been made to the section Final remarks and taxonomic consequences, as follows:
Description of Trujillonella gen. nov.
Tru.jil.lo.nel'la. N.L. fem. dim. n. Trujillonella named in honour of Martha E. Trujillo in recognition of her contributions to microbial systematics, mainly on Actinobacteria, on Bergey's Manual trust, and as the Editor-in-chief of the International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology.
Cells are aerobic, non-motile, non-spore-forming, Gram-stain positive, catalase-positive and oxidase-negative. Cells occur singly, in pairs or in tetrads, often tending to form aggregates. The peptidoglycan in the cell-wall contains meso-diaminopimelic acid. The predominant menaquinone is MK-9(H4), with MK-8 and MK-9(H6) as minor components. The basic polar lipid profile contains diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylinositol. The major fatty acids are iso-C16:0, iso-C15:0 and C18:1ω9c. The basic whole-cell sugar pattern includes arabinose and galactose. The genomic G + C content is 71–72%. The type species of Trujillonella is Trujillonella endophytica comb. nov.

A repertoire of genes related to flagellum synthesis, chemotaxis, spore production and pilus assembly were annotated. Four different autotrophic mechanisms including the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway, C4-dicarboxylic acid and reductive citric acid cycles and carbonic anhydrases as well as a range of genes involved in the degradation of complex carbohydrates were also identified.
