《伯杰氏鉴定细菌学手册》和“伯杰氏国际系统微生物学学会”历史回顾、发展现状及未来展望

Bergey’s Manual of Determinative Bacteriology and Bergey’s International Society for Microbial Systematics(BISMiS):past,present and future

2023年是《伯杰氏鉴定细菌学手册》出版一百周年。《伯杰氏鉴定细菌学手册》的诞生,旨在建立起原核微生物分类的明确标准,开启对原核微生物分类学探索的使命。随着生物学、物理学、化学、分子生物学、生物信息学及其相关研究技术的发展及学科交叉,微生物分类学逐渐发展为以系统发育和多相分类为基础、研究微生物物种进化与生物学特性和物种间相关性的学科,因此新发现的微生物物种及其生物学特征信息增加迅猛,该手册在2015年改名为《伯杰氏古菌与细菌系统学手册》,并采用了电子版,使得更新快捷,为原核微生物系统分类学领域注入新的生机和活力。《伯杰氏鉴定细菌学手册》是微生物系统分类学的经典之作,为微生物学者提供微生物物种分类信息的同时,也在引领该领域的学者探索更为广阔的微生物世界。“伯杰氏国际系统微生物学学会”于2009年成立,旨在促进国际微生物领域的学术交流,推动原核微生物系统分类学的发展。本综述全面回顾了《伯杰氏鉴定细菌学手册》和“伯杰氏国际系统微生物学学会”的发展历史及最新进展,并对其未来发展方向进行了展望。

The year 2023 marks the centenary of the publication of the Bergey’s Manual of Determinative Bacteriology.Bergey’s Manual of Determinative Bacteriology was created to establish clear criteria for the classification of prokaryotic microorganisms and to initiate a mission to explore the taxonomy of prokaryotic microorganisms.With the innovation and promotion of biology,physics,chemistry,molecular biology,bioinformatics and related research techniques,and the interdisciplinary nature of microbial taxonomy,which is based on phylogenetic relationships and polyphasic taxonomy,the study of the evolution and biology of microbial species and interspecies correlation has led to a rapid increase in the number of newly discovered microbial species and information on their biological characteristics.The Bergey’s Manual of Determinative Bacteriology was renamed to Bergey’s Manual of Systematics of Archaea and Bacteria in 2015 and made available electronically,allowing for quick updates and a new dynamic in the field of systematic taxonomy of prokaryotic microorganisms.The“Bergey’s International Society for Microbial Systematics(BISMiS)”was established in 2009 to enhance the dissemination of systematic microbiological biotechnology and to promote international academic exchange in the field of microbiology.This review provides a comprehensive overview of the history and recent developments of the Bergey’s Manual of Determinative Bacteriology and“Bergey’s International Society for Microbial Systematics(BISMiS)”,as well as an outlook on their future directions.
