The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Morphological Identification of Actinobacteria (2016, background): “In recent years, more and more genotypic approaches were applied on the classification of actinobacteria, such as multilocus sequence analyses (MLSA) [9], average nucleotide identity (ANI) [10, 11], and whole genome analysis [10, 12-14].”
Genome-Based Taxonomic Classification of the Phylum Actinobacteria (2018, background): “, 2017) may have been avoided if dDDH had been preferred or pairwise comparison had been restricted to those involving type strains (Meier-Kolthoff et al., 2014c).”
TYGS is an automated high-throughput platform for state-of-the-art genome-based taxonomy (2019, methodology): “To that end, truly whole-genome-based methods such as GBDP have been developed 7,11,13,14 to provide unprecedented insights into the microbial tree of life 6,10,15 – 21 , to elucidate evolutionary relationships of viruses and eukaryotes 22,23 and to yield robust branch support values 5,24,25 .”
