enterobacter capped??? - hh
Posted: May 29, 2015
Is enterobactoer capitalized if it is by itself and not with the species. My spell check says it is incorrect if it is not capitalized, but i thought it was only supposed to be capitalized if the genus and species are together.
You are correct. Just update your spellchecker - to accept lower case too. nm

No, the genus is capped whether it is with species or not. - Species is not capped.

No, no caps needed if genus stands alone. - nm

Always capitalize genus names and their abbreviated forms when they are
accompanied by a species name.
Always lowercase species names.

Lowercase genus names used in plural and adjectival forms and when used in
the vernacular, for example, when they stand alone (without a species name).
