  1. Bergey's Manual of Systematic Bacteriology is the main resource for determining the identity of prokaryotic organisms, emphasizing bacterial species, using every characterizing aspect. The manual was published subsequent to the Bergey's Manual of Determinative Bacteriology, though the latter is still published as a guide for identifying.

The 2nd edition of Bergey’s Manual of Systematic Bacteriology details the classification and cultural characteristics of prokaryotes. The text is organized by molecular-based classification systems. Bergey's is necessary for any student who wishes to learn about a specific species, genus, family, or species or to know more about prokaryote taxonomy in general.

The 5-volume consists of:

  • Volume 1 (2001): The Archaea and the deeply branching and phototrophic bacteria
  • Volume 2 (2005): The Proteobacteria—divided into three books:
    • 2A: Introductory essays
    • 2B: The Gammaproteobacteria
    • 2C: The Alpha-, Beta-, Delta-, and Epsilon-proteobacteria
  • Volume 3 (2009): The Firmicutes
  • Volume 4 (2011): The Bacteroidetes, Spirochaetes, Tenericutes, Mollicutes, Acidobacteria, Fibrobacteres, Fusobacteria, Dictyoglomi, Gemmatimonadetes, Lentisphaerae, Verrucomicrobia, Chlamydiae, and Planctomycetes
  • Volume 5 (in two parts) (2012): The Actinobacteria

Bergey's manual of systematics of archaea and bacteria (2015), an online book, replaces the five-volume set. Ventura College does not currently have access to this edition.
