I really need to know the literal English translation of this bacteria’s name! After searching everywhere, I found out that “shigella” was named after Shiga, the Japanese researcher that discovered it. What does Sonnei mean? Thanks for the help.
S. sonnei is, according to one anonymous source, named after Carl Sonne. My amazing psychic powers can predict your next question: “Who dat?”
Haven’t the foggiest. Maybe he’s a famous microbiologist.
Alright then, I have two more questions (oh boy!). What Is Shigella Sonnei’s Subkingdom and Order? I found everything else but those two. Thanks for the help by the way, Mr. Psychic!
