""'Duganella phyllosphaerae " "'is a bacterium from the genus " Duganella " in the Oxalobacteraceae family which was isolated from the leaf surface of " Trifolium repens " in Germany . " D . phyllosphaerae " is a bright-yellow pigmented bacterium.

It was first reported in white clover ( " Trifolium repens " ) as early as 1939 . However, in 1942 the virus in white clover, then called " Trifolium virus 1 " or " white-clover mosiac " was found to be two different viruses when one proved to be transmitted by dodder and did not infect cowpea ( " Vigna sinensis " ).

The results show that there is no one " true " species of shamrock, but that " Trifolium dubium " ( Lesser clover ) is considered to be the shamrock by roughly half of Irish people, and " Trifolium repens " ( White clover ) by another third, with the remaining fifth split between " Trifolium pratense ", " Medicago lupulina ", " Oxalis acetosella " and various other species of " Trifolium " and " Oxalis ".
