Phenetic taxonomy is a system of biological classification that groups organisms on the basis of overall similarity in observable characteristics, without attempting to determine their evolutionary or genetic relationships. In microbiology, this approach is especially useful because many microorganisms lack clear fossil records and show limited morphological diversity. Phenetic taxonomy relies on the assumption that organisms sharing a greater number of similar traits are more closely related, regardless of the origin of those traits.
