A novel strain was isolated from grassland soil that has the potential to assimilate ammonium by the reduction of nitrate in the presence of oxygen. Whole genome sequence analysis revealed the presence of an assimilatory cytoplasmic nitrate reductase gene nasA and the assimilatory nitrite reductase genes nirBD which are involved in the sequential reduction of nitrate to nitrite and further to ammonium, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the isolate represents a member of the genus Pseudomonas . The closest phylogenetic neighbours based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis are the type strains of Pseudomonas peli (98.17%) and Pseudomonas guineae (98.03%). In contrast, phylogenomic analysis revealed a close relationship to Pseudomonas alcaligenes . Computation of the average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) with the closest phylogenetic neighbours of S1-A32-2T revealed genetic differences at the species level, which were further substantiated by differences in several physiological characteristics. On the basis of these results, it was concluded that the soil isolate represents a novel species of the genus Pseudomonas, for which the name Pseudomonas campi sp. nov. (type strain S1-A32-2T=LMG 31521T=DSM 110222T) is proposed.

Two marine bacterial strains, designated S2-4-21T and MT2-5-19, were isolated from two tidal flat sediments of cordgrass Spartina alterniflora and adjacent oyster culture field in Quanzhou bay, China, respectively. Both strains were Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped, non-flagellated, non-motile, aerobic, had NaCl requirements, and contained carotenoid and flexirubin pigments. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (99.8%), average nucleotide identity value (99.4%) and average amino acid identity (99.3%) between strain S2-4-21T and strain MT2-5-19 strongly supported that they belonged to a single species. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain S2-4-21T and strain MT2-5-19 formed a monophyletic branch affiliated to the family Flavobacteriaceae , sharing similarities of 94.6% with Euzebyella marina CY01T and E. saccharophila 7SM30T, and of 94.1 and 92.8% with E. algicola MEBiC 12267T and Pseudozobellia thermophile DSM 19858T, respectively. Phylogenomic analysis based on the whole genome sequences supported that the two strains formed a distinct monophyletic clade within Flavobacteriaceae members, which was phylogenetically different from the clades of Euzebyella and Pseudozobellia . The major respiratory quinone was menaquinone MK-6. The major fatty acids (>10%) consisted of C15 : 0 iso, C16 : 0, summed feature 9 (C17 : 1 iso ω9c/C16 : 0 10-methyl) and C17 : 0 iso 3-OH. The polar lipid profiles of strain S2-4-21T and strain MT2-5-19 are identical, including phosphatidylethanolamine, four unidentified aminolipids, and four unidentified lipids. The genomic size was 4.9–5.0 Mb with genomic DNA G+C content of 41.5 mol%. Based on the above characteristics, strains S2-4-21T and MT2-5-19 represented a novel species of a novel genus in the family Flavobacteriaceae . Thus, Pareuzebyella sediminis gen. nov. sp. nov. is proposed with type strain S2-4-21T (=MCCC 1K03818T=KCTC 72152T), and another strain MT2-5-19 (=KCTC 72539=MCCC 1K03874).

The 16S Rrna Gene

The 16S rRNA gene sequences of Pasteurella lymphangitidis , Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and Yersinia pestis were found to be identical and multilocus sequence analysis could not discriminate between the three species. The susceptibility to a Y. pseudotuberculosis phage and the presence of the Y. pseudotuberculosis -specific invasin gene in P. lymphangitidis indicate that the latter should be reclassified as Y. pseudotuberculosis .

Clostridium Symbiosum

An obligately anaerobic, Gram-stain-positive and spore-forming strain, SNUG30386T was isolated from a faecal sample of a healthy Korean subject. The strain formed a round ivory-coloured colony and cells were chained rods with tapered ends, approximately 2.0–2.5×0.6–0.8 μm in size. The taxonomic analysis indicated that strain SNUG30386T was within the family Lachnospiraceae . According to the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, the closest species to strain SNUG30386T was Clostridium symbiosum (95.6 %), followed by Enterocloster asparagiformis (94.8 %), Enterocloster clostridioformis (94.8 %) and Enterocloster lavalensis (94.6 %). The evolutionary tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences demonstrated that strain SNUG30386T had split apart at a unique branch point far from other close relatives. Its DNA G+C content was 48.3 mol% calculated from the whole genome sequence. The major cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0 and C14 : 0. Compared to those of the closely related species, strain SNUG30386T showed distinct biochemical activities such as being unable to utilize most of carbon sources except d-glucose and l-arabinose. As a result, based on its unique phylogenetic clade and taxonomic characteristics, we conclude that strain SNUG30386T represents a novel species within the genus Clostridium , for which the name Clostridium fessum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the novel species is SNUG30386T (=KCTC 15633T= JCM 32258T).

Three enterococcal isolates, CCRI-16620, CCRI-16986T and CCRI-16985T, originating from water were characterized using morphological, biochemical and molecular taxonomic methods. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis classified all three strains in the Enterococcus faecalis species group. The phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the three isolates form two separate branches. The first branch is represented by strains CCRI-16620 and CCRI-16986T and the second branch by strain CCRI-16985T. Further sequence analysis of the housekeeping genes rpoA (encoding RNA polymerase α subunit), pheS (phenylalanyl-tRNA synthase), tufA (elongation factor Tu) and atpD (ATP synthase β-subunit) as well as the results of amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) DNA fingerprinting and DNA–DNA hybridization experiments confirmed the distinct status of these strains. Moreover, biochemical tests allowed phenotypic differentiation of the strains from the other species of the E. faecalis species group. On the basis of the results obtained, the names Enterococcus ureasiticus sp. nov. (type strain CCRI-16986T = CCUG 59304T = DSM 23328T = LMG 26304T) and Enterococcus quebecensis sp. nov. (type strain CCRI-16985T = CCUG 59306T = DSM 23327T = LMG 26306T) are proposed for the two hitherto undescribed species.

A taxonomic study of two fluorescent Pseudomonas strains (HJ/4T and SJ/9/1T) isolated from calcite moonmilk samples obtained from two caves in the Moravian Karst in the Czech Republic was carried out. Results of initial 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis assigned both strains into the genus Pseudomonas and showed Pseudomonas yamanorum 8H1T as their closest neighbour with 99.8 and 99.7 % 16S rRNA gene similarities to strains HJ/4T and SJ/9/1T, respectively. Subsequent sequence analysis of rpoD, rpoB and gyrB housekeeping genes confirmed the highest similarity of both isolates to P. yamanorum 8H1T, but phylogeny and sequences similarities implied that they are representatives of two novel species within the genus Pseudomonas . Further study comprising whole-genome sequencing followed by average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization calculations, repetitive sequence-based PCR fingerprinting with the REP and ERIC primers, automated ribotyping with the EcoRI restriction endonuclease, cellular fatty acid analysis, quinone and polar lipid characterization, and extensive biotyping confirmed clear separation of both analysed strains from the remaining Pseudomonas species and showed that they represent two novel species within the genus Pseudomonas for which the names Pseudomonas karstica sp. nov. (type strain HJ/4T=CCM 7891T=LMG 27930T) and Pseudomonas spelaei sp. nov. (type strain SJ/9/1T=CCM 7893T=LMG 27931T) are suggested.

A short rod-shaped, Gram-stain-negative strain that can degrade multiple polymers was isolated from forest soil in China and designated as DSWY01T. The results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that this isolate shared high similarities with Pseudomonas alcaliphila NBRC 102411T (99.3 %), Pseudomonas mendocina NBRC 14162T (99.2%) and Pseudomonas oleovorans NBRC 13583T (99.0%). The results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence and multilocus sequence analysis (recA, gyrB, nuoD, glnS and rpoD) indicated that strain DSWY01T belongs to the genus Pseudomonas and is a member of the P. oleovorans group in an independent branch. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization between the genome of strain DSWY01T and the genomes of other species (ANIb 77.72–89.65 %; GGDC 15.50–31.10 %) showed that the isolate represents a novel species. The DNA G+C content of strain DSWY01T was 63.67 mol%, and the major cellular fatty acids (>15 %) were a mixture of C18 : 1ω7c/C18 : 1ω6c and C16 : 0. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine and two unidentified lipids, and the major quinone was CQ-10. The morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics of the isolate were then compared with those of reference type strains. The isolate differed considerably from its closest relatives and is representative of a novel species of Pseudomonas , for which the name Pseudomonas hydrolytica sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DSWY01T (=DSM 106702T=CCTCC AB 2018053T).

Strain CPCC 203383T, isolated from the surface-sterilized fruit of Cerasus pseudocerasus (Lindl.) G. Don, was taxonomically characterized based on a polyphasic investigation. It had the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with Ornithinimicrobium pekingense DSM 21552 (97.2 %) and O. kibberense DSM 17687T (97.2%). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the strain formed a distinct phyletic branch within the genus Ornithinimicrobium and the whole genome sequence data analyses supported that strain CPCC 203383T was phylogenetically related to the Ornithinimicrobium species. The isolate shared a range of phenotypic patterns reported for members of the genus Ornithinimicrobium , but also had a range of cultural, physiological and biochemical characteristics that separated it from related Ornithinimicrobium species. The menaquinone was MK-8(H4). The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), phosphatidylinositol (PI) and unidentified lipids (ULs). The major fatty acids (>5 %) were iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16:0, 9-methyl C16 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The cell wall peptidoglycan contains l-ornithine as diagnostic diamino acid and an interpeptide bridge consisting of L-Orn←L-Ala←Gly←D-Asp. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data indicated that the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Ornithinimicrobium, for which the name Ornithinimicrobium cerasi sp. nov. is proposed, with CPCC 203383T(=NBRC 113522T=KCTC 49200T) as the type strain. The DNA G+C composition is 72.3 mol%. The availability of new data allows for an emended description of the genus Ornithinimicrobium .

A Gram-strain-negative, facultatively anaerobic, motile, rod-shaped and flagellated marine bacterium, designated SM6T, was isolated from surface seawater collected in Daya Bay (Guangdong, China). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, multilocus sequence analysis, phylogenomic analysis of single-copy gene families and whole genome data showed that strain SM6T belonged to the genus Vibrio . The closest phylogenetic relatives of SM6T were Vibrio plantisponsor MSSRF60T (97.38 % 16S rRNA gene sequence pairwise similarity), Vibrio variabilis R-40492T (97.27 %), Vibrio aestuarianus ATCC 35048T (97.21 %) and Vibrio sagamiensis LC2-047T (97.3 %). Growth of strain SM6T occurred at 10–45 °C (optimum 30 °C), at pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum 6.0) and in the presence of 0–10 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 3–8 %). The predominant fatty acids (>10 %) were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c or/and C16 : 1 ω6c), C16 : 0 and summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c or/and C18 : 1 ω6c). The DNA G+C content of the assembled genomic sequences was 47.37 % for strain SM6T. Average nucleotide identity values between SM6T and its reference species were lower than the threshold for species delineation (95–96 %); in silico DNA–DNA hybridization further showed that the strains shared less than 70 % similarity. On the basis of evidence from the present polyphasic study, strain SM6T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Vibrio , for which the name Vibrio agarilyticus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SM6T (=KCTC 82076T=MCCC 1K04327 T).

A re-evaluation of the taxonomic position of two strains, 1383T and 2249, isolated from poppy seeds and tea leaves, which had been identified as Siccibacter turicensis (formerly Cronobacter zurichensis ), was carried out. The analysis included phenotypic characterization, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) of five housekeeping genes (atpD, fusA, glnS, gyrB and infB; 2034 bp) and ribosomal MLSA (53 loci; 22 511 bp). 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and MLSA showed that the strains formed an independent phylogenetic lineage, with Siccibacter turicensis LMG 23730T as the closest neighbour. Average nucleotide identity analysis and phenotypic analysis confirmed that these strains represent a novel species, for which the name Siccibacter colletis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 1383T ( = NCTC 14934T = CECT 8567T = LMG 28204T). An emended description of Siccibacter turicensis is also provided.

Strains LMG 27428T and LMG 27427 were isolated from the caecal content of a chicken and produced butyric, lactic and formic acids as major metabolic end products. The genomic DNA G+C contents of strains LMG 27428T and LMG 27427 were 40.4 and 38.8 mol%. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, both strains were most closely related to the generically misclassified Streptococcus pleomorphus ATCC 29734T. Strain LMG 27428T could be distinguished from S. pleomorphus ATCC 29734T based on production of more lactic acid and less formic acid in M2GSC medium, a higher DNA G+C content and the absence of activities of acid phosphatase and leucine, arginine, leucyl glycine, pyroglutamic acid, glycine and histidine arylamidases, while strain LMG 27428 was biochemically indistinguishable from S. pleomorphus ATCC 29734T. The novel genus Faecalicoccus gen. nov. within the family Erysipelotrichaceae is proposed to accommodate strains LMG 27428T and LMG 27427. Strain LMG 27428T ( = DSM 26963T) is the type strain of Faecalicoccus acidiformans sp. nov., and strain LMG 27427 ( = DSM 26962) is a strain of Faecalicoccus pleomorphus comb. nov. (type strain LMG 17756T = ATCC 29734T = DSM 20574T). Furthermore, the nearest phylogenetic neighbours of the genus Faecalicoccus are the generically misclassified Eubacterium cylindroides DSM 3983T (94.4 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to strain LMG 27428T) and Eubacterium biforme DSM 3989T (92.7 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to strain LMG 27428T). We present genotypic and phenotypic data that allow the differentiation of each of these taxa and propose to reclassify these generically misnamed species of the genus Eubacterium formally as Faecalitalea cylindroides gen. nov., comb. nov. and Holdemanella biformis gen. nov., comb. nov., respectively. The type strain of Faecalitalea cylindroides is DSM 3983T = ATCC 27803T = JCM 10261T and that of Holdemanella biformis is DSM 3989T = ATCC 27806T = CCUG 28091T.
