<i>Campylobacter californiensis</i> sp. nov., isolated from cattle and feral swine.

ABSTRACT: Nine Campylobacter strains were isolated from cattle and feral swine faeces: three were recovered during a 2007 Campylobacter-associated outbreak linked to a dairy, and the other six were isolated during a 2009-2010 survey of farms and ranches in Central California. The species identification of these strains could not be determined by 16S rRNA gene sequencing but were most similar to Campylobacter concisus and Campylobacter mucosalis. Additional atpA typing indicated that the nine strains composed a discrete novel clade related to C. concisus and C. mucosalis. A polyphasic study was undertaken here to clarify their taxonomic position. Phylogenetic analyses were performed based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and the concatenated sequences of 330
