<i>Streptococcus suivaginalis</i> sp. nov., <i>Streptococcus iners</i> sp. nov. and <i>Streptococcus iners</i> subsp. <i>hyiners</i> subsp. nov. isolated from pigs.

ABSTRACT: Three novel strains within the genus Streptococcus (29887^T, 29892^T and 29896^T) were isolated from healthy pigs during routine veterinary physical exams. All three strains were non-motile and non-spore-forming Gram-positive cocci. The complete genome of each strain was attained, and phylogenetic analyses were performed. Comparison of the genomes of 29887^T, 29892^T and 29896^T to the genomes of other Streptococcus strains revealed digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between 21.2% and 53.9% and average nucleotide identity (ANI) values between 70.00% and 94.44%. Phylogenetic analyses suggested that each strain, 29896^T (S. suivaginalis sp. nov.), 29887^T (S. iners sp. nov.) a
