Unraveling Genomic and Pathogenic Features of <i>Aeromonas ichthyocola</i> sp. nov., <i>Aeromonas mytilicola</i> sp. nov., and <i>Aeromonas mytilicola</i> subsp. <i>aquatica</i> subsp. nov.

ABSTRACT: The Gram-negative genus Aeromonas contains diverse bacterial species that are prevalent in aquatic environments. This present study describes three novel Aeromonas strains: A. ichthyocola sp. nov. A-5^T and A. mytilicola subsp. aquatica subsp. nov. A-8^T isolated from rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), and A. mytilicola sp. nov. A-7^T isolated from mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis), respectively. Genomic analyses revealed that strains A-5^T and A-7^T shared the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with A. rivipollensis P2G1^T (99.7% and 99.8%, respectively), while strain A-8^T exhibited 99.7% identity with A. media RM^T.
