Isolation and characterization of tick-borne Roseomonas haemaphysalidis sp. nov. and rodent-borne Roseomonas marmotae sp. nov.

ABSTRACT: Four novel Gram-negative, mesophilic, aerobic, motile, and cocci-shaped strains were isolated from tick samples (strains 546^T and 573) and respiratory tracts of marmots (strains 1318^T and 1311). The 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed that strains 546^T and 573 were 97.8% identical to Roseomonas wenyumeiae Z23^T, whereas strains 1311 and 1318^T were 98.3% identical to Roseomonas ludipueritiae DSM 14915^T. In addition, a 98.0% identity was observed between strains 546^T and 1318^T. Phylogenetic and phylogenomic analyses revealed that strains 546^T and 573 clustered with R. wenyumeiae Z23^T, whereas strains 1311 and 1318^T grouped with R. ludipueritiae DSM 14915^T. The aver
