Project description:Strains Marseille-Q5893 (= CSUR Q5893 = CECT 30496) and Marseille-Q5883 (= CSUR Q5883 = CECT 30497) were isolated from vaginal samples using the culturomics approach. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of each strain were sequenced and then compared by BLASTn to the NCBI database. Strains Marseille-Q5893 and Marseille-Q5883 were most closely related to Anaerococcus obesiensis and Finegoldia magna, with identities of 98.5% and 90.0%, respectively. Strain Marseille-Q5893 is strictly anaerobic, while strain Marseille-Q5883 is facultative anaerobic. Both strains are Gram-positive, coccus-shaped, oxidase- and catalase-negative. The most abundant fatty acid for both strains is hexadecanoic acid, followed by 9-octadecenoic acid and tetradecanoic acid. Strain Marseille-Q5893 has a genome size of 1,831,271 bp with a G+C content of 29.4 mol%, whereas strain Marseille-Q5883 has a genome of 1,997,945 bp with a 33.6 mol% G+C content. The genomic comparison of closely related species with strains Marseille-Q5893 and Marseille-Q5883 showed that all digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) and orthologous average nucleotide identity (OrthoANI) values were lower than the published species thresholds (70% and 95-96%, respectively). Based on these data, we conclude that strain Marseille-Q5893 belongs to a new species in the family Peptoniphilaceae and strain Marseille-Q5883 belongs to a new genus in the family Peptostreptococcaceae. For these two new bacterial species, the names Anaerococcus ihuae sp. nov. and Mediannikoviicoccus vaginalis gen. nov., sp. nov., were proposed.

Project description:Two bacterial strains, 9H-EGSET and 15D-MOBT, were isolated from small freshwater habitats located near Salzburg, Austria. They showed the highest 16S rRNA sequence similarities of 100% and 99.9%, respectively, with type strains of species of the genus Aquirufa (Bacteroidota). Genome-based phylogenetic reconstructions with 119 amino acid sequences assigned the new taxa to the two distinct branches of the genus Aquirufa. Whole-genome average nucleotide identities were calculated with all possible pairs belonging to the genus. Values between 75.4% and 88.6% revealed that the two new strains represent each a new species. Like all, so far described members of the genus, they grew aerobically and chemoorganotrophically, were rod-shaped, red-pigmented, and motile by gliding, and showed genome sizes of about 3 Mbp and G + C values of about 40%. They could be distinguished by some phenotypic and chemotaxonomic features from their nearest related species. Until now, strain 9H-EGSET is the only one among the Aquirufa strains which contained traces of MK8 as respiratory quinone, and strain 15D-MOBT is the only one that formed tiny orange globules in liquid medium. The genome of strain 9H-EGSET comprised genes for the complete light-harvesting rhodopsin / retinal system, in the case of 15D-MOBT genes predicted for a nitrous oxide reductase were present. For the two new species of the genus Aquirufa, we propose to establish the names Aquirufa lenticrescens for strain 9H-EGSET (= JCM 34077 T = CIP 111926 T) and Aquirufa aurantiipilula for strain 15D-MOBT (= JCM 34078 T = CIP 111925 T).

Project description:We examined the relative roles of acetogenic and sulfate-reducing bacteria in H2 consumption in a previously characterized subsurface sandstone ecosystem. Enrichment cultures originally inoculated with ground sandstone material obtained from a Cretaceous formation in central New Mexico were grown with hydrogen in a mineral medium supplemented with 0.02% yeast extract. Sulfate reduction and acetogenesis occurred in these cultures, and the two most abundant organisms carrying out the reactions were isolated. Based on 16S rRNA analysis data and on substrate utilization patterns, these organisms were named Desulfomicrobium hypogeium sp. nov. and Acetobacterium psammolithicum sp. nov. The steady-state H2 concentrations measured in sandstone-sediment slurries (threshold concentration, 5 nM), in pure cultures of sulfate reducers (threshold concentration, 2 nM), and in pure cultures of acetogens (threshold concentrations 195 to 414 nM) suggest that sulfate reduction is the dominant terminal electron-accepting process in the ecosystem examined. In an experiment in which direct competition for H2 between D. hypogeium and A. psammolithicum was examined, sulfate reduction was the dominant process.

Project description:Two acidophilic strains, designated as ALEF1T and S30H14T, were isolated from acid mine drainage sediment. Cells of both strains were Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, endospore-forming rods. Strains ALEF1T and S30H14T were acidophilic and mesophilic, the former grew at 20-40 °C (optimum, 30 °C) and pH 2.5-4.5 (optimum, pH 3.5), while the latter grew at 20-45 °C (optimum, 30 °C) and pH 2.0-5.5 (optimum, pH 4.5). The 16S rRNA gene-based sequence analysis revealed that strains ALEF1T and S30H14T belonged to the genus Alicyclobacillus, and were phylogenetically close to Alicyclobacillus ferrooxydans TC-34T with 97.1 and 97.4% similarity, respectively. The similarity between the two novel strains was 98.6 %. The average nucleotide identity value between the genome sequences of ALEF1T and S30H14T was 79.5 %, and that between each of the two isolates and A. ferrooxydans TC-34T were 72.0 and 74.3 %. In addition, the digital DNA-DNA hybridization value between ALEF1T and S30H14T was 24.9 %, between strain ALEF1T and A. ferrooxydans TC-34T was 21.7 %, and between S30H14T and A. ferrooxydans TC-34T was 26.3 %, far below the interspecies threshold. Both strains could utilize diverse carbon sources for heterotrophic growth; strain ALEF1T could utilize ferrous iron as the energy source for autotrophic growth. Menaquinone 7 was the only quinone detected in either strain. Both strains contained anteiso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0, while ω-alicyclic fatty acids were not detected. Based on their phylogenetic positions, as well as phenotypic and genomic data, it is considered that strains ALEF1T and S30H14T represent two novel species within the genus Alicyclobacillus, for which the names Alicyclobacillus curvatus sp. nov. (type strain ALEF1T=CGMCC 1.17055T=KCTC 43124T) and Alicyclobacillus mengziensis sp. nov. (S30H14T=CGMCC 1.17050T=KCTC 43125T) are proposed.

Project description:Two novel strains, HW T2.11T and HW T5.17T, were isolated from decaying wood (forest of Champenoux, France). Study of the 16S rRNA sequence similarity indicated that the novel strains belong to the genus Acidisoma. The sequence similarity of the 16S rRNA gene of HW T2.11T with the corresponding sequences of A. tundrae and A. sibiricum was 97.30% and 97.25%, while for HW T5.17T it was 96.85% and 97.14%, respectively. The DNA G+C contents of the strains were 62.32-62.50%. Cells were Gram-negative coccobacilli that had intracellular storage granules (poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (P3HB)) that confer resistance to environmental stress conditions. They were mesophilic and acidophilic organisms growing at 8-25 °C, at a pH of 2.0-6.5, and were capable of using a wide range of organic compounds and complex biopolymers such as starch, fucoidan, laminarin, pectin and cellulose, the latter two being involved in wood composition. The major cellular fatty acid was cyclo C19:0ω8c and the major quinone was Q-10. Overall, genome relatedness indices between genomes of strains HW T2.11T and HW T5.17T (Orthologous Average Nucleotide Identity (OrthoANI) value = 83.73% and digital DNA-DNA hybridization score = 27.5%) confirmed that they belonged to two different species. Genetic predictions indicate that the cyclopropane fatty acid (CFA) pathway is present, conferring acid-resistance properties to the cells. The two novel strains might possess a class IV polyhydroxyalcanoate (PHA) synthase operon involved in the P3HB production pathway. Overall, the polyphasic taxonomic analysis shows that these two novel strains are adapted to harsh environments such as decaying wood where the organic matter is difficult to access, and can contribute to the degradation of dead wood. These strains represent novel species of the genus Acidisoma, for which the names Acidisoma silvae sp. nov. and Acidisomacellulosilytica sp. nov. are proposed. The type strains of Acidisoma silvae and Acidisomacellulosilytica are, respectively, HW T2.11T (DSM 111006T; UBOCC-M-3364T) and HW T5.17T (DSM 111007T; UBOCC-M-3365T).

Project description:Here we describe the basic characteristics of Corynebacterium pacaense strain Marseille-P2417T (= CSUR P2417), Alistipes megaguti strain Marseille-P5997T (= CSUR P5997) and Alistipes provencensis strain Marseille-P2431T (= CSUR P2431 = DSM 102308). The phenotypic criteria, the 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing and MALDI-TOF MS spectra analysis were used to identify and characterize these new bacteria species, which were isolated from fresh human stool specimens.

Project description:Six strictly anaerobic Gram-negative bacteria representing three novel species were isolated from the female reproductive tract. The proposed type strains for each species were designated UPII 199-6T, KA00182T and BV3C16-1T. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing indicated that the bacterial isolates were members of the genus Megasphaera. UPII 199-6T and KA00182T had 16S rRNA gene sequence identities of 99.9 % with 16S rRNA clone sequences previously amplified from the human vagina designated as Megasphaera type 1 and Megasphaera type 2, members of the human vaginal microbiota associated with bacterial vaginosis, preterm birth and HIV acquisition. UPII 199-6T exhibited sequence identities ranging from 92.9 to 93.6 % with validly named Megasphaera isolates and KA00182T had 16S rRNA gene sequence identities ranging from 92.6-94.2 %. BV3C16-1T was most closely related to Megasphaera cerevisiae with a 16S rRNA gene sequence identity of 95.4 %. Cells were coccoid or diplococcoid, non-motile and did not form spores. Genital tract isolates metabolized organic acids but were asaccharolytic. The isolates also metabolized amino acids. The DNA G+C content for the genome sequences of UPII 199-6T, KA00182T and BV3C16-1T were 46.4, 38.9 and 49.8 mol%, respectively. Digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity between the genital tract isolates and other validly named Megasphaera species suggest that each isolate type represents a new species. The major fatty acid methyl esters include the following: C12 : 0, C16 : 0, C16 : 0 dimethyl acetal (DMA) and summed feature 5 (C15 : 0 DMA and/or C14 : 0 3-OH) in UPII 199-6T; C16 : 0 and C16 : 1cis 9 in KA00182T; C12 : 0; C14 : 0 3-OH; and summed feature 5 in BV3C16-1T. The isolates produced butyrate, isobutyrate, and isovalerate but there were specific differences including production of formate and propionate. Together, these data indicate that UPII 199-6T, KA00182T and BV3C16-1T represent novel species within the genus Megasphaera. We propose the following names: Megasphaera lornae sp. nov. for UPII 199-6T representing the type strain of this species (=DSM 111201T=ATCC TSD-205T), Megasphaera hutchinsoni sp. nov. for KA00182T representing the type strain of this species (=DSM 111202T=ATCC TSD-206T) and Megasphaera vaginalis sp. nov. for BV3C16-1T representing the type strain of this species (=DSM 111203T=ATCC TSD-207T).

Project description:Two new bacterial strains, Marseille-P4126 (=CSURP4126) and Marseille-P4593 (=CSURP4593), were isolated from the vaginal sample of a French woman with vaginosis. These strains were identified and characterized using the taxonogenomics method. The findings from phylogenetic tree interpretation, phenotypic criteria and genomic analysis provided here distinctly display that Atopobium massiliense sp. nov. and Butyricimonas vaginalis sp. nov. are new members of the genus Atopobium and Butyricimonas, respectively.

Project description:Blood is precious tissue that is normally sterile. With the aim of diagnosing the cause of bacteremia, three bacterial strains were isolated from three different individuals. Strains Marseille-P7157T and Marseille-Q2854T are Gram-stain positive, non-spore-forming rod-shaped bacteria, while strain Marseille-P8049T is a Gram-stain negative, motile, non-spore-forming and rod-shaped bacterium. The major fatty acids found (>30%) were hexadecanoic acid for strain Marseille-P8049T and 12-methyl tetradecanoic acid for both strains Marseille-P7157T and Marseille-P2854T. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis shows that strains Marseille-P8049 and Marseille-Q2854T have sequence similarity of 96.8%, 99.04%, and 98.3% with Acinetobacter ursingii strain LUH3792 (NR_025392.1), Gulosibacter faecalis strain B187 (NR_041812.1), and Schaalia canis strain CCUG 41706 (NR_025366.1), respectively. In addition, strains Marseille-Q2854T, Marseille-P8049T and Marseille-P7157T shared with their closely related species cited above the following DDH values: 19.5%, 24.4%, and 20.2%, respectively. Based on these phenotypic and genomic findings, we consider that strains Marseille-P8049T (= CSUR P8049 = CECT 30350), Marseille-P2854T ( = CSUR Q2854 = CECT 30120) and Marseille-P7157T ( = CSUR P7157 = CECT 30048) are new bacterial species, for which the names Acinetobacter ihumii sp. nov., Microbacterium ihumii sp. nov., and Gulosibacter massiliensis sp. nov., are proposed.
