Abstract
We here describe a novel, Gram-stain positive, catalase positive and oxidase negative bacterium isolated from pyothorax samples of cats. The four described strains 14KM1171, 17KM0085, 22MD1345 and 22MD1512T have a genome size of 2.35-2.40 Mb and a DNA G+C content of 68.3-68.4 mol%. They are genetically most closely related to Buchananella hordeovulneris with a 16S rRNA similarity of 96.9%, digital DNA-DNA hybridization value of 15% and an average nucleotide identity of 73.5%, all clearly below the species threshold. The major cellular fatty acids (C16:0, C15:0 anteiso and C14:0) are the same as in B. hordeovulneris supporting classification in that genus. We therefore propose that our isolates represent a novel species with the name Buchananella felis sp. nov. with type strain 22MD1512T (=CCOS 2118T=DSM 117562T).
期刊介绍:
Published by the Microbiology Society and owned by the International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes (ICSP), a committee of the Bacteriology and Applied Microbiology Division of the International Union of Microbiological Societies, International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology is the leading forum for the publication of novel microbial taxa and the ICSP’s official journal of record for prokaryotic names.
The journal welcomes high-quality research on all aspects of microbial evolution, phylogenetics and systematics, encouraging submissions on all prokaryotes, yeasts, microfungi, protozoa and microalgae across the full breadth of systematics including:
Identification, characterisation and culture preservation
Microbial evolution and biodiversity
Molecular environmental work with strong taxonomic or evolutionary content
Nomenclature
Taxonomy and phylogenetics.
