Abstract
We report seven draft genome sequences of Streptococcus canis strains revealing reduced penicillin-G susceptibility. The genomes measured 2.054-2.385 Mbp, with G+C contents of 38.8%-39.6%. Amino acid substitutions in penicillin-binding proteins were characterized as compared with those of NCTC 12191(T) genome sequence (GenBank accession number NZ_LR134293.1).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to identify the M protein trans-acting positive regulator (Mga) orthologue and its adjacent M-like protein (SCM) alleles in Streptococcus canis. RESULTS Using the 39 SCM allele isolates and polymerase chain reaction-based amplification and sequencing, we obtained the deduced Mga amino acid (AA) sequences. The 22 Mga sequences in whole-genome sequences were obtained by searching the National Collection of Type Cultures 12,191(T) Mga sequence into the database. The percentage identity to the type-strain Mga sequence was examined along with its size. The presence of the Mga-specific motifs was confirmed. Of the 62 strains, we identified 59 Mga sequences with an AA size of 509 (except for four different sizes). Percentage identity ranged from 96.66 to 100% with the confirmed Mga-specific motifs and diverse SCM allele populations. Our findings support the presence of an Mga orthologue and diverse SCM allele populations.

Abstract
Every basic course in microbiology teaches us, Streptococcus canis always tests positive for Lancefield group G. Surprisingly, we identified a strain of S. canis with Lancefield group C, cultured from a dog with otitis externa after lateral ear canal resection. Whole genome sequencing data and analysis points towards a horizontal gene transfer event between S. canis and S. dysgalactiae. Although these species are closely related, gene transfer in this region of the genome of S. canis has not been described before. The value of technologies as MALDI-TOF MS and sequencing in microbiological diagnostics will grow as more diverse streptococci arise that do not always conform anymore to the classical Lancefield group typing.

Abstract
Eye (including cornea) and ear canal are major sources of Streptococcus canis in companion animal practice. We aimed to clarify genotypic and phenotypic features of the eye-origin isolates in 2021 compared to ear-origin isolates in 2021 and eye-origin isolates in 2017. Of the 102 isolates in 2021, nine eye-origin isolates were enrolled, whereas twenty-one ear-origin isolates in 2021 and thirteen eye-origin isolates in 2017 were included as controls. Genotypic analyses included virulence-associated gene (VAG; inl, sagA, slo, scp, lbp, fbp, gbp, ap1, fp1, and brp) profiling, S. canis M-like protein (SCM) allele typing, multilocus sequence typing, and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genotyping: phenotypic analyses contained hemolytic activity (HA) measurement and AMR phenotyping. There was only one 2017-eye-origin isolate with high-level HA, while the others showed low-level HA. We observed no association of the 2021-eye-origin population with detection rate of each VAG. There was no association of the 2021-eye-origin population with main SCM allele 2. We found significant association of the 2021-eye-origin population with main clonal complex (CC) 46 containing sequence type (ST) 46/ST2. There was significant association of the 2021-eye-origin population with AMR phenotypes/genotypes. Our observations suggest the unique microbiological features (CC46 having AMR phenotypes/genotypes) among the 2021-eye-origin population.

Abstract
Using bacterial pan-genome obtained through whole genome sequencing (WGS), coding DNA sequences (CDSs) can be clustered into pan-genome orthologous groups (POGs). We aimed to investigate comparative genomic features of Streptococcus canis based on POG analysis and to determine CDSs specific to prevalent sequence type (ST) 9. Twenty WGS datasets on S. canis strains from invasive and non-invasive specimens were retrieved from the National Center for Biotechnology Information Assembly database. Based on the WGS data, we performed comparative genome hybridization (CGH), pan- and core-genome prediction, Venn diagram test with five ST9 strains, and phylogenetic analysis, with ST determination. We compared the CDSs between seven ST9 and 13 non-ST9 strains. We observed genomic diversity based on CGH and Venn diagram. The predicted pan- and core-genomes contained 4,772 and 1,403 genes, respectively. We found five clades consisting of different STs (ST1, ST44/2, ST13/14, ST21/15/41, and ST9) based on phylogenetic tree. There were differences in four pathways (DNA restriction-modification system, DNA-mediated transposition, extracellular region, and response to oxidative stress) regulated by CDSs specific to ST9. Our findings describe genomic diversity in CGH and Venn diagram, pan- and core-genomes, five clades of genomes consisting of different STs, and unique CDS features associated to ST9.

Abstract
This study assessed biofilm production ability (BPA) and other microbiological features of Streptococcus canis strains. Companion animal-origin 40 strains from each year (2015/2017) were randomly selected with the host information, and three blood-origin strains from 2 humans/1 dog were included. We measured BPA using crystal violet staining, along with S. canis M-like protein (SCM) allele typing, sequence type (ST) determination, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) phenotyping/genotyping, and virulence-associated gene profiling (gbp-ap1-fp1-brp). BPA measurements revealed that 35 strains with BPA and 48 strains without BPA. There was association of the producer with isolation year (2017). We found association between the non-producer and SCM allele 1/ST9: there was association of the producer with SCM allele 10/ST21. We observed correlation between the producer and presence of AMR genotypes. There was association between the producer and ap1 detection and between non-producer and gbp detection. Our observations suggest the correlation between the producer and other microbiological features (isolation year/SCM allele type 10/ST21/presence of AMR genotypes/ap1 detection).

Abstract
Streptococcus canis is a common colonizing bacterium of the urogenital tract of cats and dogs that can also cause invasive disease in these animal populations and in humans. Although the virulence mechanisms of S. canis are not well-characterized, an M-like protein, SCM, has recently identified been as a potential virulence factor. SCM is a surface-associated protein that binds to host plasminogen and IgGs suggesting its possible importance in host-pathogen interactions. In this study, we developed in vitro and ex vivo blood component models and murine models of S. canis vaginal colonization, systemic infection, and dermal infection to compare the virulence potential of the zoonotic S. canis vaginal isolate G361 and its isogenic SCM-deficient mutant (G361∆scm). We found that while S. canis establishes vaginal colonization and causes invasive disease in vivo, the contribution of the SCM protein to virulence phenotypes in these models is modest. We conclude that SCM is dispensable for invasive disease in murine models and for resistance to human blood components ex vivo, but may contribute to mucosal persistence, highlighting a potential contribution to the recently appreciated genetic diversity of SCM across strains and hosts.

Abstract
This study evaluated the cell invasion ability (CIA) of Streptococcus canis isolates, and clarified the relationship between high-frequency CIA and its microbiological features. Of the companion animal-origin isolates (n = 117) that were obtained in 2017, 40 isolates were randomly selected with the host information, with two human blood-origin isolates included. CIA was measured using human colon carcinoma epithelium and the hemolytic activity (HA) using sheep blood, along with S. canis M-like protein (SCM) allele typing, sequence type (ST) determination, and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) phenotyping/genotyping. CIA measurements revealed that 19 and 24 isolates had high- and low-frequencies, respectively. HA assessment revealed that 24 and 19 isolates were categorized as high- and low- level, respectively. No difference was observed in the high-/low-level HA between the high- /low-frequency CIA populations. A significant difference was found in the high-/low-frequency CIA between the SCM group I/II populations. Additionally, a significantly higher CIA was found in the SCM allele type 10/type 11 than in the others. A significant association was observed between high-frequency CIA and the ST21/ST41 populations. No difference was found in the high-/low-frequency CIA between the presence and absence of the AMR phenotype/genotype. These observations suggest a relationship between high-frequency CIA and its microbiological characteristics (SCM allele type 10/type 11 or ST21/ST41).
