Abstract
Two Gram-stain-positive bacterial strains, designated 213-9(3)T and 30-1(2)T, were isolated from traditional Chinese pickle, and were characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain 213-9(3)T was most closely related to Levilactobacillus paucivorans TMW 1.1424T, Levilactobacillus huananensis 151-2BT and Levilactobacillus lindianensis 220-4T, having 99.7-99.9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities; strain 30-1(2)T was most closely related to Lapidilactobacillus achengensis 247-4T, with 99.4 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. Strain 213-9(3)T shared the highest pheS (93.9 %), rpoA (99.3 %) and concatenated pheS and rpoA (97.5 %) sequence similarities to L. paucivorans TMW 1.1424T. Strain 30-1(2)T had the highest pheS (82.4 %), rpoA (95.5 %) and concatenated pheS and rpoA (91.2 %) sequence similarities to L. achengensis 247-4T. The phylogenetic relationships based on concatenated pheS and rpoA sequences and whole genome sequences were identical to those based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. Strain 213-9(3)T exhibited the highest average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values (92.7 and 48.8 %, respectively) to L. paucivorans DSM 22467T. Strain 30-1(2)T had the highest ANI (84.4 %) and dDDH (32.8 %) values with L. achengensis 247-4T. Acid production from d-galactose, d-glucose, d-mannose, N-acetyl-β-glucosaminidase, arbutin, salicin, cellobiose, maltose, gentiobiose, d-tagatose and gluconate, hydrolysis of aesculin, and activity of cystine arylamidase could differentiate strain 213-9(3)T from L. paucivorans DSM 22467T. Acid production from l-arabinose, d-ribose, d-xylose and d-galactose, and activity of alkaline phosphatase, esterase (C4), α-mannosidase and α-fucosidase could differentiate strain 30-1(2)T from L. achengensis 247-4T. Based upon the data obtained in the present study, two novel species, Levilactobacillus humaensis sp. nov. and Lapidilactobacillus luobeiensis sp. nov., are proposed and the type strains are 213-9(3)T (=CCM 9241T=CCTCC AB 2022115T=JCM 35554T) and 30-1(2)T (=CCM 9240T=CCTCC AB 2022114T=JCM 35553T), respectively.

Abstract
Lactobacillus kosoi Chiou et al. 2018 and Lactobacillus micheneri McFrederick et al. 2018 are closely related, and they share 100 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, 99.6 % pheS gene sequence similarity, 100 % rpoA gene sequence similarity, 97.3 % average nucleotide identity (ANI) value and 76.6 % in silico DNA-DNA hybridization (isDDH) value, indicating that they represent the same species. Fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) analysis and phenotypic characterization also indicated that L. kosoi and L. micheneri are very similar. We propose L. kosoi Chiou et al. 2018 as a later heterotypic synonym of L. micheneri McFrederick et al. 2018. The taxonomic position of Lactobacillus plantarum subsp. argentoratensis in the L. plantarum group was re-examined using a polyphasic approach, including sequence analyses of 16S rRNA, pheS, rpoA and recA genes, average nucleotide identity analysis, in silico DNA-DNA hybridization, fatty acid methyl ester analysis and phenotypic characterization. Results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that L. plantarum subsp. argentoratensis was closely related to L. plantarum subsp. plantarum, L. pentosus and L. paraplantarum in the L. plantarum group, sharing 99.6-99.7 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities. Results of pheS, rpoA and recA gene sequence analyses indicated that L. plantarum subsp. argentoratensis was most closely related to L. plantarum subsp. plantarum, having 91.8 % pheS gene sequence similarity, 98.9 % rpoA gene sequence similarity and 93.1 % recA gene sequence similarity. L. plantarum subsp. argentoratensis DSM 16365T shared 95.6 % ANI value and 62.9 % isDDH value with L. plantarum subsp. plantarum ATCC 14917T. The low isDDH value confirmed that L. plantarum subsp. argentoratensis and L. plantarum subsp. plantarum represent two different species, rather than two different subspecies in the L. plantarum group. On the basis of the data from polyphasic characterization obtained in the present study and in previous studies, L. plantarum subsp. argentoratensis is elevated to the species level and represents a novel species of the genus Lactobacillus, for which the name Lactobacillus argentoratensis sp. nov. is proposed and the type strain is DKO 22T (=CIP 108320T=DSM 16365T=JCM 16169T). Two novel Gram-stain-positive bacterial strains, designated 1206-1T and F027-1-2, were isolated from traditional pickle in Heilongjiang Province, PR China, and from the intestinal tract of a honey bee (Apis mellifera) in Hubei Province, PR China, respectively. The two bacteria were characterized by a polyphasic approach, including 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, pheS gene sequence analysis, rpoA gene sequence analysis, fatty acid methyl ester analysis, average nucleotide identity analysis, in silico DNA-DNA hybridization analysis and an analysis of phenotypic features. The results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strains 1206-1T and F027-1-2 were distantly related to Lactobacillus sharpeae, Lactobacillus hulanensis, Lactobacillus songhuajiangensis, Lactobacillus pantheris, Lactobacillus thailandensis, Lactobacillus camelliae, Lactobacillus jixianensis, Lactobacillus nasuensis, Lactobacillus baoqingensis, Lactobacillus manihotivorans and Lactobacillus porcinae. Strain 1206-1T exhibited 94.2-96.4 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities, 69.5-83.3 % pheS gene sequence similarities and 73.1-90.3 % rpoA gene sequence similarities to type strains of phylogenetically related species. ANI and isDDH values between strain 1206-1T and the type strains of phylogenetically related species were 52.7-73.7 % and 21.1-30.1 %, respectively. On the basis of the data obtained in the present study, a novel species, Lactobacillus zhaodongensis sp. nov. is proposed and the type strain is 1206-1T (=CCM 8981T=CCTCC AB 2019200T=LMG 31620T).

[PMID: 32460704 PMCID: PMC7251713 DOI: 10.1186/s12866-020-01820-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2019] [Accepted: 05/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Lactococcus members belonging to lactic acid bacteria are widely used as starter bacteria in the production of fermented dairy products. From kimchi, a Korean food made of fermented vegetables, Lactococcus raffinolactis WiKim0068 was isolated and its genome was analyzed. Results The complete genome of the strain WiKim0068 consists of one chromosome and two plasmids that comprises 2,292,235 bp, with a G + C content of 39.7 mol%. Analysis of orthoANI values among Lactococcus genome sequences showed that the strain WiKim0068 has > 67% sequence similarity to other species and subspecies. In addition, it displayed no antibiotic resistance and can metabolize nicotinate and nicotinamide (vitamin B3). Conclusion These results augments our understanding of the genus Lactococcus and suggest that this new strain has potential industrial applications.

A taxonomic note on the genus Lactobacillus: Description of 23 novel genera, emended description of the genus Lactobacillus Beijerinck 1901, and union of Lactobacillaceae and Leuconostocaceae. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2020; 70:2782-2858.

Abstract
The genus Lactobacillus comprises 261 species (at March 2020) that are extremely diverse at phenotypic, ecological and genotypic levels. This study evaluated the taxonomy of Lactobacillaceae and Leuconostocaceae on the basis of whole genome sequences. Parameters that were evaluated included core genome phylogeny, (conserved) pairwise average amino acid identity, clade-specific signature genes, physiological criteria and the ecology of the organisms. Based on this polyphasic approach, we propose reclassification of the genus Lactobacillus into 25 genera including the emended genus Lactobacillus, which includes host-adapted organisms that have been referred to as the Lactobacillus delbrueckii group, Paralactobacillus and 23 novel genera for which the names Holzapfelia, Amylolactobacillus, Bombilactobacillus, Companilactobacillus, Lapidilactobacillus, Agrilactobacillus, Schleiferilactobacillus, Loigolactobacilus, Lacticaseibacillus, Latilactobacillus, Dellaglioa, Liquorilactobacillus, Ligilactobacillus, Lactiplantibacillus, Furfurilactobacillus, Paucilactobacillus, Limosilactobacillus, Fructilactobacillus, Acetilactobacillus, Apilactobacillus, Levilactobacillus, Secundilactobacillus and Lentilactobacillus are proposed. We also propose to emend the description of the family Lactobacillaceae to include all genera that were previously included in families Lactobacillaceae and Leuconostocaceae. The generic term 'lactobacilli' will remain useful to designate all organisms that were classified as Lactobacillaceae until 2020. This reclassification reflects the phylogenetic position of the micro-organisms, and groups lactobacilli into robust clades with shared ecological and metabolic properties, as exemplified for the emended genus Lactobacillus encompassing species adapted to vertebrates (such as Lactobacillus delbrueckii, Lactobacillus iners, Lactobacillus crispatus, Lactobacillus jensensii, Lactobacillus johnsonii and Lactobacillus acidophilus) or invertebrates (such as Lactobacillus apis and Lactobacillus bombicola).
