Abstract
A novel bifidobacterium (designated F753-1T) was isolated from the gut of honeybee (Apis mellifera). Strain F753-1T was characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Strain F753-1T was phylogenetically related to the type strains of Bifidobacterium mizhiensis, Bifidobacterium asteroides, Bifidobacterium choladohabitans, Bifidobacterium mellis, Bifidobacterium apousia and Bifidobacterium polysaccharolyticum, having 98.4-99.8 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities. The phylogenomic tree indicated that strain F753-1T was most closely related to the type strains of B. mellis and B. choladohabitans. Strain F753-1T had the highest average nucleotide identity (94.1-94.5 %) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (56.3 %) values with B. mellis Bin7NT. Acid production from amygdalin, d-fructose, gentiobiose, d-mannose, maltose, sucrose and d-xylose, activity of α-galactosidase, pyruvate utilization and hydrolysis of hippurate could differentiate strain F753-1T from B. mellis CCUG 66113T and B. choladohabitans JCM 34586T. Based upon the data obtained in the present study, a novel species, Bifidobacterium apis sp. nov., is proposed, and the type strain is F753-1T (=CCTCC AB 2023227T=JCM 36562T=LMG 33388T).

Abstract
Three Gram-stain-positive bacterial strains (designated 231-9T, 142-6 and 463-4) were isolated from traditional Chinese pickle, and were characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strains 231-9T, 142-6 and 463-4 were phylogenetically related to the type strains of Lactiplantibacillus xiangfangensis, Lactiplantibacillus garii, Lactiplantibacillus carotarum, Lactiplantibacillus plajomi and Lactiplantibacillus modestisalitolerans, having 98.6-99.9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities. Strains 231-9T, 142-6 and 463-4 were most closely related to the type strain of L. xiangfangensis, having 99.9 % 16S rRNA gene, 95.6 % pheS, 99.4 % rpoA and 98.2 % concatenated pheS and rpoA sequence similarities. Relatively low pheS (95.6 %) sequence similarity indicated that strain 231-9T should be further identified. Strain 231-9T shared 99.7-99.9 % average nucleotide identity (ANI) and 98.8-98.9 % digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values with strains 142-6 and 463-4, indicating that they belonged to the same species. The ANI and dDDH values between strain 231-9T and L. xiangfangensis LMG 26013T were 92.4-92.9 and 49.6 %, respectively, less than the threshold for species demarcation (95-96% ANI and 70 % dDDH values, respectively), indicating that strains 231-9T, 142-6 and 463-4 represented a novel species within the genus Lactiplantibacillus. Acid production from d-ribose, d-adonitol, d-galactose and lactose, activity of β-galactosidase and β-glucosidase, Voges-Proskauer reaction, hydrolysis of hippurate, resistance to 5 µg ml-1 erythromycin, 100 µg ml-1 tetracycline hydrochloride, 50 µg ml-1 bacitracin, 300 µg ml-1 each of gentamicin sulphate, streptomycin sulphate and neomycin sulphate, tolerance to 6 % NaCl could distinguish strains 231-9T, 142-6 and 463-4 from L. xiangfangensis 3.1.1T. Based upon the data of polyphasic characterization obtained in the present study, a novel species, Lactiplantibacillus paraxiangfangensis sp. nov., is proposed and the type strain is 231-9T (=JCM 36258T=CCTCC AB 2023133T).

Abstract
Four lactic acid bacteria, designated F690T, F697, F790T and F769-2, were isolated from the gut of honeybee (Apis mellifera). Results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strains F690T and F697 were phylogenetically related to the type strains of Lactobacillus kimbladii, Lactobacillus laiwuensis, Lactobacillus kullabergensis and Lactobacillus huangpiensis, having 99.1-99.6 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities; and that strains F790T and F769-2 were most closely related to the type strain of Lactobacillus melliventris, having 99.2-99.3 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities. The phylogenies based on concatenated pheS, rpoA, gyrB, hsp60, recA, rpoB and tuf sequences and based on whole genome sequences were identical to that based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. Strains F690T and F697 exhibited the highest average nucleotide identity (ANI; 92.1-93.2 %), digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH; 50-50.1 %) and average amino acid identity (AAI; 94.9-95.1 %) values with L. kimbladii Hma2NT. Strains F790T and F769-2 had the highest ANI (93.1-94 %), dDDH (54.4 %) and AAI (94.4-94.7 %) values with L. melliventris Hma8NT. Based upon the data obtained in the present study, two novel species, Lactobacillus juensis sp. nov. and Lactobacillus rizhaonensis sp. nov., are proposed and the type strains are F690T (=JCM 36259T=CCTCC AB 2023131T) and F790T (=JCM 36260T=CCTCC AB 2023132T), respectively.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that Lactobacillus futsaii (now Companilactobacillus futsaii) can be subdivided at the subspecies level. The main purpose of this study is to explore whether this is correct by using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Lactobacillus futsaii subsp. chongqingii was proposed and effectively published in 2019. The names L. futsaii subsp. chongqingensis corrig. and Lactobacillus futsaii subsp. futsaii were not validated until March 2023. However, in the reclassification of the genus Lactobacillus by Zheng et al. in April 2020, L. futsaii was transferred to Companilactobacillus as Companilactobacillus futsaii. So Lactobacillus futsaii subsp. chongqingensis and Lactobacillus futsaii subsp. futsaii should be transferred to Companilactobacillus futsaii now. In the present study, the relationship between L. futsaii subsp. chongqingensis and L. futsaii subsp. futsaii was re-evaluated. The type strains of L. futsaii subsp. chongqingensis and L. futsaii subsp. futsaii shared identical pheS and rpoA sequences, high dDDH value, similar phenotypic characteristics and fatty acid compositions, indicating that they belonged to the same subspecies. Here, we propose to reclassify Lactobacillus futsaii subsp. chongqingensis and Lactobacillus futsaii subsp. futsaii as Companilactobacillus futsaii subsp. chongqingensis comb. nov. and Companilactobacillus futsaii subsp. futsaii comb. nov., respectively, and Companilactobacillus futsaii subsp. chongqingensis as a later heterotypic synonym of Companilactobacillus futsaii subsp. futsaii.

Abstract
Lentilactobacillus rapi subsp. dabitei was proposed by Li et al. in 2022. The type strains of L. rapi subsp. dabitei and L. rapi subsp. rapi shared 93.1 % average nucleotide identity and 52.8 % digital DNA-DNA hybridization values. Strain IMAU80584T was proposed as a novel subspecies of L. rapi rather than a novel species of the genus Lentilactobacillus on the basis of similar phenotypic characteristics (including growth temperature and pH, tolerance to NaCl and features based on API 50CH and API ZYM). However, the phenotypic investigation performed by Li et al. was insufficient because some physiological and biochemical characteristics recommended by Mattarelli et al. were not included. In the present study, the taxonomic relationship between L. rapi subsp. dabitei and L. rapi subsp. rapi was re-evaluated. Based upon the data obtained in the present study, we propose to elevate L. rapi subsp. dabitei to the species level as Lentilactobacillus dabitei sp. nov. The type strain is IMAU80584T (=GDMCC 1.2566T=JCM 34647T).

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
Four Gram-stain-positive bacterial strains were isolated from the gut of honeybee (Apis mellifera) in China. These strains were characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The data demonstrated that three of the four strains represented two novel species of the genus
Lactobacillus
, strains F306-1T and F551-2T were designated as the type strains. Results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strains F306-1T, F447 and F551-2T were phylogenetically related to the type strains of
Lactobacillus kimbladii
and
Lactobacillus kullabergensis
, having 99.1–99.7 % 16S rRNA gene sequence (about 1400 bp) similarities. The phylogenetic tree based on concatenated pheS, rpoA, gyrB, hsp60, recA, rpoB and tuf sequences (4114 bp) and the phylogenomic tree based on whole genome sequences indicated that strains F306-1T and F447 were most closely related to
L. kullabergensis
Biut2NT, and strain F551-2T was most closely related to
L. kimbladii
Hma2NT. Strains F306-1T and F447 shared 99.9 % average nucleotide identity (ANI), 99.7 % digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) and 99.9 % average amino acid identity (AAI) values, indicating that they belong to the same species. Strain F306-1T exhibited the highest ANI (94.4 %), dDDH (56.7 %) and AAI (94.7 %) values to
L. kullabergensis
Biut2NT. Strain F551-2T had the highest ANI (94.0 %), dDDH (54.3 %) and AAI (95.8 %) values with
L. kimbladii
Hma2NT. Acid production from amygdalin, maltose, starch, gentiobiose and turanose, activity of esterase (C4) and α-glucosidase, growth with 3 % NaCl at 37 °C under strict anaerobic condition (on mMRS agar plates), and growth with 1–6% NaCl at 37 °C under aerobic condition (on mMRS agar plates supplemented with 0.05 % cysteine or with 1 % cysteine and 2 % fructose) could differentiate strains F306-1T and F447 from
L. kullabergensis
DSM 26262T. Acid production from d-glucose, arbutin and gentiobiose, growth with 3 % NaCl at 37 °C under strict anaerobic condition (on mMRS agar plates), and growth at 45 °C under strict anaerobic condition (on mMRS agar plates) could differentiate strain F551-2T from
L. kimbladii
DSM 26263T. Based upon the data obtained in the present study, two novel species, Lactobacillus huangpiensis sp. nov. and Lactobacillus laiwuensis sp. nov., are proposed and the type strains are F306-1T (=LMG 32144T=JCM 34361T=CCTCC AB 2020300T) and F551-2T (=JCM 34502T=CCTCC AB 2021027T), respectively.

Abstract
In 2014, Rahkila et al. transferred Leuconostoc gasicomitatum to Leuconostoc gelidum as L. gelidum subsp. gasicomitatum comb. nov. based on a 75 % DNA-DNA hybridization value. In the present study, the taxonomic status of L. gelidum subsp. gasicomitatum is re-evaluated by a polyphasic approach, including 16S rRNA, pheS, rpoA, recA, and atpA gene sequence analyses, phylogenomic treeing, analyses of ANI (average nucleotide identity) and dDDH (digital DNA-DNA hybridization), fatty acid methyl ester analysis and a phenotypic characterization. On the basis of the ANI and dDDH values, we propose to reject the proposal of Rahkila et al. to reclassify L. gasicomitatum as L. gelidum subsp. gasicomitatum.

Abstract
Currently, Lactococcus garvieae contains two subspecies: L. garvieae subsp. bovis and L. garvieae subsp. garvieae. In a study by Varsha and Nampoothiri, high pheS (99.7 %) and rpoA (99.6 %) sequence similarities indicated that L. garvieae subsp. bovis and Lactococcus formosensis probably have a close taxonomic relationship; low pheS (92.2 %) and rpoA (97.8 %) sequence similarities and relatively low DNA-DNA hybridization value (75.8 %) indicated that L. garvieae subsp. bovis and L. garvieae subsp. garvieae probably represent two different species. In the present study, the taxonomic relationships between L. garvieae subsp. bovis, L. garvieae subsp. garvieae and L. formosensis were re-examined based on sequence analyses of 16S rRNA, pheS, recA, rpoA and rpoB genes, average nucleotide identity (ANI), digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values, average amino acid identity (AAI), fatty acid methyl ester analysis and phenotypic characterization. L. garvieae subsp. bovis LMG 30663T exhibited 97.3 % ANI, 78.3 % dDDH and 96.4 % AAI values to L. formosensis NBRC 109475T, higher than the threshold for species demarcation (95-96, 70 and 95-96 %, respectively), indicating that L. garvieae subsp. bovis LMG 30663T and L. formosensis NBRC 109475T belong to the same species. L. garvieae subsp. bovis LMG 30663T had 91.2 % ANI, 43.3 % dDDH and 92.9-93.0% AAI values with the type strain of L. garvieae subsp. garvieae, indicating that they represent two different species. Because L. formosensis has been proposed and validated before L. garvieae subsp. bovis, L. garvieae subsp. bovis is transferred to L. formosensis as L. formosensis subsp. bovis comb. nov. The type strain of L. formosensis subsp. bovis is BSN307T (=DSM 100577T=MCC 2824T=KCTC 21083T=LMG 30663T). The type strain of L. formosensis subsp. formosensis is 516T (=NBRC 109475T=BCRC 80576T).

Abstract
Thirteen Gram-stain-positive bacterial strains were isolated from Chinese traditional pickle and the gut of honeybee (Apis mellifera). These strains were characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The data demonstrated that 12 of the 13 strains represented eight novel species belonging to the genera Apilactobacillus, Secundilactobacillus, Levilactobacillus and Lacticaseibacillus; strains HN36-1T, 887-11T, F79-211-2T, 866-3T, 6-5(1)T, 13B17T, 117-1T and ZW152T were designated as the type strains. Based upon the data of polyphasic characterization obtained in the present study, eight novel species, Apilactobacillus nanyangensis sp. nov., Secundilactobacillus hailunensis sp. nov., Secundilactobacillus yichangensis sp. nov., Levilactobacillus andaensis sp. nov., Levilactobacillus wangkuiensis sp. nov., Levilactobacillus lanxiensis sp. nov., Lacticaseibacillus mingshuiensis sp. nov. and Lacticaseibacillus suilingensis sp. nov., are proposed and the type strains are HN36-1T (=JCM 33867T=CCTCC AB 2019385T), 887-11T (=NCIMB 15201T=CCM 8950T=JCM 33864T=CCTCC AB 2018396T), F79-211-2T (=NCIMB 15254T=JCM 33866T=CCTCC AB 2019384T), 866-3T (=JCM 33863T=CCTCC AB 2019383T), 6-5(1)T (=NCIMB 15229T=CCM 8977T=JCM 33564T=CCTCC AB 2019168T), 13B17T (=NCIMB 15230T=CCM 8979T=JCM 33565T=CCTCC AB 2019167T), 117-1T (=NCIMB 15232T=CCM 8980T=JCM 33567T) and ZW152T (=JCM 34363T=CCTCC AB 2020299T=LMG 32143T=CCM 9110T), respectively.

Abstract
Currently, Lactococcus lactis contains four subspecies: L. lactis subsp. lactis, L. lactis subsp. hordniae, L. lactis subsp. cremoris and L. lactis subsp. tructae. In the study of Pérez et al., these four subspecies could be clearly divided into two groups based on recA sequence analysis: L. lactis subsp. lactis and L. lactis subsp. hordniae; L. lactis subsp. cremoris and L. lactis subsp. tructae. The two groups had a relatively low DNA-DNA hybridization value (about 60 %). In the present study, the taxonomic position of L. lactis subsp. cremoris and L. lactis subsp. tructae was re-examined based on sequence analyses of 16S rRNA, rpoB, recA and pheS genes, average nucleotide identity (ANI) values and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values. The result of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that L. lactis subsp. cremoris NCDO 607T and L. lactis subsp. tructae L105T were phylogenetically related to the type strains of L. lactis subsp. hordniae, L. lactis subsp. lactis, Lactococcus taiwanensis, Lactococcus kimchii, Lactococcus allomyrinae, Lactococcus protaetiae, Lactococcus hircilactis, Lactococcus fujiensis and Lactococcus nasutitermitis. The 16S rRNA gene, rpoB, recA, pheS and concatenated rpoB, recA and pheS sequence similarities, ANI values, and dDDH values between the type strains of L. lactis subsp. cremoris, L. lactis subsp. tructae and phylogenetically related species were 93.5-99.4 %, 83.3-97.6 %, 80.6-92.4 %, 79.7-92.7 %, 83.5-94.3 %, 72.4-86.9 % and 21.4-32.5 %, respectively. Lower than 95-96 % ANI values and lower than 70 % dDDH values confirmed that the type strains of L. lactis subsp. cremoris and L. lactis subsp. tructae represent a novel species in the genus Lactococcus. Because L. lactis subsp. cremoris was proposed and validated before L. lactis subsp. tructae, L. lactis subsp. cremoris is elevated to the species level as Lactococcus cremoris sp. nov. and L. lactis subsp. tructae is transferred to L. cremoris as L. cremoris subsp. tructae comb. nov. The type strain of L. cremoris sp. nov. is NCDO 607T (=ATCC 19257T=DSM 20069T=JCM 16167T=LMG 6897T=NBRC 100676T). The type strain of L. cremoris subsp. tructae comb. nov. is L105T (=NBRC 110453T=DSM 21502T=JCM 31125T=LMG 24662T).

Abstract
Enterococcus lactis was published in the International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology in June 2012. Enterococcus xinjiangensis was published in Current Microbiology in 2016 and validated in November 2020. In the present study, the relationship between E. lactis and E. xinjiangensis was re-evaluated. In the 16S rRNA gene phylogeny, E. xinjiangensis was closely related to E. lactis and Enterococcus faecium. The type strains of E. xinjiangensis and E. lactis shared 99.8 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, 98.5 % pheS sequence similarity, 99.9 % rpoA sequence similarity, 98.7 % average nucleotide identity (ANI) value and 88.9 % digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) value, indicating that they represent the same species. Meanwhile, although the type strains of E. xinjiangensis and E. faecium also shared 99.8 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, 97.1 % pheS sequence similarity and 99.6 % rpoA sequence similarity, 94.7 % ANI and 59.1 % dDDH values indicated that they represent two different species. On the basis of the results present here, we propose Enterococcus xinjiangensis Ren et al. 2020 as a later heterotypic synonym of Enterococcus lactis Morandi et al. 2012.

Abstract
Recently, the members of the genus Lactobacillus have been reclassified by Zheng et al. At the same time, Lactobacillus buchneri subsp. silagei, Lactobacillus zhaodongensis, Lactobacillus argentoratensis and Lactobacillus zeae have been successively and validly published, and Lactobacillus kosoi has also been reclassified. In the present study, all these species and subspecies were re-evaluated by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis or a combination of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and phylogenomic treeing. On the basis of the results presented here, we propose to reclassify Lactobacillus zhaodongensis, Lactobacillus zeae, Lactobacillus argentoratensis and Lactobacillus buchneri subsp. silagei as Lacticaseibacillus zhaodongensis comb. nov., Lacticaseibacillus zeae comb. nov., Lactiplantibacillus argentoratensis comb. nov. and Lentilactobacillus buchneri subsp. silagei comb. nov., respectively and Apilactobacillus kosoi as a later heterotypic synonym of Apilactobacillus micheneri.

Abstract
In the present study, the taxonomic positions of five strains (C, 17-2, LMG 10779T, LMG 18969 and LMG 11483) of Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides were re-evaluated by a polyphasic approach, including the analyses of 16S rRNA, pheS and rpoA gene sequences, cellular fatty acids, average nucleotide and amino acid identities (ANI and AAI), digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH), and phenotypic features. Based on rpoA sequence analysis, the five strains and L. pseudomesenteroides LMG 11482T were divided into two groups: strains C, LMG 10779T and LMG 18969; strains 17-2, LMG 11483 and LMG 11482T. Each of the two groups had almost identical rpoA sequences. The rpoA sequence similarity between strain LMG 10779T and L. pseudomesenteroides LMG 11482T was 95.6 %. Strains LMG 11483 and 17-2 had 98.1 and 97.2 % ANI values, 83.5 and 73.2 % dDDH values, and a 97.0 % AAI value with L. pseudomesenteroides LMG 11482T, greater than the threshold for species demarcation, indicating that strains LMG 11483 and 17-2 belong to L. pseudomesenteroides. Strains LMG 18969 and C shared 97.1 and 98.2 % ANI values, 73.4 and 83.2 % dDDH values, and 96.9 and 96.6 % AAI values with strain LMG 10779T, greater than the threshold for species demarcation, indicating that strains LMG 10779T, LMG 18969 and C represent the same species. The ANI, dDDH and AAI values between strain LMG 10779T and the type strains of phylogenetically related species were 75.2-92.5, 20.0-48.2 and 75.3-93.9 %, respectively, below the thresholds for species demarcation, indicating that strain LMG 10779T represents a novel species within the genus Leuconostoc. On the basis of the results presented here, (i) strains 17-2 and LMG 11483 belong to L. pseudomesenteroides, and (ii) strains LMG 10779T, LMG 18969 and C are considered to represent a novel species within the genus Leuconostoc, for which the name Leuconostoc falkenbergense sp. nov. is proposed with the type strain LMG 10779T (=CCUG 27119T).

Abstract
In 2018, Nouioui et al. transferred
Bifidobacterium gallinarum
and
Bifidobacterium saeculare
to
Bifidobacterium pullorum
as
B. pullorum
subsp.
gallinarum
and
B. pullorum
subsp.
saeculare
on the basis of digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) values. These two new subspecies were validated in the same year. However, we found that the genome (GenBank/ENA/DDBJ accession number JGZJ01000000) of
B. pullorum
used by Nouioui et al. in the dDDH analysis cannot represent
B. pullorum
. So, the taxonomic relationship between
B. gallinarum
,
B. saeculare
and
B. pullorum
should be re-examined.
B. pullorum
DSM 20433T had 88.7–89.0 % average nucleotide identity (ANI) values and 37.5–38.0 % dDDH values to the type strains of
B. gallinarum
and
B. saeculare
, respectively, less than the threshold for species demarcation, confirming that
B. pullorum
represents a different species from
B. gallinarum
and
B. saeculare
. The ANI values and dDDH values between the type strains of
B. gallinarum
and
B. saeculare
were 96.7–96.9 % and 73.0–73.3 %, respectively, greater than the threshold for species demarcation, confirming that they represent the same species. Relatively low dDDH values (less than the 79–80 % threshold for subspecies demarcation) between the type strains of
B. gallinarum
and
B. saeculare
indicated that
B. saeculare
can be considered as a subspecies of
B. gallinarum
. On the basis of the results presented here, (i)
B. gallinarum
and
B. saeculare
should not be transferred to
B. pullorum
; (ii) we propose
B. saeculare
Biavati et al. 1992 as a later heterotypic synonym of
B. gallinarum
Watabe et al. 1983 and as a new subspecies of
B. gallinarum
, for which the name
B. gallinarum
subsp. saeculare subsp. nov. is proposed.

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.

Abstract
The taxonomic positions of Enterobacter oryziphilus and Enterobacter oryzendophyticus were re-examined on the basis of concatenated partial rpoB, atpD, gyrB and infB gene sequence analysis. The reconstructed phylogenetic tree based upon concatenated partial rpoB, atpD, gyrB and infB gene sequences clearly showed that E. oryziphilus and E. oryzendophyticus and all defined species of the genus Kosakonia form a clade separate from other genera of the family Enterobacteriaceae, and, therefore, these species of the genus Enterobacter should be transferred to the genus Kosakonia. E. oryziphilus and E. oryzendophyticus are reclassified as K. oryziphila comb. nov. (type strain REICA_142T=LMG 26429T=NCCB 100393T) and K. oryzendophytica comb. nov. (type strain REICA_082T=LMG 26432T=NCCB 100390T), respectively.

Abstract
Strains LMG 8159 and LMG 11499 were reclassified by a polyphasic approach, including 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer (IGS) sequence analysis, (GTG)(5)-PCR fingerprinting, RAPD fingerprinting, fatty acid methyl ester analysis and an analysis of phenotypic features using API 50 CH. The two strains were closely related to the type strains of the three defined subspecies of Leuconostoc mesenteroides, showing 99.7-99.9% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, 99.2% 16S-23S rRNA gene intergenic spacer sequence similarity, 97.1-97.4% pheS gene sequence similarity and 98.0-98.2% rpoA gene sequence similarity. Low atpA gene sequence similarity (91.4-91.7%), (GTG)(5)-PCR fingerprinting, RAPD fingerprinting, fatty acid compositions and phenotypic features allowed us to differentiate strains LMG 8159 and LMG 11499 from all established subspecies within L. mesenteroides. Based upon the data obtained in the present and previous studies, a novel subspecies is proposed within the species L. mesenteroides, Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. suionicum subsp. nov., with the type strain LMG 8159(T) (=ATCC 9135(T) =DSM 20241(T) =NCIMB 6992(T)).

Abstract
Eighty-eight root-nodule isolates from Lespedeza spp. grown in temperate and subtropical regions of China were characterized by a polyphasic approach. Nine clusters were defined in numerical taxonomy and SDS-PAGE analysis of whole cell proteins. Based upon further characterizations of amplified 16S rDNA restriction analysis (ARDRA), PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphism of ribosomal IGS, 16S rDNA sequence analysis and DNA-DNA hybridization, these isolates were identified as Bradyrhizobium japonicum, B. elkanii, B. yuanmingense, Mesorhizobium amorphae, M. huakuii, Sinorhizobium meliloti and three genomic species related to B. yuanmingense, Rhizobium gallicum and R. tropici. The Bradyrhizobium species and R. tropici-related rhizobia were mainly isolated from the subtropical region and the species of Mesorhizobium, S. meliloti and R. gallicum-related species were all isolated from the temperate region. Phylogenetic analyses of nifH and nodC indicated that the symbiotic genes of distinct rhizobial species associated with Lespedeza spp. might have different origins and there was no evidence for lateral gene transfer of symbiotic genes. The results obtained in the present study and in a previous report demonstrated that Lespedeza spp. are nodulated by rhizobia with diverse genomic backgrounds and these Lespedeza-nodulating rhizobia were not specific to the host species, but specific to their geographic origins.
