Budvicia diplopodorum sp. nov. and emended description of the genus Budvicia

Abstract

A Gram-negative, rod-shaped, weakly motile, non-spore-forming bacterium (D9 T ) was isolated from the gut of Cylindroiulus fulviceps (Diplopoda) on 1/3-strength nutrient agar plates. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, strain D9T was shown to be phylogenetically closely related to the type strain of Budvicia aquatica, the sole species of the genus Budvicia, family Enterobacteriaceae.

Characterization of six clinical isolates of Chimaeribacter gen. nov., a novel genus related to the Yersiniaceae family and the three species Chimaeribacter arupi sp. nov., Chimaeribacter coloradensis sp. nov, and Chimaeribacter californicus sp. nov.

“…This clade likely constitutes a novel genus within the Enterobacterales and may be comprised of three individual species: one species represented by the isolates 2016-Iso1, 2016-Iso2, 2016-Iso3 T and 2013-Iso5, and two additional, distinct species represented by 2016-Iso4 T and 2015-Iso6 T . This conclusion is also supported by the 16S rRNA gene tree (), which yielded a somewhat different topology () displaying previously observed phylogenetic inconsistencies, such as the apparent relatedness of the genera Budvicia and Yersinia [22]. In order to confirm that our strains comprise three individual species, we performed pairwise whole-genome comparisons to determine their average nucleotide identity (ANI) (Table S5).…”

“…archeti’ , we included in the phylogenetic trees species of the following genera: (1) Ewingella , Cedecea and Raoultella , as the top three matches of each strain when mining the NCBI Bacterial and Archea 16S rRNA database using blastn ; (2) Serratia and Yersinia , given several shared phenotypic traits; (3) Budvicia , which initially appeared to be a close relative based on 16S rRNA gene sequences (see Table S1; included only in the 16S rRNA gene tree); (4) Pantoea and Cronobacter , as examples of yellow-pigmented Enterobacterales . The sequences of the type strains used were in part published [13, 14, 16–27] and in part derived from genome drafts deposited in the NCBI. The relative accession numbers are listed in Table S4 and in .…”

Jinshanibacter, a new genus of Budviciaceae: identification of Jinshanibacter zhutongyuii sp. nov. and Jinshanibacter xujianqingii sp. nov. isolated from cloacal content of snow finch (Montifringilla taczanowskii)

“…Family Budviciaceae was first described in 2016 as a member of the order Enterobacteriales [1] and currently comprises three genera: Budvicia [2,3], Leminorella [4], and Pragia [5] (https://www. namesforlife.…”

“…Although all members of this small group are closely related and have a relatively similar biochemical profile, they occupy quite different ecological niches. Although Budvicia was originally isolated from freshwater, 28 several other isolates have been described from the intestinal microflora of insects, 26,29 Diplopoda , 5 and salmonids. 30 A possible clinical relevance for B. aquatica was reported by Corbin et al 4 when this bacterium was isolated from a human clinical sample.…”

“…3 However, it is possible that their pathogenic/symbiotic potential will be revealed in the future, as it was for Budvicia . 4,5 …”
