“…We document the genome sequences of Enterobacteriaceae isolated from commercial cucumber fermentation belonging to three genera, including Enterobacter, Leclercia , and Pantoea. Leclercia adecarboxylata and Leclercia pneumoniae are emerging pathogens associated with infections in children and the immunocompromised ( 1 , 2 ). L. adecarboxylata is also associated with fresh tomato and pepper, and water sources ( 3 , 4 ).…”

We report five whole-genome sequences, along with annotations, representing Enterobacteriaceae from the genera Enterobacter ( n = 1), Pantoea ( n = 1), and Leclercia ( n = 3) isolated from commercial cucumber fermentations performed in North Carolina and Minnesota, USA.

The genera Klebsiella , Enterobacter , Citrobacter , and Cronobacter are commonly encountered in clinical laboratories and cause a range of infections in humans, including bacteremia, meningitis, wound infections, and infections of the respiratory and urinary tracts. This chapter contains information not only on the taxonomy, detection, and identification of these genera but also on the global issue of antimicrobial resistance, which is especially pertinent to this group of organisms. Klebsiella pneumoniae is a significant pathogen in both community and hospital settings. Klebsiella granulomatis is the agent of donovanosis or granuloma inguinale, a disease characterized by painless, slowly progressive, vascular genital ulcers. Enterobacter spp. are opportunistic pathogens that are found in the natural environment in habitats such as water, sewage, vegetables, and soil. They are also commensal bacteria in the human gastrointestinal tract. The detection of antimicrobial‐resistant organisms by laboratories is a critical step required for appropriate management of patients and infection prevention and control efforts.

Although some nomenclature changes have caused consternation among clinical microbiologists, the discovery of novel taxa and improving classification of existing groups of organisms is exciting and adds to our understanding of microbial pathogenesis. In this mini-review, we present an in-depth summary of novel taxonomic designations and revisions to prokaryotic taxonomy that were published in 2022. Henceforth, these bacteriology taxonomic summaries will appear annually. Several of the novel Gram-positive organisms have been associated with disease, namely, the Corynebacterium kroppenstedtii -like organisms Corynebacterium parakroppenstedtii sp. nov. and Corynebacterium pseudokroppenstedtii sp. nov. A newly described Streptococcus species, Streptococcus toyakuensis sp. nov., is noteworthy for exhibiting multi-drug resistance. Among the novel Gram-negative pathogens, Vibrio paracholerae sp. nov. stands out as an organism associated with diarrhea and sepsis and has probably been co-circulating with pandemic Vibrio cholerae for decades. Many new anaerobic organisms have been described in this past year largely from genetic assessments of gastrointestinal microbiome collections. With respect to revised taxa, as discussed in previous reviews, the genus Bacillus continues to undergo further division into additional genera and reassignment of existing species into them. Reassignment of two subspecies of Fusobacterium nucleatum to species designations ( Fusobacterium animalis sp. nov. and Fusobacterium vincentii sp. nov.) is also noteworthy. As was typical of previous reviews, literature updates for selected clinically relevant organisms discovered between 2017 and 2021 have been included.
