 International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology 71 (5), summary

Five novel bacterial strains, Marseille-P1476 (=CSURP1476=DSM 100642), Marseille-P3256 (=CSURP3256=CECT 9977), Marseille-P2936 (=CSURP2936=DSM 103159), Marseille-P2912 (=CSURP2912=DSM 103345) and Marseille-P3197 (=CSURP3197=CCUG 71847), were isolated from various human specimens. These five strains were not identified at the species level by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry. Following 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons with the GenBank database, the highest nucleotide sequence similarities of all studied strains were obtained to members of the paraphyletic genus . A polyphasic taxono-genomic strategy (16S rRNA gene-based and core genome-based phylogeny, genomic comparison, phenotypic and biochemical characteristics) enabled us to better classify these strains and reclassify species. Among the studied strains, Marseille-P1476, Marseille-P2936 and Marseille-P3197 belonged to new species of the genus for which we propose the names sp. nov., sp. nov. and sp. nov., respectively. Strains Marseille-P2912 and Marseille-P3256 belonged to a new genus for which the names gen. nov., sp. nov. and gen. nov., sp. nov. are proposed, respectively. We also propose the creation of the genera gen. nov., gen. nov. and gen. nov. and the reclassification of as comb. nov., as comb. nov., and as comb. nov.
