Article Synopsis
- Strain MS2379, isolated from a bovine manure fermentation system in Texas, shows unique genetic characteristics, with low DNA-DNA relatedness to closely related species despite phylogenetic similarities based on 16S rRNA gene sequences.
- The strain exhibits distinctive morphological features, such as rod-shaped cells that are Gram-variable and produce specific fatty acids, alongside a G+C content of 45.9 mol%.
- MS2379 has a diverse lipid profile, ferments glucose producing acids and gases, and demonstrates a growth range of 10-45 °C, suggesting it should be classified as a novel species in the genus with proposed name sp. nov.
