AI Article Synopsis
- A new bacterial species has been identified from a foot wound infection in a Dutch traveler returning from Bali, Indonesia.
- Genomic sequencing provides strong evidence for its classification as a novel species within its complex, supported by differences in cellular fatty acid composition and biochemical tests.
- Further research is needed to explore this new species' ecological role and potential pathogenicity.
Article Abstract
This article introduces a new species cultivated from a human foot wound infection in a Dutch traveller returning from the island of Bali, Indonesia: sp. nov. Based on the genomic sequence, there is strong molecular evidence for assigning the strain to a novel species within the complex. Differences in cellular fatty acid spectrum and biochemical tests underline these findings. Its ecological niche and pathogenicity require further study. The type strain is DSM111914 (JCM34415).
