Abstract

A coccal-shaped organism, designated 516, was isolated from (fermented broccoli stems), a traditional fermented food in Taiwan. 16S rRNA gene sequencing results showed that strain 516 had 98.9 % sequence similarity to that of the type strain NBRC 100934. Comparison of three housekeeping genes, , and , revealed that strain 516 was well separated from NBRC 100934. DNA–DNA hybridization studies indicated that strain 516 had low DNA relatedness with NBRC 100934 (46.1 %). The DNA G+C content of strain 516 was 38.1 mol% and the major fatty acids were C (22.7 %), C cyclo ω8 (17.9 %) and summed feature 7 (29.0 %). Based on the evidence, strain 516 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 516 ( = NBRC 109475 = BCRC 80576).
