Abstract

A novel strain of the genus , named AMBF275, was isolated from fermented carrot juice, a salted fermented beverage dominated by lactic acid bacteria. The results of phylogenetic analysis indicated that the 16S rRNA gene of AMBF275 is most similar to the 16S rRNA gene of FI11369 with a sequence similarity of 99.4 %. However, a genome-wide comparison using average nucleotide identity (ANI) revealed that AMBF275 and FI11369 have an ANI of only 82.35 %. ANI values between AMBF275 and other representative strains of species of the genus from the Genome Taxonomy Database (GTDB) were even lower than this 82.35 %, indicating that AMBF275 represents a distinct species. We thus propose the name sp. nov. for this novel species, with AMBF275 (=LMG 32885, =CECT 30757) as the type strain.
