Abstract:
Six strains, KI11_D11 T , KI4_B1, KI11_C11 T , KI16_H9 T , KI4_A6 T and KI3_B9 T , were isolated from insects and flowers on Kangaroo Island, South Australia. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene phylogeny, strains KI11_D11 T , KI4_B1, KI11_C11 T , KI16_H9 T , KI4_A6 T were found to be closely related to Fructilactobacillus ixorae Ru20-1 T . Due to the lack of a whole genome sequence for this species, whole genome sequencing of Fructilactobacillus ixorae Ru20-1 T was undertaken. KI3_B9 T was found to be closely related to Fructobacillus tropaeoli F214-1 T . Utilizing core gene phylogenetics and whole genome analyses, such as determination of AAI, ANI and dDDH, we propose that these six isolates represent five novel species with the names Fructilactobacillus cliffordii (KI11_D11 T = LMG 32130 T = NBRC 114988 T ), Fructilactobacillus hinvesii (KI11_C11 T = LMG 32129 T = NBRC 114987 T ), Fructilactobacillus myrtifloralis (KI16_H9 T = LMG 32131 T = NBRC 114989 T ) Fructilactobacillus carniphilus (KI4_A6 T = LMG 32127 T = NBRC 114985 T ) and Fructobacillus americanaquae (KI3_B9 T = LMG 32124 T = NBRC 114983 T ). Chemotaxonomic analyses detected no fructophilic characters for these strains of member of the genus Fructilactobacillus . KI3_B9 T was found to be obligately fructophilic, similarly to its phylogenetic neighbours in the genus Fructobacillus . This study represents the first isolation, to our knowledge, of novel species in the family Lactobacillaceae from the Australian wild.
