ABSTRACT
Four strains (MSK211, MSK294T, MSK312, MSK433) of a novel Dolosigranulum species were cultured from nasopharyngeal swabs collected from mother-infant dyads in southern Botswana. These strains grew optimally on tryptic soy agar with 5% sheep blood solid medium and in fastidious bacteria broth. Colonies on tryptic soy agar with 5% sheep blood agar appeared grey or white with a flat, smooth surface and variable alpha haemolysis. Cells were Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, non-motile cocci that lacked catalase or oxidase activity. Major fatty acids were C16ââ0 (palmitic acid), C18ââ1 ω9c (oleic acid), and C18ââ0 (stearic acid). Analyses of 16S rRNA gene sequences identified these strains as belonging to the genus Dolosigranulum (family Carnobacteriaceae), which currently contains only a single validly published species (Dolosigranulum pigrum). Whole-genome sequencing revealed that the genomes of these strains are 1.98-2.07 Mbp in size and have a G+C content of 39.6-39.9 mol%. Comparisons of these genomes to publicly available genomes of D. pigrum yielded average nucleotide identities and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization values of 92.3-92.9% and 49.1-51.4%, respectively. These results indicate that these strains represent a novel species of Dolosigranulum, for which we propose the name Dolosigranulum savutiense sp. nov., with the type strain MSK294T (=DSM 117171T=JCM 36673T).
