Vagococcus acidifermentans sp. nov., isolated from an acidogenic fermentation bioreactor Wang, Liang and Cui, Ying-Shun and Kwon, Chang Seob and Lee, Sung-Taik and Lee, Jung-Sook and Im, Wan-Taek,, 61, 1123-1126 (2011), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijs.0.022087-0, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= A Gram-staining-positive, coccus-shaped, non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic bacterium, designated AC-1T, was isolated from an acidogenic fermentation bioreactor treating food wastewater. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain AC-1T was shown to belong to the genus Vagococcus. The closest phylogenetic relatives were Vagococcus elongatus PPC9T (97.4 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Vagococcus penaei CD276T (96.7 %) and Vagococcus carniphilus ATCC BAA-640T (96.6 %). The major fatty acids were C18 : 1ω9c (24.8 %) and C16 : 0 (19.5 %) and the G+C content of genomic DNA was 44.2 mol%, which supported the affiliation of strain AC-1T to the genus Vagococcus. Strain AC-1T and V. elongatus DSM 21480T exhibited 11 % DNA–DNA relatedness. Physiological and biochemical tests differentiated strain AC-1T from the type strains of recognized species of the genus Vagococcus. Therefore, strain AC-1T is considered to represent a novel species, for which the name Vagococcus acidifermentans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is AC-1T ( = KCTC 13418T  = LMG 24798T)., language=, type=
