Abstract

was originally isolated from Japanese horseradish (), but recently some isolates collected from potato plants and tubers displaying blackleg and soft rot symptoms were also assigned to . Here, combining genomic and phenotypical data, we re-evaluated their taxonomic position. PacBio and Illumina technologies were used to complete the genome sequences of CFBP 3304 and RNS 08-42-1A. Multi-locus sequence analysis showed that the strains RNS 08-42-1A, SCC3193, CFIA1002 and WPP163, which were collected from potato plant environment, constituted a separate clade from the original Japanese horseradish . The taxonomic position of these strains was also supported by calculation of the DNA–DNA hybridization, genome average nucleotide indentity, alignment fraction and average nucleotide indentity values. In addition, they were phenotypically distinguished from strains by producing acids from (+)-raffinose, -(+)--lactose, (+)-galactose and (+)-melibiose but not from methyl --glycopyranoside, (+)-maltose or malonic acid. The name sp. nov. is proposed for this taxon; the type strain is RNS 08-42-1A (=CFBP 8475=LMG 29774).
