abstract= A novel coccus-shaped, Gram-stain-positive, non-motile and facultative aerobic bacterium, designated strain D7T301T, was isolated from the small intestine of a marten, Martes flavigula, which was killed on the road in Pocheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea. Grown on a tryptic soy yeast agar plate, colonies had a creamy colour and irregular form. The new isolate formed a monophyletic clade with Vagococcus penaei CD276T on a phylogenetic consensus tree based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence. The isolate grew optimally at 37 °C and pH 7 in the presence of 0.5 % (w/v) NaCl. The isolate was catalase- and oxidase-negative. The cell-wall peptidoglycan was type A4α l-Lys-d-Asp. The major cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0, C14 : 0, and C16 : 1 ω9c. The predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone MK-7 (85.1 %). The DNA G+C content based on genome sequencing was 33.8 mol%. The average nucleotide identity value obtained from comparative genomic analysis between strain D7T301T and V. penaei CIP 109914T was 72.6 %. On the basis of the phenotypic, phylogenetic, biochemical, chemotaxonomic, and genotypic analyses, Vagococcus martis is proposed as a novel species of the genus Vagococcus . The type strain is D7T301T (=KCTC 21069T=JCM 31178T).,
