Actinomyces gaoshouyii sp. nov., isolated from plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae)

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2017
Two strains (pika_113T and pika_114) of a previously undescribed Actinomyces-like bacterium were recovered from the intestinal contents of plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) on the Tibet-Qinghai Plateau, China.

Neisseria chenwenguii sp. nov. isolated from the rectal contents of a plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae). [PDF]

Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek, 2019
Two Gram-stain negative, catalase positive, coccus shaped bacteria, designated 10023T and 10010, were isolated from the rectal contents of a plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, China. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, phylogenetic trees showed that these two isolates (10023T, 10010) group with members of the genus ...
