Fudania jinshanensis gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from faeces of the Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii) in China

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2019
Two hitherto unknown bacteria (strains 313T and 352) were recovered from the faeces of Tibetan antelopes on the Tibet-Qinghai Plateau, PR China. Cells were rod-shaped and Gram-stain-positive. The optimal growth conditions were at 37 °C and pH 7. The isolates were closely related to Actinotignum sanguinis (92.6 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity ...
