Transfer of Bifidobacterium inopinatum and Bifidobacterium denticolens to Scardovia inopinata gen. nov., comb. nov., and Parascardovia denticolens gen. nov., comb. nov., respectively.

Abstract excerpt

Bifidobacterium inopinatum Crociani et al. 1996 and Bifidobacterium denticolens Crociani et al. 1996 have distinct phenotypic characteristics and low G+C contents compared with other bifidobacteria. In the 16S rRNA phylogenetic tree, these two species grouped in an independent subcluster. In our previous work, partial heat-shock protein 60 (HSP60) gene-sequence analysis also indicated that these two species had...
