Veillonella seminalis sp. nov., a novel anaerobic Gram-stain-negative coccus from human clinical samples, and emended description of the genus Veillonella

Abstract excerpt

Ten isolates of unknown, Gram-stain-negative, anaerobic cocci were recovered from human clinical samples, mainly from semen. On the basis of their phenotypic features, including morphology, main metabolic end products, gas production, nitrate reduction and decarboxylation of succinate, the strains were identified as members of the genus Veillonella. Multi-locus sequence analysis and corresponding phylogenies were...
